Meaning and definition of hafsids (1229-1574 a.d.)  :

 

This was the dynasty ruling Tunisia, eastern Algeria and Tripoli from their main capital Tunis. They were originally the Berber tribes of Banu Hafs Umar, named after one of the primary supporters of Ibn Tumart, the Almohad founder. Abu Hafs Umar's son, Abu Zakariya Yaha (r. 1229-1249 A.D.) became the Almohad governor of Tunisia, and established independence in 1229 A.D. creating the largest dynasty succeeding the Almohads. Zakariya's son, Muhammad I al-Muntasir (r.1249-1277 A.D.) repelled the Seventh Crusade in 1270 A.D., taking on the title of caliph. Following his death bloody feuds errupted, but prosperity was recovered under Abu-l Abbas Ahmad (1370-1394 A.D.) and continued until 1494 A.D. when many sub-regions gained independence. The Hafsids were dominated by Ottomans in 1505 A.D. and forced to accept the Spanish Emperor Charles V's occupation in 1535 A.D. They struggled between Ottoman authority and Spanish attacks until they were eventually deposed by the Ottomans in 1574 A.D.
