-The Almohad Dynasty was a Muslim dynasty that was founded in the twelfth century, and conquered all northern Africa as far as Libya, together with Al-Andalus (Almohad Dynasty.)
-The Almohads were Islamic revivalists who set themselves the task of getting rid of laxness and enforcing a strict teaching of Islam's rituals and laws. (Almohad Dynasty.)
-Their predecessors, the Almoravids had already reversed earlier policy about religion, at times, they entered alliances with Christians even towards end of their rule, the Almoravids employed Christians. The Almohads interpretation of the need for total blockage Muslims and non-Muslims was even stricter like the teachings of Ibn Taymiyyah.(Ibid)
-Lieutenant Abd al-Mu'min al-Kumi from Algeria proved to be a amazing soldier defeating the Almoravids in 1147. (Ibid)
-Between 1130 and his death in 1163 al-Mu'min extended his power over all northern Africa as far as Egypt then entered Al-Andalus which he controlled by 1154. In 1170, his successor, Yusuf I, moved the Almohad capital to Seville, where they built the great mosque (Ibid)
-However, the Christian states in Iberia were becoming too organized to be overrun by the Muslims, and the Almohads made no permanent advance against them. (Ibid)
-Ruling Andalusia from 1154, they went back to to Marrakesh after defeat at the Battle of Las Navas in 1212 by a coalition of Christian princes. Marrakesh, their last refuge , fell to the Marinids in 1269.(Ibid)
-The Almohads had risen to power very fast due to the fact that they took over most of the Almoravids empire bringing them great wealth and control over land where lots of people lived.
-The Almohads were Islamic revivalists who set themselves the task of eradicating laxness and enforcing a strict force of Islam's rituals and laws.
-This could result in being a bad thing because they are going to constantly attack different civilizations and when they come across a civilization that more powerful there empire will be take over.
