The Eastern Caliphate is the eastern portions of the former Great Caliphate, consisting of territory from Palestine to Persia, and including Turkey and Arabia.

Most governments recognise the Eastern Caliphate as a political entity - the Western Caliphate does not, and maintains that the Eastern Caliphate is an illegal government and that its territory is an integral part of the Great Caliphate. The Great Caliphate no longer exists; both the East and West governments, in Baghdad and Cairo respectively, claim to be the legitimate government of the Great Caliphate and that the other is not.
