Conversion was rapid, but initial unity soon divided North Africa into competing Muslim states. The indigenous Berbers were an integral part of the process. In the eleventh century, reforming Muslim Berbers, the Almoravids of the western Sahara, controlled lands extending from the southern savanna and into Spain. In the twelfth century another group, the Almohadis, succeeded them. Islam, with its principle of the equality of believers, won African followers.
