The Battle of Alarcos 1195 - (Spain vs Almohads)
Thanks for watching. Please rate/comment This video is not realistic it's just an example ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Battle of Alarcos was a battle between an alliance of Almohads led by Abu Yusuf Ya'qub al-Mansur versus King Alfonso VIII of Castile. The outcome of the battle was a decisive Almohad victory and it shook the stability of the Kingdom of Castile for several years. All nearby castles surrendered or were abandoned and the way to Toledo was wide open. Fortunately for the Christians, however, Abu Yusuf Ya'qub al-Mansur moved back to Sevilla to make good his own considerable losses; there he took the title of al-Mansur Billah ('Made victorious by God').

Maimonides, Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon - #33
JewishHistory.org If Rashi is one of the pillars of the Jewish world, the other is Maimonides, Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon, the great sage and person of the Jewish Middle Ages. Born in 1135 in Cordova, Spain, he suffered exiled when the fanatical Islamic sect, the Almohads, took over and forced all the Jews to either convert to Islam or leave the country. Maimonides flees to Fez, North Africa but there he is also tracked by the Almohads. He comes to the land of Israel, but he is warned that the Crusaders are out to kidnap him. Finally he settles in the city of Fostad (old Cairo), in Egypt. Maimonides is an astronomer, a mathematician, a philosopher, a doctor, he's someone who knows pharmacology and he's the greatest Torah scholar of his age. And he sets down to formally codify all of Torah in volumes that will be accessible to all. He writes a commentary to the Mishnah in Arabic. He writes the Mishnah Torah which is 14 volumes and codifies everything that exists in Jewish law and tradition. It's written unbelievably beautifully in Hebrew with a clarity and organization that almost defies belief. He also wrote another book in Arabic called The Guide to the Perplexed, which is a philosophical treatment of Judaism, and he has a lot of Aristotle in it, in which he agrees with and doesn't agree with. It's a book that's written literally to guide people who were troubled and wanted to know how to regain their faith through philosophy. We must remember that at that time philosophy ...

Cathedral, Alcázar and Archivo de Indias in Seville (UNESCO/NHK)
Together these three buildings form a remarkable monumental complex in the heart of Seville. The cathedral and the Alcázar -- dating from the Reconquest of 1248 to the 16th century and imbued with Moorish influences -- are an exceptional testimony to the civilization of the Almohads as well as that of Christian Andalusia. The Giralda minaret is the masterpiece of Almohad architecture. It stands next to the cathedral with its ... Source: UNESCO TV / © NHK Nippon Hoso Kyokai URL: whc.unesco.org

Lourdes Maria Alvarez-Tolerance's End, The Rise of Fundamentalism in 12th and 13th Century Islam.mp4
Dr. Lourdes Alvarez, Director of Medieval and Byzantine studies at the Catholic University of America, spoke about the relationships between Muslims, Christians, and Jews in Spain during the 12th and 13th century. She began her lecture by providing examples of scholars and intellectuals during this time who deepened human knowledge, appreciated creation, and aimed to service the poor. She then went on to discuss the Almoravid and Almohad dynasties which both ruled in Spain during this time, and how this affected the scholars, intellectuals and the rest of society. Both the Almoravid and Almohad dynasties used Machiavellian tactics such as forced conversions, imprisonment, and even death for the Jews, Christians, and Muslims who did not share their exact beliefs in order to gain a stronger hold on their land. While these tactics increased the Muslim population and certainly strengthened the dynasties political position for a while, in the end both dynasties were overthrown. Dr. Alvarez pointed out Machiavellian tactics such as those used in these two Berber dynasties only create a false sense of security that will never lead to permanent stability. In the end she hopes that this history will remind us to return to tolerance in its deepest meaning and to live out the words of thinkers such as Rumi in today's world.

