It depends how you read this question.If by the "the Caliphs" you are referring to the four Rightly-Guided Caliphs, they were followed by Mu'awiya, the founder of the Umayyad Dynasty of Caliphs. If you are referring to the Caliphate as an institution, it was abolished in 1924 by the Republic of Turkey. However, most Muslim countries had operated with sovereign governments during the period of the Caliphate (in much the same way that most Catholic countries are not directly ruled by the Pope) and even the Caliph in the Ottoman Empire was purely a religious authority since the Ottoman Sultan wielded political power.
Umayyad Caliph Ibrahim ruled for a few weeks at the end of the year 744 C.E. This is the shortest reign of any Caliph.If you are referring to the Rightly-Guided Caliphs, Hassan ibn Ali ruled as Caliph for seven months in 661 C.E. before ceding power to Mu'awiya and conceding the end of the the Rightly-Guided Caliphs. Of the four dominant Rightly-Guided Caliphs, colleague Ibrahim El-Osery is correct that Abu Bakr ibn Quhafah reigned for the the shortest amount of time, 27 months from 632 C.E. to 634 C.E.
An Abbassid is a member of the dynasty of caliphs which ruled from Baghdad from around 750 to 1250, claiming ancestry of Abbas.
