I'm Portuguese, I don't know how are history classes in Spain, but here we are taught about pretty much everyone who was here at some point: the Phoenicians, Carthiginians and Greeks briefly, with not much detail, then we are taught about the Lusitanians and Celts with some detail, then we are taught about the Romans with a lot of detail, then we are taught about the germanic tribes (Vandals, Alans, Suebi, Visigoths, etc) with some detail. Which is understandable, because the Romans were here for a long time and they recorded everything, while the others didn't. After that, we are taught about the "Mouros" (Moors), but let me tell you, whenever they teach you this period, they rush it very fast and it's even with less detail than some of the minor people I mentioned before, not only that but the book we use in class usually has like 5 pages on this, which is the equivalent of "well, they were here, then the Reconquista happened, the end"...for me, it's sad, the Moors were in Portugal for 530 years (780 in Spain)...so how can you teach 500 years of history in a few minutes and teach some of the other minor tribes throughout several classes? And I'm pretty sure it's not due to lack of records, the Moors were advanced and introduced a lot of technical things to the Peninsula, I'm sure they had records just like the Romans. I for one wish we valued more this part of our history, unfortunately, for some reason, I don't know if it's because of religious differences or if its for us to "identify" more with our Reconquista, I'm not sure...I just know that we should be taught about our christian forefathers, for sure, I'm all for that, but I think we shouldn't miss 500 years of history because of something that happened more than a milenium ago.
You completely right and its because of european racism. The moors are from africa they are muslim and most of them are black so you understand why they want to learn their children more about Reconquista, and teach them to be proud to be white Christian and European. the story is not necessarily the one that told us. And obviously if you are portugese you probably have a % of north african ancestor
@@dakidd7770 stfu we are not black in North Africa, a lot of berbers have the same DNA than south european people. The only difference is the religion and culture.
Al Qarawiyyin university was built in morocco- Fes... But you showed it to be in Tunis.... The one in Tunis is called Kairaouan.. even today they still get confused for each other
I think these two Berber videos are among this channel’s best works. Whichever part of the team did these videos should be promoted ASAP. Fantastic work.

The histories of the Berbers has fascinated me since childhood, and 60 years later, still does. And this two part presentation from K&G is flawless in its accuracy, yet equally important is that it’s presented in a captivating and fascinating fashion. Without a doubt, K&G has the most insightful, incisive documentaries on TH-cam.
Despite them being one of the oldest known ppl and cultures that is still alive to this day, they are often overlooked for some reason, probably because they are overshadowed by the pheonicians and Romans, but they are known in history since the times of Ancient Egyptians and Babylonyans, yet the Ancient Egyptians that wrote about them and hired them in their armies no longer exit, but the berbers still do.

I am an Amazigh from Morocco (Aith Wayaren tribe which is one of the biggest tribe in the Rif region) and this is very interesting. Most people in Morocco are genetically Amazigh, but some (especially from the south of Morocco) consider themselves Arabs , which they are not. It would be nice to see another episode of Abdelkrim Alkhattabi who was an Amazigh from Morocco, and with just a small army defeated Spain and France in Morocco. In the end Abdelkrim had to surrender because France and Spain (with the help of other European countries) bombed villages and civilians with poison gas. You should check the Battle of Anwal where the Spanish army was decimated. Can you make an episode about this?
I hope you don’t mean other regions by ‘south morocco’ but good, I’m from the tribe of irguiten in the high atlas and we are descendants of the ganfisa tribe, one of the founding tribes of the Almohad caliphate

The first commander of the Almohad army was Abdullah bin Mohsen al-Wansharisi, from the Central Maghreb, currently Algeria. Likewise, if we wanted to classify it as a state on an ethnic basis, it would definitely be Algerian, because its founder, his sons, its army, and its leaders were from the Central Maghreb, currently Algeria.
I am not sure but maybe quite some people would be interested in learning more about a impressive chapter of Berber history, the revolt of the Rif during the early 20th century, shortly after WW I. The berbers crushed Spanish colonial armies, worried the French a lot. To crush them chemical weapons were used in a horrible way.
@@aassem6275 Honour to your elders, neighbour. My great grandfather also fought as a conscript in that war, dying in Annual as many others. It was a great impression to visit the location of the battle.

