Mora

Mora was a Muslim region in the Afar plain east of the Awash, known to medieval writers alongside the neighbouring powers of Ifat and Adal. In the thirteenth century its ruler was defeated by Dilgamis of the Muslim sultanate of Shewa. During Emperor Amda Seyon's fourteenth-century campaigns, Mora joined a coalition with Adal against the Ethiopian ruler, with Imam Salih chosen to lead their forces.

The later city of Semera lies here.
