None. Caliphs came to power in the Medieval Period. As for the Medieval period, the Caliphs were the leaders of the Muslim Empires called Caliphates. The four first Caliphs were called the Rightly-Guided Caliphs and they also had some religious authority in Islam. Because of the barbarity of the Umayyad Caliphs, the religious authority left the Caliphs and vested in the local Imams. Religious authority would return to the Caliphs in the mid-1500s in the Ottoman Empire until Atatürk abolished the Caliphate in 1936.
The first four caliphs, Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, and Ali, are held in special esteem because they were companions of the Prophet Muhammad, played crucial roles in the early development of Islam, and helped spread the faith. They are known as the "Rightly Guided Caliphs" due to their adherence to the teachings of the Prophet and their just rule.