Look at what the Prophet says about them: مُحلِّقين الرُؤوس واللحى إلى عمرو بن العاص وقالوا له أنهم رغبوا في الإسلام لأنَّ جُدودهم أوصوهم بذلك، فوجههم عمرو إلى عُمر في المدينة المُنوَّرة، ولمَّا أتوه تحدثوا معه عن طريق تُرجمان كونهم لا يعرفون العربيَّة، فسألهم: «مَن أَنْتُم؟»، قالوا: «نَحنُ بَنو مَازِيَغ»، فقال عُمر لِجُلسائه: «هَل سَمِعْتُمْ قَطّ بِهِؤُلَاء؟» فقال شيخٌ من قُريش: «يَا أَمِير الْمُؤمنِينَ هَؤُلَاءِ البَربَرِ مِن ذُرِّيَّة بِر بنُ قَيسٍ بنُ عِيلَان خرج مُغَاضِبًا لِأَبِيهِ وَإِخْوَتهِ فَقَالُوا "بِر بِر" أَي أَخذ الْبَريَّة»، فسألهم عُمر: «مَا عَلَامَتِكُم فِي بِلَادكُمْ؟» قالوا: «نُكْرِمُ الْخَيلَ وَنُهِينُ النِّسَاء»، فقال لهم عُمر: «أَلَكُم مَدَائِن؟» قالوا: لا، قال: «أَلَكُم أَعْلَامٌ تَهْتَدُونَ بِهَا؟» قالوا: لا. فقال عُمر: «وَالله لَقَد كُنْتُ مَعَ رَسُول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي بعض مَغَازيهِ فَنَظَرتُ إِلَى قِلَّةِ الْجَيْشِ وَبَكَيتُ فَقَالَ لي رَسُولُ الله صلى الله عليه وسلم: "يَا عُمَر لَا تَحْزن فَإِنَّ الله سَيُعزُّ هَذَا الدّينَ بِقَومٍ مِنَ الْمَغرِبِ لَيْسَ لَهُم مَدَائِنُ وَلَا حُصُونٌ وَلَا أَسْوَاقُ وَلَا عَلَامَاتٌ يَهْتَدُونَ بِهَا فِي الطُّرُق"؛ فَالْحَمْد لله الَّذِي منَّ عَليَّ بِرُؤيَتِهِم».

While Ibn Rustum was indeed a persian , his authority was limited, he was more of a spiritual leader : an imam. The rule of the rustumids was decentralized and the tribes remained autonmous, matter of fact he was chosen as leader by the berbers because he was a foreigner, meaning he had no local aaliagances to ensure no tribe or clan would rise over the others.
sure, he was someone that kept them togather in a state under ibadi doctrine , bit in reality it was a Zenatian state and anti fatimid rebellions were done by these zenatians,
the tribes had always been autonomous, the califs had only exerted their autority in the big cities and capitales. the others small cities and villages, always keep their tribale functioning and their culture and faith. even now, thousands of kabyles go to pilgrimage in Azrou n Thor.

