Answer:

The goals of ISIS were to establish a caliphate.

Step-by-step explanation:

ISIS was a terrorist organization that emerged after the US invasion of Iraq. This organization quickly became very powerful as it had a lot of new constantly flocking in, mostly former members of al-Qaeda, but also because it was controlling some of the natural resources so it was able to get a lot of money.

The basic goal of ISIS was to establish a caliphate. The caliphate was supposed to unite all Muslimterritories in one border, but it also had its ambitions set on expanding and conquering territories in Europe, Africa, and Asia. The manner in which ISIS tried to achive this was barbaric, to say the least. They were committing genocides over non-Muslim groups, sexually assaulted women, kept prisoners, had sex slaves, traded with humans, brutally murdering people, causing mass migration, etc.
