I don't know much about Fez... But this is what I know:
Flag of Morocco


The Kingdom of Fez was basically a province governed by Princes of the Wattasid Dynasty, whom ruled what was known as Morocco.



Initially (1470s), Morocco is very unstable, as the Spanish and Portugese campaigned in Morocco. Economically wise, Morocco had good relations with the Iberian kingdoms. In order for expansion, Fez must expand to the South of Morocco, which is Ruled by the Saadi Dynasty. Missions to control lands of Southern Morocco would be great! I think the objective of the Kingdom of Fez should be to defeat the threat of Castille and Portugal.

Wattasid Viziers (to the Maranid Dynasty)

1420-1448 : Abu Zakariya Yahya
1448-1458 : Ali ibn Yusuf
1458-1459 : Yahya ibn Abi Zakariya Yahya

Wattasid Sultans (General rulers of the Kingdom of Fez)

1472-1504 : Abu Abd Allah al-Sheikh Muhammad ibn Yahya
1504-1526 : Abu Abd Allah al-Burtuqali Muhammad ibn Muhammad
1526-1526 : Abu al-Hasan Abu Hasan Ali ibn Muhammad
1526-1545 : Abu al-Abbas Ahmad ibn Muhammad
1545-1547 : Nasir ad-Din al-Qasri Muhammad ibn Ahmad
1547-1549 : Abu al-Abbas Ahmad ibn Muhammad
1554-1554 : Abu al-Hasan Abu Hasun Ali ibn Muhammad

Note: Viziers were men who were recruited by Maranids (Previous Dynasty) to advise the leaders. The Viziers ended up stealing power from the Maranid leaders and gaining control, when Abu Abd Allah al-Sheikh Muhammad ibn Yahya became the first Wattasid ruler.

The time period of the next version won't be the same as in 2.75; it will be from 1492 to 1555. Thus, we don't have much of a choice regarding which dynasty to recreate (if we want to keep historiacal accuracy, of course).
