Auteurs : Bunes Ibarra Miguel ángel .

Résumé

The beginning of the reign of Felipe III has the essential characteristics of starting a very active policy in the Mediterranean. The main concern was to destroy the city of Algiers, which is why a conquest campaign was organized in 1601. The failure of the Genoa army in the Ottoman city meant that a new way of trying to limit the actions of the corsairs by sea and the janissaries by land had to be implemented. To carry out this policy the monarchy tried to find an ally in the territory to distract the Algerians and prevent their maritime and land actions. For this they sought an ally in the territory, initiating an active military and diplomatic policy with Kabylia and its rulers.