@@BLRSharpLight At least in Morocco, arabic and french. As far as I understand, you still will have a hard time trying to pursue even the elementary school in any amazigh language.
The Saadis actually were Amazighs from Souss , they just claimed that they were descendants of prophet Mohammed to add legetimacy to their rule and guarantee the tribes loyalty.
As a moroccan i really enjoyed watching the video, thank you for your efforts 🙏 i know that it's not easy to collect all these informations and verify if they're correct or not thank you again
As Moroccan you must know that almost all i formatiin that they gaves are wrong, this is the history that create.

is history of amazigh rif slough sous... not the history of morocco.....especially those who see themselves as Arabs, this is certainly not their history
Imagine if Muhammad III Al Nasir had won the battle of las navas de tolosa, the Almohad dynasty would not have been outclassed by the merinids, probably the Almohads would have advanced conquering all the hispanic christian kingdoms, we wouldn't have the spanish unification, which would have delayed the discovery of America by Columbus, and half of the American continent today would not speak spanish, maybe they would all speak enlish or french, its incredibile how a single battle can radically change the course of history.
nah, i don't agree, almohad empire suffered a lof of problems, and threats of cessession in Tunis because of Hafsids, the tribe of ibn tumart that resented the Zenatian Almohad royalty, also Banu Ghania whe were still loyal to the Almoravids, succession problems too and murder of the rival candidates to the throne, and worst of all, rejection of the ibn tumart views of Islam and going back to the Almoravid maliki doctrine, this all contributed to the fall, proof is, after the loss of las navas de tolosa saw the state losing its entire spanish holdings and break away of modern day Algeria and tunisia, marinids entered morocco and removed the once mighty almohads almost too easily.
As one of the few sunni Persians remaining after Safavid take over of Iran I know the effect of one small thing can be so critical for lives of thousands of ppl in future As iran was changed forever As a muslim i think Whole American continent Spanish Portuguese Philippines And many others all lost the chance of knowing islam properly becuz some Almohad king was a drunk brother killer So if they gonna go to hell, God will punish him becuz of thier fate becuz thier doom was because of his actions as prophet said كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَ كُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock Sorry Christians it is a inter-Muslim dialogue Im sure u also believe non Christians will be punished so no offence when i say u go to hell ;)
Not really, the almohad were already weak at the time,the battle of las nevas simply gave the iberian christians the encouragement they needed to proceed on with the war, while at the same time the berbers lost all faith in their ruling class. Al andalus was set to fall since the taifa kingdoms and ibn tashfin's subsequent attempt to replace the weak kings with a strong religious movement, and his reluctance to take toledo after the zalaqa victory.

Bro, we Moroccans are Moors, As for the word Amazigh, it refers to the inhabitants of North Africa as a whole, and they are not a nation. In addition to that, they have different origins. And this history is not shared with anyone, because you are destroying our identity and our history

It wasn't an expansion, they didn't invade Tunisia, the fatimids appointed them as the new governors of Ifriqiya, and ashir wasn't their capital as they didn't have a state before ruling ifriqiya, ashir was just a city they controlled
@@hamzahammami22 Yes it wasn't an expansion exactly because they gained big parts of Tunisia after the Fatimids left ,but still they've managed to conquer many other parts of it , the ones that rebelled and declared independence or the one that never been under the Fatimid rule , and one last thing , telling that Achir wasn't a capital but only a city they ruled is totally wrong , as its known historically that the Zirid kingdom started under the rule of Ziri himself who was a vassal of the Fatimids ,but in the same time ,he was the appointed ruler of Ifriqiya and the Maghreb , Which is exactly how the video above said and the history mentions , and during his rule and the rule of his son Balqin the capital was Achir , It wasn't until Al Mansour came ,and moved the capital to Kairouan city ,while giving Achir to his brother Ytofat

Which is right ,so you are the one who said that Achir never been the capital of the Zirids ,and i showed you how wrong you are , then you ignored the three sentences about the Zirids being a vassal even under the rule of Ziri himself and being appointed as the ruler of Ifriqya which was followed by me saying that it was shown in the video , and you connected it to the line i said Achir is the capital .

As a European Christian, this entire region generally has a sort of fog over it historically speaking. However I've been fascinated by the history of this region.

