The first civil war between Ali and the Umayyads, known as the First Fitna (656-661 CE), culminated in Ali's defeat. The conflict was marked by significant battles, including the Battle of Siffin, which ended inconclusively and led to arbitration. Ultimately, Ali was assassinated in 661 CE, and the Umayyad leader Muawiya ibn Abi Sufyan established the Umayyad Caliphate, marking a significant shift in Islamic leadership and governance. This event solidified the Umayyads' power and deepened the Sunni-Shia divide within the Muslim community.

What was the result of the civil wars between leaders on the wealthy and lower class during the second and first centuries?

The civil wars were not between the leaders of the wealthy and lower class. They were between military commanders who had the loyalty of their troops and used this loyalty to wage wars. There was a rift between the conservative Optmate faction, which favoured the interests of the aristocracy, and the Popularis faction which supported reforms aimed at helping the poor. This conflict eventually developed into fights between military leaders aligned with either faction. The result of the civil wars was the demise of the Republic and the beginning of personal rule by one man whom historians call the emperor, but the Romans called princeps.
