Amazigh Language and Culture (Berbers and Moors)
The Amazigh are the indigenous people of North Africa, who have long been known by the exonyms Moor and Berber and have a number of distinct languages. They have historically been divided between those who remained in the mountains and opposed the various civilizations of North Africa (the Carthaginians, Romans, Arabs, etc.) and those who integrated into those societies, who became part and parcel of the Arab Islamic Empires in North Africa and Spain.

Moore's Law is not a law of physics, but is a mere trend. In 1965, Gordon Moore, Co-founder of Intel, noted that the number of components in integrated circuits had doubled every year from the invention of the integrated circuit in 1958 until 1965" and predicted that the trend would continue "for at least ten years". It is a trend that has been the driving force behind the silicon industry. This law is said to collapse by 2010.
