Best Answer

This question chiefly refers to the geographic regions including Northern Africa, Asia Minor, the Middle East, and South/Southwest Asia. Due to the tremendous diversity of identity, development, and individual cultural histories in Islam there is no such construct of a monolithic 'Muslim World.' What is known is the Imperial European powers of the British and French especially were able to exploit sectarian differences towards advantageous trade, political alliances, and ultimate land partitions in their departures, such as in India/Pakistan and Palestine/Israel.