Btw Granada and the cities around are beautiful!)
As a European Christian, I miss this region of North Africa but also big parts of the middle East not being under Christian European influence but islamic instead.

unfortunately the last freedom fighter Mohammed Abdelkrim El Khattabi is not mentioned in this wonderful documentary, I know it took place later, but it is certainly not something to forget.
Morocco has accepted amazigh héritage, and amazigh is an official language with arabic, books are being translated in amazigh, its being taught in schools. The amazigh identity has not been lost but is well alive andbis being slowly brought back

Igorito 😂😂 that's pure ficition, they were frop sahara ( MOROCCAN SAHARA) and they ruled marrakesh like any other family that ruled Morocco trought history
Salute to the country which colonized you for more than 800 years, enslaved you and killed your people. Great job moroccans. And friendly reminder that just because these two dynasties were established in marrakesh, doesn't mean they were moroccan. Go pick up a history book.
Doya we colonised them for more than 700 years it's a big countries game ur country isn't in this, if they weren't Moroccan why their capital was marrakesh and fes and not algeria or somewhere else? Sorry i forgot algeria didn't exist before 1962
To me what I am most grateful to the Almohad, Almoravid, and Marinids for achieving is not the worthless land conquest but the cultural heritage they left us, in arts, cuisine, fashion, and architicture.
2 Great Moroccan dynasties Kindom of Marrakesh Empire of Morocco Marruecos 🇲🇦❤️ -almoravids: Sanhaja were sahraouis and soussis nomads between souss 🇲🇦 and senegal and the founder of the almoravids is ibn yassine born in tamanart souss 😌🇲🇦❤️ they had for capital taghmat and marrakech. -Almohads: Were all from tinmel high atlas and tinmel was their first capital then Marrakech 🇲🇦
Indeed, Souss valley was probably the core region of sanhaja, while they were spread throughout the sahara and also in some places up north like Azemmour. While Massmouda had their "core" region as the high atlas, while they were also living in other places like dokkala/abda plains ... However, Almohads in particular were exclusively from the high atlas's massmouda and have not tried to include "all" massmouda in their power structure
@@vitorjpereira2547 Moroccan heritage yes! There was no Algeria at the time (the Almohads and Almoravids lived and ruled from our Moroccan cities and had Moroccans and it is us who inherited their knowledge and only a few Algerian cities were governed by them before the Ottomans colonized them in their turn). Until today, Spain calls on Moroccans to renovate our heritage left in Andalusia, only Moroccans can do it, we also renovate the Moroccan heritage in Algeria.

Great documentary about the History of the Berebers. I am obsessed with the Hispano-Morrocan Muslim arquitecture. I am from Spain and I always distinguished the beréber culture from the Arabic culture. A lot of people think the Maghreb is Arabic but the truth is that it was Arabized. Also good to know that the Muslim empires did the same thing as the Christian ones, inquisition, expel the unfaithful or force them to convert. We all did the same but for some reason, we are taught to exhaustion about the Spanish Inquisition and the Catholic kings expelling the Jews and forcing the Muslims to covert. Love to everyone.

My amazigh tribe in the high Atlas mountains in morocco is a branch of the famous Masmuda tribe the main component of the almohad empire but I share the same Islamic creed as the almoravides may Allah be pleased with them.

Bro We Moroccans are Moors, and we are not Berbers in the literal sense of the word. The name Berbers is given to all the inhabitants of North Africa, and they are not a nation.
Thank you for making such great videos, I can't get enough. When I see such a history, I am extra proud that I come from Morocco. North Africa has such a beautiful and great history about which far too little is told. maybe a movie about colonization and regaining independence or the participation of north african troops in ww1 & ww2 (is also an untold and forgotten history). thank you very much.
The only native Berber empire I had heard of this era before was the Almoravids, and that was because Total War: Medieval 2 simply referred to them as "The Moors" which I felt far too simplistic. Glad to see more detailed history!
For the ottoman era barbary states had some rulers berbers like the bey of oran bouchlaghem who will conquer oran from spain in 1700's and repulse the attacks from mulay Ismaïl in 1698 and 1701 there was also a corsair known in algeria called Hamidou ben Ali and a woman from tetouan who married a wattasid sultan (wattasids are from marinids)

