Ennahda is the leading Islamist party, in Tunisia, and is basically ruling the country.
They marched to counter Friday's mass rallies held by opposition supporters.
Those rallies numbered in the thousands, except for in Tunis, where fifty thousand marched at a funeral for an assassinated opposition leader.
Saturday's rallies made the support for the ruling faction seem quite little, in comparison.
Numbers not withstanding, the country is quite politically divided.
Prime Minister Hamdi Jebali is threatening to replace the government, if terms can not be agreed upon to see things united again.
