Conspiracy of the Slaves
The Conspiracy of the Slaves (( マルタ語:Konfoffa tal-ilsiera)), also known as the Revolt of the Slaves, was a failed slave rebellion by Muslim slaves to assassinate Grand Master Manuel Pinto da Fonseca and take over Malta, which was then ruled by the Order of St. John. The revolt was to have taken place on 29 June 1749, but plans were leaked to the Order before it began, and the plotters were arrested and most were later executed.
==Background==
In the mid-18th century, there were around 9000 Muslim slaves in Hospitaller-ruled Malta. They were given a substantial amount of freedom, being allowed to gather for prayers. Although there were laws preventing them from interacting with the Maltese people, these were not regularly enforced. Some slaves also worked as merchants, and at times were allowed to sell their wares in the streets and squares of Valletta.
In February 1748, Hungarian, Georgian and Maltese slaves on board the Ottoman ship ''Lupa'' revolted, taking over 150 Ottomans prisoner, including Mustafa, the Pasha of Rhodes. They sailed the captured ship to Malta, and the prisoners were enslaved. However, Mustafa was placed under house arrest on the insistence of France due to the Franco-Ottoman alliance, and was eventually freed. He converted to Christianity and married a Maltese woman, so he was allowed to remain in Malta.
