One of the most important contributions of the Umayyads was their development of a complex civil service, which allowed effective control over one of the territorially largest states in history up to that point. It was a model passed on to their successors in Baghdad, Cordoba, Cairo and Istanbul.

They also created the first professional standing army in Muslim history.

Ummayad were inspired of Romans or did they come up something new?
