The earliest recorded peace treaty was between two Middle Eastern empires, and was written millennia before the religion of Islam came into being. Many of the ancient world's most famous conflicts happened in the Middle East, long before Islam. The Judahite Revolts against the 2nd Babylonian Empire, resulting in the destruction of Solomon's Temple. The conquests of Cyrus the Great and Alexander the Great. The many wars Rome fought with inhabitants of the Middle East, including the Parthians, Sassanids, and Judeans.
