I believe you're thinking of Prestor John. During the medieval period, Western Europe was almost completely surrounded by Muslim territory, and a legend existed that Prestor John ruled a distant Christian kingdom. The legend could have evolved from sparse accounts of Ethiopia, a uniquely Christian kingdom surrounded by Muslim territory. But in all likelyhood, the legend formed from the hopes of maintaining Christianity in the presence of Islam.