Salam and Hi Dear friends being myself both a Writer and Historian from Algeria, Surely I have to admit that HISTORY not only tells us about the present rather it influences our present and certainly shapes our future ......Still, your relevant documentary is by all accounts was acceptable in general although some discrepancies were noted during the interesting documentary: *If I am not mistaken the battle of ALARCOS or the very major battle of ZAGRAJAS was fought between the Almoravids and Alfonso , The Battle of Sagrajas (23 October 1086), also called Zalaca or Zallaqa (Arabic: معركة الزلاقة, romanized: Maʿrakat az-Zallāqa), was a battle between the Almoravid army led by their King Yusuf ibn Tashfin and an army led by the Castilian King Alfonso VI. The battleground was later called az-Zallaqah (in English "slippery ground") because of the poor footing caused by the tremendous amount of bloodshed that day, which gave rise to its name in Arabic. Thank you for the good job in terms of HISTORY knowledge ...looking forward to reading from you...MY WARM SALAMS - MOHAMMED B

I'm Portuguese, I don't know how are history classes in Spain, but here we are taught about pretty much everyone who was here at some point: the Phoenicians, Carthiginians and Greeks briefly, with not much detail, then we are taught about the Lusitanians and Celts with some detail, then we are taught about the Romans with a lot of detail, then we are taught about the germanic tribes (Vandals, Alans, Suebi, Visigoths, etc) with some detail. Which is understandable, because the Romans were here for a long time and they recorded everything, while the others didn't. After that, we are taught about the "Mouros" (Moors), but let me tell you, whenever they teach you this period, they rush it very fast and it's even with less detail than some of the minor people I mentioned before, not only that but the book we use in class usually has like 5 pages on this, which is the equivalent of "well, they were here, then the Reconquista happened, the end"...for me, it's sad, the Moors were in Portugal for 530 years (780 in Spain)...so how can you teach 500 years of history in a few minutes and teach some of the other minor tribes throughout several classes? And I'm pretty sure it's not due to lack of records, the Moors were advanced and introduced a lot of technical things to the Peninsula, I'm sure they had records just like the Romans. I for one wish we valued more this part of our history, unfortunately, for some reason, I don't know if it's because of religious differences or if its for us to "identify" more with our Reconquista, I'm not sure...I just know that we should be taught about our christian forefathers, for sure, I'm all for that, but I think we shouldn't miss 500 years of history because of something that happened more than a milenium ago.
Peace Brother.
@@islamisthetruewaytogod6812 Bro your username
You completely right and its because of european racism. The moors are from africa they are muslim and most of them are black so you understand why they want to learn their children more about Reconquista, and teach them to be proud to be white Christian and European.

🛑Zirids dynasty or Zirids state was founded by Ziri Ibn Menad al Sanhadji, from the well known "Sanhadja berber tributes" in Algeria (📝Source: The Historian Ibn Khaldoun).
🛑 Family tree:
"Mankuch" father of "Manad" father of "Ziri" father of "Bologhin" Emir of Ifriqiya (973-984), father of "Hammad" founder of the Hammadid dynasty.

The Milkan's sons was having as place to live the center region of actual Algeria (from Msila to Algiers , Medea and Miliana).
🛑The first capital of Zirids dynasty was "Achir" known now as "Medea" in Algeria 🇩🇿❤️
Ziri Menad builded and reinforced it to counter the ennemies attacks, and the Zirids palace in Medea where the Menad were living with his royal family is still now in "Medea city".
🛑 Actually Algiers phonetic name in Arabic is "Dzair" and Algerian people are called "Dziriyin" (Ziri = زيري) (Algerian or Djazayri =دزيري).
Bologhine ibn Menad Ziri have rebuilded "Icosium city" and named it "Aldjazair beni mezghena, Dzair, Algiers, دزاير بني مزغنة" in 970 (one of the famous cities in Algiers now have his own name "Bologhine, in Bab El Oued, Algiers),

