  CALIPHATE - LoveToKnow Article on CALIPHATE
The mother of Yazid, Maisun, belonged to the most powerful tribe in Syria, the Kalb, and it seems that this and the cognate tribes of Qodaa (Yemenites) had enjoyed certain prerogatives, which had aroused the jealousy of the Qais and the cognate tribes of Modar.
Yazid discovered soon that the system of taxation as regulated by Hajjaj could not be altered without serious danger to the finances of the empire, and that he could not afford the expenses which his prodigal manner of life involved.
Yazid stormed the castle and took Adi prisoner, the public treasury fell into his hands, and he employed the money to pay his troops largely and to raise fresh ones.

Yazid was duly proclaimed caliph upon his father's death.
Though Sunnis generally agree that Yazid was not a righteous Caliph, they differ on the nature of Husayn's opposition to Yazid's rule and Yazid's culpability in Husayn's death.
Some Sunni authorities have claimed that Husayn opposed Yazid's ascension to the Caliphate but did not actively revolt against him, and that Husayn's killing was ordered not by Yazid but by the Umayyad governor of Iraq Ubaidallah ibn Ziyad.
