The Seljuk Empire continued to rise in power in 1107, expanding its territory across the Middle East and into Anatolia. This expansion had significant implications for trade, culture, and the political landscape of the region.

The Seljuk Empire's cultural achievements and patronage of the arts influenced poets like Omar Khayyam, who wrote about the complexities of life and existence. The flourishing of Persian poetry during this period enriched the literary traditions of the Islamic world.
