Kingdom in the Persian Gulf (11th century – 1622)
The Kingdom of Hormuz was a kingdom ruled by a dynasty of southern Arab origin. It was located in the eastern side of the Persian Gulf and extended as far as Bahrain in the west at its zenith. The Kingdom was established in the 11th century initially as a dependency of the Kerman Seljuk Sultanate, and later as an autonomous tributary of the Salghurid Turkmens and the Ilkhanate. In its last phase Hormuz became a client state of the Portuguese Empire in the East.
