Where did the idea of a Muslim Caliphate come from? There are very dominant muslim countries why just not move there instead of trying to make the world notice? (lemmy.world)

I don't think it has anything to do with making the world notice.

I believe it's the same reason as why Europe formed the EU or why did the US unify into the United States instead of the colonies staying as separate countries.
