Synopsis

An account of the birth of Islam and its conquest in a century of a territory stretching from Persia to Spain. What was the place of millions of non-Muslims in this empire? Polytheists had no choice but to convert. As for the peoples of the ‘Book’, Jews and Christians, they could continue to practise their religion, but became dhimmis, protected but submissive. This series recounts 1400 years of a unique relationship between Jews and Muslims, from the birth of Islam to the second Intifada, via the Ottoman Empire, Andalusia, the Maghreb and, of course, Jerusalem. The story is told by international experts (historians, writers, political scientists, etc.) and illustrated by archive footage and animated sequences.
