"Moors" was a generic term employed by Christian Europeans during the Middle Ages to define those ethnically diverse people of Muslim religion who inhabited the western Mediterranean Sea area.
History
During King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella's conquest of Spain, the Templars attempted to prolong the conflict with the Moors by holding King Muhammad hostage in Alhambra. Ezio Auditore da Firenze rescued Muhammad, allowing him to surrender and end the struggle.[1]
During the Spanish occupation of Algiers, the amir Selim requested the Turkish Assassins' help in protecting the Moors living there.[2]
