Résumé:
The Ottomans' view of the Maghreb began when the Barbaros brothers allied
themselves with Sultan Bani Hafs in exchange for a fifth of the spoils, and after
their victories in the western Mediterranean basin , The inhabitants of Algeria,
led by the sheikh of the city, Salim Toumi, appealed to them with the aim of
confronting the Spanish external threat to the Algerian coasts and the occupation
of several cities ,At the beginning of the 16th century, the Ottoman Empire
became the most powerful force capable of fighting the Spanish threat in the
north of the Maghreb, especially in Algeria, The beginning of the Ottoman
presence in Jijel and Bejaia was to repel this Crusader aggression, the
conclusion of which was the inauguration of the Ottoman rule in Algeria in
1519.
