Saladin and the Ottomans did try, managed to conquer but finally had to withdraw. So did the Ethipians in the 5th century AD. The Portuguese failed to conquer it alltogether, after the English left, the local rulers were pushed aside by the Saud family. In my opinion IF the Romans had taken over the Arabic penninsula, the only long term effect would have been that the Kuran would have been written in Latin. Best Great blog! M.
