At their height, the Umayyads controlled 50% of the Iberian Peninsula, all of Northern Africa (mostly along the Mediterranean Coast), the entire Middle East (except the Western half of Anatolia), and parts of Iran, Turkmenistan, Afghanistan, and Pakistan.
The Umayyads lost this empire rather quickly when the Abbassids led a revolution and took power in 750 C.E. Abd el-Rahman, the only surviving Umayyad fled to Andalucia (Southern Spain) and re-established the Umayyad Dynasty in Andalucia (that controlled Andalucia exclusively) for another 300 years until in 1031 C.E. Hisham III, the last Umayyad died.
