Where Does Assassin’s Creed Mirage Take Place?

The Assassin’s Creed series makes a point of bringing players to real-world locations during interesting times in history. Assassin’s Creed Mirage has taken the series almost full circle because while the soft reboot Origins goes back to Roman times and Odyssey goes back even further to the Peloponnesian Wars, Mirage jumps forward to the ninth century and the early years of the Abbasid Caliphate.
