Hasan Sabbah
Hasan Sabbah was a Persian Nizari Ismaili leader who founded the Order of Assassins in the late 11th century. He is best known for establishing the mountain fortress of Alamut in Iran, which became a center of political intrigue and militant activity against his enemies, including the Abbasid Caliphate and the Seljuk Empire. Sabbah was a master of psychological warfare, using the promise of paradise to encourage loyalty among his followers, known as the Hashshashin. His legacy is steeped in legend, with tales of his 'paradise gardens' and the mysterious 'assassinations' carried out by his followers. He ruled from Alamut for 34 years until his death in 1124, leaving a lasting impact on both history and popular culture.
