Small correction: the name of the dynasty does not come from the name of the 4th Caliph Ali, but from the founder of the dynasty otherwise known as "moulay ali al-sharif". in Morocco the "al-sharif" title means "the honorified" or "the honored" in arabic and it implies ones descendence of the Prophet Mohammed.

(although i dont think it holds any value in day to day life nowadays... we all bleed red after all..) So this is more than a reason for "some people" to keep track of their "family branches" all over the world... anyways AS FAR AS I KNOW: in order to obtain the title and you think its worth the hassle you have to provide CERTIFIED LINEAGE from MULTIPLE SOURCES...

It is interesting to read the text of the Treaty of Tituan between Sultan Moulay Ismail and the British in A. J. Arberry's Oriental Essays. This treaty facilitated free trade on fair and equitable terms. Sultan's letter quoted by the author portrays Ismael as a person who wanted his people and foreign traders to prophet from trade on win-win terms. His suppression of piracy mentioned by you is consistent with his desire to promote international trade.

That was a phenomenal feat done by the Saadian Sultan al-Mansur in 1591. He sent an advance party to build wells all along the way; it's truly a colossal expedition, some of which are still there. The lands to the south were lost to Morocco by 1630, though the eastern oases remained under Moroccan authority until 1901..

Travel into the Sahara was nothing new, trade routes had already been established for a very long. Even militarily, the Almoravids and Saadians managed to do it. I'm assuming they'd bring a lot of supplies with them. Plus, they'd need to have an understanding of the lay of the land (where there are sources of water, oases villages/towns etc). I think I read somewhere that the Saadian ruler, Ahmad al-Mansur actually built wells along his journey as well!