The histories of the Berbers has fascinated me since childhood, and 60 years later, still does. And this two part presentation from K&G is flawless in its accuracy, yet equally important is that it’s presented in a captivating and fascinating fashion. Without a doubt, K&G has the most insightful, incisive documentaries on TH-cam.
Despite them being one of the oldest known ppl and cultures that is still alive to this day, they are often overlooked for some reason, probably because they are overshadowed by the pheonicians and Romans, but they are known in history since the times of Ancient Egyptians and Babylonyans, yet the Ancient Egyptians that wrote about them and hired them in their armies no longer exit, but the berbers still do.

I am an Amazigh from Morocco (Aith Wayaren tribe which is one of the biggest tribe in the Rif region) and this is very interesting. Most people in Morocco are genetically Amazigh, but some (especially from the south of Morocco) consider themselves Arabs , which they are not. It would be nice to see another episode of Abdelkrim Alkhattabi who was an Amazigh from Morocco, and with just a small army defeated Spain and France in Morocco. In the end Abdelkrim had to surrender because France and Spain (with the help of other European countries) bombed villages and civilians with poison gas. You should check the Battle of Anwal where the Spanish army was decimated. Can you make an episode about this?

The first commander of the Almohad army was Abdullah bin Mohsen al-Wansharisi, from the Central Maghreb, currently Algeria. Likewise, if we wanted to classify it as a state on an ethnic basis, it would definitely be Algerian, because its founder, his sons, its army, and its leaders were from the Central Maghreb, currently Algeria.

While Ibn Rustum was indeed a persian , his authority was limited, he was more of a spiritual leader : an imam. The rule of the rustumids was decentralized and the tribes remained autonmous, matter of fact he was chosen as leader by the berbers because he was a foreigner, meaning he had no local aaliagances to ensure no tribe or clan would rise over the others.
sure, he was someone that kept them togather in a state under ibadi doctrine , bit in reality it was a Zenatian state and anti fatimid rebellions were done by these zenatians,
Yeah, the narrator failed to clarify that. Same thing happened with the Idrissids and the "Awraba tribe" and Fatimids and the "Kutama tribe"
@Masquerade why do you laugh ?
Same thing could be said about the Idrissids. I think the first true islamic “state” to appear in the Maghreb were the Aghlabids.
the tribes had always been autonomous, the califs had only exerted their autority in the big cities and capitales. the others small cities and villages, always keep their tribale functioning and their culture and faith. even now, thousands of kabyles go to pilgrimage in Azrou n Thor.

