Background |
| |
Ahmad ibn Muhammad was born to Muhammad I Abul-Abbas (841-856) of the powerful Aghlabid dynasty, the fifth Emir of the Islamic province of Ifriqiya (Africa) then incorporating over half of Italy including Rome. |
| |
The Aghlabid dynasty of emirs, members of the Arab tribe of Bani Tamim, ruled Ifriqiya, nominally on behalf of the Abbasid Caliph, for about a century from 800, until overthrown by the new power of the Fatimids. |
| |
Unfortunately, while much of the history concerning Ahmad ibn Muhammad has been deliberately destroyed, it appears during is reign he strengthened the autonomy and authority of local pagan warlords under his patronage, including formally recogonizing their false claims to titles. |
| |
While this appeasement of local warlords and families of bandits has the unfortunate side effect of helping them re-arm and re-equipe their militia, so that by the end of his reign (863), the various Italian militia armies were a formidable force in their own right. |
| |
Emir Ahmad ibn Muhammad died around 863. He was succeeded by Muhammad II ibn Ahmad (863-875) |
| |
In 871 Catholic Emperor Loius II invaded Italy, capturing Bari and Rome. Upon his early successes, the nominally christian Lombard princes once again switched sides to proclaim their loyalty to the Catholic Church. |