TARRAS0031@@@MIRAMAR31(KHALED L- HAJ BRAHIM/SOLTAN GNAWA)
Marrakesh was founded by the Almoravids 1070-1072. After a destructive struggle, it was falling to the Almohads in 1147. Following this, Jamaa el Fna was renovated along with much of the city. The city walls were also extended by Abou Yacoub Youssef and particularly by Yacoub el Mansour 1147-1158. The surrounding mosque, palace, hospital, parade ground and gardens around the edges of the marketplace were also overhauled, and the Kasbah was fortified. Subsequently, with the fortunes of the city, Jamaa el Fna saw periods of decline and also renewal.

M2TW: The Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa 1212
Requested by some of my friends, i decided this time the Great Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa 1212 will be done. When 50000 Spanish, Portugese & Crusaders led by Don Alfonso VIII of Castile, Don Sancho VII of Navarre & Don Pedro II of Aragon alongside Portugese & Crusaders, destroyed a muslim army of 200000 Almohads led by Caliph Muhammad al-Nasir during the Spanish Reconquista. There are some reasons why i decided to do this battle on Medieval2TW rather than on other mods like Stainless Steel. 1st & foremost is the generals, although in both M2TW & SS generals are in full plate-armor suits, i have a mini mod that changes all M2TW generals to earlier era generals, i mean in chainmail, tunic, nosehelms etc, & Since in 1212 there wasn't any plate-armoured knights i felt it will look odd. I like detail in evrything. In the Decisive moment of the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa, we know that Sancho VII of Navarre & his Knights broke through the muslims from the Christian's right flank & charged streight for the Caliph's tent which was surrounded by chained african slave-warrior bodyguards & smashed into them, using his flails to shatter the their skulls & the chains ( both flails of Don Sancho VII & slave chains are still preserved till today ). The Caliph ran so fast that he not only left his tent but evrything behind & the remains of his army thrown into confusion. between a 100-150000 of his men lay dead on the field. Now obviously, i can't create a camp on M2TW & i couldn't ...

Andalusia - The Alcazar of Seville - Spain
The Alcázar of Seville was constructed during the 12th century Almohad reign, but was rebuilt in 1364 for the Christian ruler Pedro I ("The Cruel"). All that remains of the Almohad palace is a section of wall and a cross-axially-planned garden, but the rebuilt palace's plan, gardens, and decorative programme place it squarely within the tradition of Islamic palaces on the Iberian Peninsula. The palace is arranged in blocks on three sides around a rectangular court, entered through the remains of an Almohad wall with arched openings. The block opposite the entrance has a façade ornamented with blind interlacing polylobed arcades. The entrance axis extends through two rectangular halls, across the main rectangular courtyard (the Patio de las Doncellas) and through the entrance to the rectangular hall at the opposite end of the courtyard. The Patio de las Doncellas is surrounded by luxurious rectangular reception halls ornamented with carved wood doors, ceilings, and polychrome glazed tile dados - all of which visually connect the Alcázar to the contemporary Nasrid palaces of the Alhambra. Paved with white marble, the Patio de las Doncellas has a large central fountain and is surrounded by an arcade ornamented with elaborately carved stucco. Arabic inscriptions referring to Pedro I as "sultan" are found throughout the courtyard and palace, carved in stucco and in wood. The Patio de las Muñecas (Court of the Dolls) is a smaller, though richly ornamented, interior courtyard ...

LORDS OF WAR
Algeria has been inhabited by Berbers (or Imazighen) since at least 10000 BC. After 1000 BC, the Carthaginians began establishing settlements along the coast. The Berbers seized the opportunity offered by the Punic Wars to become independent of Carthage, and Berber kingdoms began to emerge, most notably Numidia. In 200 BC, however, they were once again taken over, this time by the Roman Republic. When the Western Roman Empire collapsed, Berbers became independent again in many areas, while the Vandals took control over other parts, where they remained until expelled by the generals of the Byzantine Emperor, Justinian I. The Byzantine Empire then retained a precarious grip on the east of the country until the coming of the Arabs in the eighth century. Having converted the Kutama of Kabylie to its cause, the Shia Fatimids overthrew the Rustamids, and conquered Egypt. They left Algeria and Tunisia to their Zirid vassals; when the latter rebelled and adopted Sunnism, they sent in a populous Arab tribe, the Banu Hilal to weaken, initiating the Arabization of the countryside. The Almoravids and Almohads, Berber dynasties from the west founded by religious reformers, brought a period of relative peace and development; however, with the Almohads' collapse, Algeria became a battleground for their three successor states, the Algerian Zayyanids, Tunisian Hafsids, and Moroccan Marinids. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries, the Spanish Empire started attacking and subsuming many ...

