Much of European political history was dominated, successively and together, by dynasties such as the Carolingians, the Capetians, the Bourbons, the Habsburgs, the Stuarts, the Hohenzollerns and the Romanovs.
Until the nineteenth century, it was taken for granted that a legitimate function of a monarch was to aggrandize his dynasty, that is, to increase the territory, wealth and power of family members.
A ruler in a dynasty is sometimes referred to as a dynast, but this term is also used to describe any member of a reigning family who retains succession rights to a throne.

 Saadi dynasty - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Saadi came from Tagmadert in the valley of the Draa River.
The name Saadi or Saadian was given to the Bani Zaydan (shurafa of Tagmadert) by later generations and rivals for power, who tried to deny their Hassanid descent by claiming that they came from the family of Halimah Saadiyya, the prophet Mohammed's wet nurse.
The most famous sultan of the Saadi was Ahmad I al-Mansur (1578–1603), builder of the El Badi Palace in Marrakech and contemporary of Elizabeth I.
