The Seljuks, a Turkish family, seized control of Baghdad in 1055 and defeated the Byzantine Empire in 1071, taking over most of Anatolia. To secure local support, the Seljuks embraced Persian culture, language, and Islam. Under Malik Shah, the Seljuk Empire grew powerful but fragmented after his death. The Seljuks confronted both the Crusaders and later the Mongols, with the Mongol conquest of Baghdad in 1258 marking the end of Seljuk rule.
