October 1609 CE
The initial groups of Moriscos are transported to North Africa, where in some cases they are attacked as invaders by the people of the recipient countries.
In other cases, small revolts have broken out on the ships, causing some of the exiles to be slain in battle with the crew.
This causes fears in the Morisco population remaining in Valencia, and on October 20 there is a rebellion against the expulsion.
The rebels number six thousand and hold the remote valley of Ayora and Muela de Cortes.
