The Byzantine Empire was in control of these nations. The spread of Islam throughout the Arabian Peninsula and into these regions during the 7th and 8th centuries was largely due to Arab conquests of Byzantine territories in the area. As a result, the influence of Islamic culture and religion spread and today these nations follow Islam as their primary religion.