almoravids: Sanhaja were sahraouis and soussis nomads between souss and sahara 🇲🇦 and the founder of the almoravids is ibn yassine born in tamanart souss 😌🇲🇦❤️ they had for capital taghmat and marrakech in Morocco.
-Almohads: Were all from tinmel high atlas and tinmel was their first capital then Marrakech 🇲🇦
is history of amazigh rif slough sous... not the history of morocco.....especially those who see themselves as Arabs, this is certainly not their history
Imagine if Muhammad III Al Nasir had won the battle of las navas de tolosa, the Almohad dynasty would not have been outclassed by the merinids, probably the Almohads would have advanced conquering all the hispanic christian kingdoms, we wouldn't have the spanish unification, which would have delayed the discovery of America by Columbus, and half of the American continent today would not speak spanish, maybe they would all speak enlish or french, its incredibile how a single battle can radically change the course of history.
Doubtful, also Colombus didn't discover America
nah, i don't agree, almohad empire suffered a lof of problems, and threats of cessession in Tunis because of Hafsids, the tribe of ibn tumart that resented the Zenatian Almohad royalty, also Banu Ghania whe were still loyal to the Almoravids, succession problems too and murder of the rival candidates to the throne, and worst of all, rejection of the ibn tumart views of Islam and going back to the Almoravid maliki doctrine, this all contributed to the fall, proof is, after the loss of las navas de tolosa saw the state losing its entire spanish holdings and break away of modern day Algeria and tunisia, marinids entered morocco and removed the once mighty almohads almost too easily.
As one of the few sunni Persians remaining after Safavid take over of Iran
I know the effect of one small thing can be so critical for lives of thousands of ppl in future
As iran was changed forever
As a muslim i think
Whole American continent
Spanish
Portuguese
Philippines
And many others
all lost the chance of knowing islam properly becuz some Almohad king was a drunk brother killer
So if they gonna go to hell, God will punish him becuz of thier fate becuz thier doom was because of his actions as prophet said
كُلُّكُمْ رَاعٍ وَ كُلُّكُمْ مَسْئُولٌ عَنْ رَعِيَّتِهِ
Each of you is a shepherd and each of you is responsible for his flock
Sorry Christians it is a inter-Muslim dialogue
Im sure u also believe non Christians will be punished so no offence when i say u go to hell ;)
Not really, the almohad were already weak at the time,the battle of las nevas simply gave the iberian christians the encouragement they needed to proceed on with the war, while at the same time the berbers lost all faith in their ruling class. Al andalus was set to fall since the taifa kingdoms and ibn tashfin's subsequent attempt to replace the weak kings with a strong religious movement, and his reluctance to take toledo after the zalaqa victory.

And this history is not shared with anyone, because you are destroying our identity and our history
@@Randoman517 the Amazigh had so many different names as massilians..massissilians...Lybians...moors ..meshwesh etc. I know our history and also the DNA studies proved most North Africans are Amazigh including Morocco all the way to Niger and part of Egypt plus the Guanches in the Canary Islands.
@@Invisible-dot1 The name Amazigh is only a name for the inhabitants of North Africa. The Moroccans are Maori, and this is their homeland, Morocco, and we have no relationship with the rest of the inhabitants of North Africa, even though they share the land with us.

Just a side note : Zirids capital was first achir in Algeria (ruins are still there) before moving to Tunisia after expansion
Thanks for the efforts
It wasn't an expansion, they didn't invade Tunisia, the fatimids appointed them as the new governors of Ifriqiya, and ashir wasn't their capital as they didn't have a state before ruling ifriqiya, ashir was just a city they controlled
@@hamzahammami22 Yes it wasn't an expansion exactly because they gained big parts of Tunisia after the Fatimids left ,but still they've managed to conquer many other parts of it , the ones that rebelled and declared independence or the one that never been under the Fatimid rule , and one last thing , telling that Achir wasn't a capital but only a city they ruled is totally wrong , as its known historically that the Zirid kingdom started under the rule of Ziri himself who was a vassal of the Fatimids ,but in the same time ,he was the appointed ruler of Ifriqiya and the Maghreb , Which is exactly how the video above said and the history mentions , and during his rule and the rule of his son Balqin the capital was Achir , It wasn't until Al Mansour came ,and moved the capital to Kairouan city ,while giving Achir to his brother Ytofat
@@animeroom2399 the video didn't even mention achir, and the zirids didn't became a vassal of the fatimids until they were appointed by them as the rulers of Ifriqiya
@@hamzahammami22 What i meant by shown and mentioned in the video, is the point of the Zirids being a vassal of the Fatimids but still were a kingdom in the same time which is shown in the video not the capital Achir ,and from you own reply you've showed that you aren't knowledgeable about the region , because i said Ziri was a vassal of the Fatimids and he was the first of his dynasty to be appointed by them as the governor and the ruler of Ifriqiya and the Maghreb which continued until the broke ties(and you've said that the Zirids weren't vassals until they were appointed as the rulers of Ifriqiya which doesn't contradict with me) , and i said that Achir was the capital of the Zirids under the rule of Ziri, Balqin and a little bit under the rule of Al Mansour who moved the capital to Kairouan city . Which is right ,so you are the one who said that Achir never been the capital of the Zirids ,and i showed you how wrong you are , then you ignored the three sentences about the Zirids being a vassal even under the rule of Ziri himself and being appointed as the ruler of Ifriqya which was followed by me saying that it was shown in the video , and you connected it to the line i said Achir is the capital .

