Probably, considering north africa to the middle east was an open and very busy road. Probably got there by someone who had come by rice at a Hajj

Alhambra is pretty cool

Because north africa is a mixed place where you'll find every range of skin color

The ones depecting dark skinned people are usually about slave or song folk, or military mercaineries.

No. 90% of the maghrebis have the same skin color, tanned/whitish.

As someone who visits Morroco every year I can assure you that's not really true, the only black people I encountered were immigrants

a very interesting history of religious fanaticism and political division. In the end most of the Berber dynasties that came to rule Western North Africa and Southern Spain were always doomed because they had to choose to concentrate on one or the other.
>>5267
Slave trade and dynasties like the Almoravids conquering deep into West Africa.

I'm form Algeria and you'll find every form of skin color in the Maghreb region.

Note that I haven't commented on the disparity or the percentage.

Moroccans are darker skinned compared to the majority of Algerians and Tunisians.

Reminder that there is a big ass desert where dark skinned people come from

Tribal division and wars were also the main problem between the dynasties.

>Tribal division and wars were also the main problem between the dynasties

this issue was always exacerbated because the rulers had to choose between their Spanish territories and their Maghreb homeland. You concentrate on fighting the Christians in Spain and another tribe back in North Africa becomes unruly and tries to replace you. You concentrate on North Africa and the Christian kingdoms in the North attack. It didn't help that the foundation of Al-Andalus was built on Arab and later Moorish supremacy that left the natives disenfranchised.
