Basra

Basra is a city of lower Mesopotamia on the Shatt al-Arab, grown from a military camp that Utba ibn Ghazwan set up on the orders of Umar ibn al-Khattab during the early conquests. It became a great commercial, industrial and agricultural city and a cradle of Arabic grammar, Mu'tazilism, mysticism and Arabic prose. It declined after the foundation of Baghdad and the Mongol conquest of 656/1258, then revived as Iraq's modern port, with oil found near Zubayr in 1368/1948.
