In the 13th century, Yaghmurasen ibn Ziyan founded the Ziyanid dynasty and made Tlemcen his capital, a caravan crossroads between the central Maghreb and the Sahara. Caught between the Merinids and the Hafsids, he preserved the independence of his emirate for over forty years, turning Tlemcen into a major commercial and intellectual centre.
