When the Abbasid dynasty overthrew the Umayyad dynasty in 750 CE, they ordered the execution of many Umayyad leaders to eliminate any potential threats to their rule. This led to a significant purge, where members of the Umayyad family were hunted down. However, one notable survivor, Abd al-Rahman I, escaped to Spain, where he established the Umayyad Emirate of Córdoba. The Abbasids also shifted the center of power from Damascus to Baghdad, fostering a new cultural and intellectual renaissance.
