The Meknes Mallāḥ

Target Character, a financier of some renown, proposes that our Ruler Title formalize a proper Jewish quarter within Meknes itself, complete with its own charter, market rights, and courts. Making Meknes a place Jewish merchants want to settle in, he/she argues, will pay for itself many times over in taxes and trade alone.

historical_info = d009_sephardi_morocco.6.historical_info Sultan Moulay Ismail made Meknes his imperial capital and, like other Alaouite rulers, relied on Jewish financiers to manage the treasury and Atlantic trade, the most famous being Joseph Maimaran, remembered in Moroccan Jewish tradition as a key figure in Meknes's court finances. A formal Jewish quarter, or mallāḥ, was established in the city as part of its development into an imperial capital.
