The Kingdom of Mauritania comprised primarily the ethnic Mauri (Moors) in northwest Africa. The kingdom ruled autonomously at least as early at 225 B.C. Mauritania became a client-state of Rome in the second century B.C. and was later annexed in A.D. 44 under Claudius and split into two Roman provinces.
