Berber Revolt

The Berber Revolt refers to a series of uprisings by Berber people in North Africa against various rulers, particularly during the 7th to 13th centuries. It was primarily aimed at resisting Arab and Islamic domination, as well as protecting Berber identity and land. The revolts occurred in response to cultural and political pressures, including taxation and forced conversion to Islam. While largely unsuccessful in achieving lasting autonomy, these revolts highlight the enduring struggle of the Berber populations to maintain their heritage and autonomy amid external influences. Their legacy continues to impact North African politics and identity today.
