There are many advances in civilization that were built during the establishment of the Saljuk dynasty, including the establishment of Madrasah Nizamiyah which was once led by a great scholar who was very famous among Muslims, namely Imam Al-Ghazali. This article was written in order to explain the history of the founding of the Saljuq dynasty, the development of its government and the progress of civilization achieved during its reign.
