Who are the north African desert dwellers?

The North Africa desert dwellers were called the Berbers. The Berbers were a group of independent desert and mountain dwellers who converted to Islam. Even today, some states in Northern Africa are still influenced by Islam today. 2 Berber groups that held distinction were the Almoravids and the Almohads. The Almoravids led by a Muslim scholar named Ibn Yasin tried to conquer and spread Islam through their region. After Ibn Yasin' death, the Almoravids took over Morocco and founded their capital Marrakech. They then conquered the African empire of Ghana and parts of southern Spain. They were known as Moors in Spain. The Almohads took over the Almoravids in the 1100's and followed the teachings of Ibn Tumart. They hated the Almoravids for not following Islamic rule. Led by another Muslim man named Abd al-Mumin overthrew the Almoravids and went to control Morocco and expanded their area to Tunis and Tripoli in the Mediterranean to Marrakech which they kept control of. Under the Almohads, the Maghrib region in North Africa was united for the first time for 100 years. In the end, The empire was broken up and separated into individual independent states under different Muslim rules.
