The Empress of Morocco is a tragic play written by Elkanah Settle in 1673. The story revolves around the character of Muley Mahomet, the Emperor of Morocco, who falls in love with a European woman named Almahide. Despite the cultural differences and the opposition from his council, Muley Mahomet decides to marry Almahide and make her his empress. However, their happiness is short-lived as a rebellion breaks out in the kingdom, led by the jealous and power-hungry prince Abdelmelech. The play explores themes of love, power, betrayal, and the clash of cultures. It is known for its elaborate stage directions, poetic language, and vivid imagery.
