The Soviet Communists overthrew the last Khan of Khiva Sayid Abdullah like they did to Bukharan Emir Mohammed Alim Khan in 1920.<br /><br />Those two monarchies were the rightful rulers of what is now Uzbekistan.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8783969302315257415.post-92089836721774516982016-10-21T23:55:29.789-05:002016-10-21T23:55:29.789-05:00The Sultan of Darfur Ali dinar also sided with the...The Sultan of Darfur Ali dinar also sided with the Central Powers and as a result he was killed in action during a battle with the British and the Darfur Sultanate's Keira Dynasty was deposed by Britain. His descendants live in Sudan today.<br /><br />The Saudi royals also seized on the aftermath of the war to absorb the lands of two Sharifian monarchies - the Kingdom of Hejaz and Idrisid Emirate of Asir. <br /><br />The Hashemites of Hejaz, the Hashemites of the Mutawakkilite Kingdom of Yemen, the Idrisids of Asir, the Senussi Idrisids of Libya, and the Alaouites of Morocco are all members of the Sharifian family- descendants of the Islamic Prophet Muhammad.<br /><br />The Saudi royal family were not Sharifian and they were alarmed by Sharif Hussein's declaration of a Caliphate in Hejaz in 1924.

The fact that he disbanded the armed forces and fled gave precedence to the dynasty from Serbia who stuck with the troops and fought to the bitter end - my great grandfather was a soldier of Montenegro who, like most of his colleagues, refused to surrender, joined the army that did not leave them out to dry and got the chance to liberate his hometown from Austrians when the counteroffensive had commenced.
