Years: 1014 - 1014

Hammad ibn Buluggin, a Berber who had been placed as governor of central Maghreb, in 1014 declares himself independent from the Zirids, who rule most of the Maghreb from Morocco to Tunisia, and obtains the recognition from the Abbasid Caliph of Baghdad.

Hammad founds a new capital in Qalaat Beni Hammad.

The Zirids send an army.

Two years later, a peace will be signed, although the new Zirid ruler will not recognize the Hammadid legitimacy until 1018.
