The first Islamic State, also known as State of Medina, [4] was the first Islamic state established by Islamic prophet Muhammad in Medina in 622 under the Constitution of Medina. It represented the political unity of the Muslim Ummah (nation).
Medina was founded on November 30, 1818, [1] as part of the Connecticut Western Reserve. It was originally named Mecca, but an unincorporated community in Ohio already had that name, [7] so the name was changed. Both Mecca and Medina are Saudi Arabian cities particularly significant in Islam. Most early residents were farmers.
