概要

In this episode of The Story of Morocco, Lucas and Luna explore the dramatic 14th-century siege of Ceuta by the Marinid sultan Abu al-Hasan 'Ali. At its height, the Marinid Empire stretched from Tunisia to the Atlantic, and Ceuta—a wealthy port on the Strait of Gibraltar—was its ultimate prize. Lucas recounts Abu al-Hasan's massive naval and land campaign, the city's fierce resistance under the Hafsid-aligned governor, and the broader implications for trade between the Mediterranean and sub-Saharan Africa. The siege reveals the complex web of alliances between Marinids, Hafsids, Nasrids, and the rising power of Castile. Lucas also discusses the role of the 'ulama' in justifying the war and the economic strain that led to the Marinid decline. The episode concludes with the legacy of Ceuta as a contested enclave that remains a flashpoint today. For adult history lovers short on time, this is a concise yet richly detailed look at a pivotal but often overlooked chapter in Moroccan history. #Marinid #Ceuta #AbuAlHasan #SiegeOfCeuta #Hafsid #Nasrid #StraitOfGibraltar #14thCentury #Mediterranean #Berber #Morocco #IslamicHistory #NavalWarfare #Castile #NorthAfrica #History #FexingoHistory #Podcast Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
