The Sovereign Imperial and Royal House of Ghassan
The name "Ghassan" comes from the first Ghassanid State founded in 220 CE by HM King Jaffna Ibn Amir and comprehended parts of modern-day Syria, Jordan, Iraq, Lebanon, and Saudi Arabia. Since the fall of the first State in 638 CE, The Ghassanid Dynasty has ruled several other realms like the Byzantine Empire, the Rasulid Sultanate in modern-day Yemen, and the Principalities of Al-Aqoura and Zgharta-Zawye in modern-day Lebanon from 1211-1747 CE by the Christian branch of the family; and the Principality of Jabal Shammar (a transliteration of the surname Chemor) or Hail in modern-day Saudi Arabia until 1921 CE by the Muslim branch.
The Ghassanids are currently estimated in around 15 million people whithersoever dispersed around the world. Although originally from the Middle East, the vast majority of the Ghassanids live in South and North America victims of the ongoing exodus since the 19th century. Even being a minority in the Arab countries, the Ghassanid presence is still very strong and evident.