Great documentary about the History of the Berebers. I am obsessed with the Hispano-Morrocan Muslim arquitecture. I am from Spain and I always distinguished the beréber culture from the Arabic culture. A lot of people think the Maghreb is Arabic but the truth is that it was Arabized. Also good to know that the Muslim empires did the same thing as the Christian ones, inquisition, expel the unfaithful or force them to convert. We all did the same but for some reason, we are taught to exhaustion about the Spanish Inquisition and the Catholic kings expelling the Jews and forcing the Muslims to covert. Love to everyone.

Very impressive video, the animations, the maps and the amount of informations are just amazing, thank you.
Amazigh from Algeria.
16:30 the university of al carawyeen is located in fes-morocco not Tunisia but a tunisian woman who built it and its the oldest of all🇲🇦🇲🇦💪🏻
Salam and Hi Dear friends being myself both a Writer and Historian from Algeria, Surely I have to admit that HISTORY not only tells us about the present rather it influences our present and certainly shapes our future ......Still, your relevant documentary is by all accounts was acceptable in general although some discrepancies were noted during the interesting documentary:
*If I am not mistaken the battle of ALARCOS or the very major battle of ZAGRAJAS was fought between the Almoravids and Alfonso , The Battle of Sagrajas (23 October 1086), also called Zalaca or Zallaqa (Arabic: معركة الزلاقة, romanized: Maʿrakat az-Zallāqa), was a battle between the Almoravid army led by their King Yusuf ibn Tashfin and an army led by the Castilian King Alfonso VI. The battleground was later called az-Zallaqah (in English "slippery ground") because of the poor footing caused by the tremendous amount of bloodshed that day, which gave rise to its name in Arabic.
Thank you for the good job in terms of HISTORY knowledge ...looking forward to reading from you...MY WARM SALAMS - MOHAMMED B
thank you very much man
Do you believe that Algeria was born in 1962. Or you support the military regime historical lies? Like Almohad were Algeria even tho algeria is a french made post colonial state

Excellent documentaries!!! I missed though some hint of the amazigh presence in the Canary Islands from the time of the wars against the romans. Thank you!!!
As a Moroccan, I would like to say thank you for talking about my country's history, and the history of the Amazigh people in general, great work.
@@jubarex2409 no, those are not "algerians" but simply amazigh nations/kingdom, algeria As founded as a othoman puppet state in the 1600's, every citizen of that puppet state was an algerian, and thats when algerian story started.
@@jubarex2409 and Morocco was founded in the 700's, so yeah
@@jubarex2409 the MOROCCAN STATE was created with the idrissids thats why we dont claim anything before that as Moroccan but simply amazigh, and eastern morocco was never under othoman rule, fter they lost in was alaban
@@jubarex2409 zirids are irrelevent in that period lol, and they are not algerian. Fam i can understand that algerians get insecure about history but faking it is just dumb, u tell that to any historian he'll make a foul out of you.
@@jubarex2409 The state was called fez or mghreb, but the DYNASTIES, are called almoravids and almohads.
Mashallah! Thank you for this video on the history of my people.
The Zirids didn't only manage to unify the Maghreb and conquer Sicily and Grenada , but they left significant architecture,music and food , As they've built the city of Grenada near the old village, and established the Albayazin district alongside with the Alhambra castle (Which was the one Alhambra palace took its name from after being built inside it ) and being the one who've created the Grenadian music named Dziri andalusian music (used by north Africans to this day ), Not only that but they were the one building the Kasbha of Algiers and several other cities like Medeia and Achir . Its believed that the Zirid architecture was the core and the base of the later Andalusian architecture
That is some intense history. Loved this one.
