• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Zanj were constrained African slaves to work with the clearing of the grounds in the south of Iraq. When they were raised, they were joined by the slaves of the cities and the close villages. They worked in vast groups, without receiving regular wages, and their daily feed ration was made up only of flour, dates and hulled grain. Their chief, named Ali ibn Driven?ammad, was a man who became aware of their misery and promised to them grounds and richnesses. While being presented like a prophet, or mahdi, it managed to rejoin them and to involve them in an insurrection into 869. It succeeds in seizing Ba?ruffle and of its surroundings, thus that of Ahwaz and Wasi? by using a strategy of violence against its adversaries. It also profited from the support of certain Arab tribes of the area. Al-Muwaffaq, brother and heir to the caliph, Al-Mutamid, managed to mobilize the army and undertook a series of military actions which ensured the victory over the Zanj rebels to him into 883.

Autorenporträt

I am very interested by the History and the middle age.This is my first novel but I found this so fabulous story , and if misunderstood, I wanted to write the novel.
It is inspired by a true story and it is because the characters are so human that I wanted to honor them.
