Domingo Francisco Jorge Badía y Leblich (Catalan pronunciation: [duˈmɛnək bəˈðiə j ləbˈlik]; 1767–1818), better known by his pseudonym Ali Bey el Abbassi (Arabic: علي باي العباسي, Alī Bay al-Abasī), was a Spanish explorer, soldier, and spy in the early 19th century. He supported the French occupation of Spain and worked for the Bonapartist administration, but he is principally known for his travels in North Africa and the Middle East. He witnessed the Saudi conquest of Mecca in 1807. Source: Wikipedia (en)
