Aglabids

The Aglabids were a Muslim dynasty that ruled parts of North Africa, especially present-day Algeria, from the 10th to the 11th centuries. They originated from the Maghreb region and established a regional empire that contributed to the spread of Islamic culture and learning. Their rule is notable for promoting trade, scholarship, and architecture, fostering a period of relative stability and cultural flourishing in the Maghreb. The Aglabids played a key role in shaping the history of North Africa during the medieval period.