ISLAM: From Baghdad to Córdoba
WORLD ARCHITECTURE - ISLAM: From Baghdad to Córdoba HENRI STIERLIN Book Number: 68714 Product format: Hardback Covering stunning architecture from the 7th to the mid 13th century, to the western eye, cities such as Jerusalem, Mecca, Baghdad or Cairo can seem utterly alien. Here we enjoy in detail the Dome of the Rock, the Great Mosque of the Umayyads, Umayyad palaces, the splendour of Córdoba and its Mezquits, the Sunni Sultans to the Fatimid Caliphs, Aghlabid Ifriqiya to the Maghreb of the Almohads and much more. It is not only the way of life that is unfamiliar, it is also the astoundingly varied architecture. This volume surveys more than six centuries of Islamic architecture, placing mosques, Koran schools and palaces in their cultural, religious and political contexts. Distinctive features are its view of building as reflection of Moslem thinking, and its focus on the Arab world. With more than 200 amazingly detailed colour photographs, numerous plans, chronological tables and an extensive glossary, this is a reference work which appeals to the expert and the travel-hungry reader alike. 9.4" x 11.8", 224 pages.

Rambam Trailer
JewishHistory.org PHYSICIAN - PHILOSOPHER - CODIFIER - COMMENTATOR - SPIRITUAL LEADER Rambam, Rabbi Moshe ben Maimon, was born in Cordova Spain, early in the 12th century. Facing the terror of the fanatic Muslim Almohads, he and his family fled Cordova. For seven years they lived in the mountains and caves of Spain. During that time, his remarkable Torah and Talmudic knowledge increased. His love of Torah combined with his avid study of healing and natural medicine, the sciences, mathematics, astronomy - as well as the works of the classical philosophers, began to shape the destiny of his life. The legacy he left behind is astounding. He wrote Perush Ha-Mishnayot - his commentary on the Mishnah, which included the Thirteen Principles of Faith, before he was 30. He also penned Mishna Torah - over 14 volumes of the laws of the Torah. Amongst his numerous works he wrote and defined Sefer Ha-Mitzvot and the 613 mitzvahs - and The Guide to the Perplaxed - as spiritual and philosophical treatise. Rambam was a holistic healer of body and soul. In an age of ignorance, he was a shining light of compassion and commitment toward his fellow human beings.

Morocco
Morocco: الهولندية رحلة على الطريق الى موريتانيا futch tv The earliest well-known Moroccan independent state was the Berber kingdom of Mauretania under king Bocchus I. This Berber Kingdom of Mauretania (current northern Morocco) dates at least to 110 BC. Umayyad Arabs conquered the region in the 7th century, bringing their language, their system of government, and Islam, to which many of the Berbers slowly converted, mostly after the Arab rule receded. In the Islamic era the first Moroccan Muslim state, independent from the Arab Empire, was The Kingdom of Nekor, an emirate in the Rif area. It was founded by an immigrant from Yemen, Salih I ibn Mansur in 710 AD, as a client state to Caliphal grant. Idris I fled to Morocco from the Abbasids' massacre against his tribe in Iraq and managed to convince the Awraba Berber tribes to break allegiance to the distant Abbasid caliphs in Baghdad. He founded the Idrisid Dynasty in 780 AD. Morocco became later a center of learning and a major power. From the 11th century onwards, a series of powerful Berber dynasties arose. Under the Almoravid dynasty and the Almohad dynasty, Morocco dominated the Maghreb, Muslim Spain, and the western Mediterranean region. In the 13th century the Merinids gained power over Morocco and strove to replicate the successes of the Almohads. In the 15th century the Reconquista ended Islamic rule in Iberia and many Muslims and Jews fled to Morocco. Under the Saadi Dynasty, the first Moroccan dynasty initiated ...
