Baghdad fell in 1258 when the Mongol forces, led by Hulagu Khan, besieged the city as part of their campaign to expand their empire. The Mongols breached the city’s defenses, leading to widespread destruction and a massacre of its inhabitants. The fall of Baghdad marked the end of the Islamic Golden Age and the decline of the Abbasid Caliphate, as the city was a major center of culture and learning at the time. The event significantly altered the political and cultural landscape of the Middle East.
