During this period, (24) volumes were released, comprising (31) issues. The journal underwent three phases over the studied period, during which the number of issues released each year and the number of research papers varied. The second phase had the highest number of papers, with (11) studies accounting for (46%), followed by the third phase with (83) papers at (34.43%), and the first phase with (47) papers representing (19.50%) Part two focused on the scholars whom contributed materials to the journal. In fact the total are (157) scholars from (33) countries and (77) universities across North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Australia. Europe ranked first in terms of the number of universities and researchers, contributing (59.74%) of the universities, with (71) researchers making up (45.22%) of the total. North America followed with (18) universities, at (23.37%), producing (57) researchers, or (36.30%) of the total. Asia ranked third with eight universities, representing (10.38%), and (23) researchers, accounting for (14.64%). Africa came fourth, with four universities at (5.19%), providing five researchers, or (3.18%) of the total. Australia ranked last, with one university contributing only two researchers, or (1.27%) of the total. The B United States secured second place in the number of those whom earned their degrees for its universties. The journal has been contributed to by (19.48%) of the total universities, providing (49) researchers, which is (31.21%) of the overall number of researchers.

Germany comes first among European countries with (13) universities, accounting for (16.88%) of the total number of universities, and contributed (20) researchers, which is (12.73%) of the journal's researchers and (28.16%) of the total European researchers in the journal. Among these, (12) are German researchers, making up (60%) of the total researchers graduated from German universities, while the nationality of the remaining seven researchers varied. 40% of the researchers are graduates of German universities, with a total of (36) studies conducted. Of these, (22) studies were authored by German-born researchers, making up (61.11%) of the total output from German university graduates, while (14) studies were by foreign graduates, accounting for (38.89%). Asia ranked third with (35) researchers, representing (22.29%) of the total, followed by Africa, which had (13) researchers born there, constituting (8.28%) of the total researchers in the journal. Australia ranked last on the list, with only two researchers born there, making up (1.27%) of the total. The number of specialists in Mamluk history through their theses was (83) researchers, representing (52.86%). The remaining (74) researchers, accounting for (47.14%), had diverse specializations.
