The Sa'dī Court Jews

Target Character, a Jewish physician and scholar of considerable learning, has come to Marrakesh seeking a place at Court Title. Our Ruler Title's predecessors have long relied on Jewish financiers and go-betweens for dealings with the Christian powers of the Atlantic, and there is no obvious reason to break with that practice now, though not every minister at Court Title agrees.

historical_info = d009_sephardi_morocco.4.historical_info The Sa'dī sultans, most famously Aḥmad al-Manṣūr, leaned heavily on Jewish courtiers, financiers, and diplomatic go-betweens to manage trade and negotiations with England, Holland, and other Atlantic powers, relationships built partly on the sugar and saltpeter trades that funded the Sa'dī state.
