The present study aims at shedding light on the beginning of the Ottoman political system in Algeria, experiencing in the early 16th centurya sudden transitionin the governing regime.

Actually, it used to be a group of scattered emirates, the majority of which subjected to the Zayyanid.

After the fall of Granada in 1492, the last Islamic stronghold, the power was unbalanced between the two banks of the western Mediterranean basin.

Resulting from the chase of Muslims fleeing Andalusia, the Islamic-Crusader clash moved into Maghreb countries which were already suffering from internal division.

In Central Maghreb, Mers El Kebir, Oran, Bejaïa…etc.

fell under the control of the Spaniards.

Due to the inability of Algerians to defend their lands despite the resistance, the Barbarossa brothers moved to Algeria after the people sought their help in 1512.

They could ward off the Spaniards in cooperation with local people.

This study tackles as well the clash that raged during the period (1516-1519)between the Crusaders and Algerians supported by Barbarossa brothers who gained the legitimacy and support from the Ottoman Empire.

The matter is that the local powers' attitude was dual: sometimes they support the Ottomans, contrarily they ally with the Spaniards! This appeared in the late 1519 until the emergence of the Ottoman ruling regime in Algeria.
