Mauro-Roman Kingdom

c. 429 CE – 599 CE · about 170 years approximate dates

The Mauro-Roman Kingdom, or Kingdom of Masuna, was a Christian Berber kingdom that dominated much of the old Roman province of Mauretania Caesariensis from its capital Altava. Scholars disagree on whether it was a true kingdom or a looser tribal confederation. It arose as Roman control collapsed in the 5th century.
