Buwayhid

The Buwayhids or Buyyids were an Ismai'ili Shi'ite tribal confederation from Daylam, a region on the southern shore of the Caspian Sea. During the 900's, Buwayhid dynasties took power in Fars (southwestern Iran, 934-1062); Rayy (977-1029); Jibal (932-1028); Kerman (936-1048). From 945-1055, a Buwayhid dynasty ruled Baghdad and most of Iraq. During the mid 1000's the Buwayhid dynasties all fell to the Seljuks or their allies. See also: Full list of Iranian Kingdoms
