Produced in the Maghreb or Western periphery of the Muslim world (Muslim Spain or North Africa) sometime between the 10th and 14th centuries, the Hundred and One Nights differs in several respects from its sister-narrative, the Thousand and One Nights (which was composed in the Eastern region of the Islamic world, e.g. Egypt, Iran, and/or Syria). The One Hundred and One Nights contains not only fewer but also different stories than its longer analogue, and the relationship between the frame story and the embedded tales is less persistently emphasised.
The version of the Seven Viziers contained within the One Hundred and One Nights shares about half of the embedded stories with the version found in the Thousand and One Nights.
