>muslims were only a majority in the south >most muslims and the ruling class were north africans, the idea that it was mostly native converts is a lie >the pilar of the economy and the armed forces was gaining recruits from the muslim world with promise of loot in raiding, especially christian slaves >there was a perpetual state of warfare and repression
the "enlightened" muslim iberia is historical revisionism to try and create some historical legitimacy to "peaceful multicultural societies" and now there is a mounting effort to smear the Reconquista by claiming it's a modern fabrication, that the christians were not pushing back the invaders but were evil racist against peaceful Islam
I'm not sure what your point is in making this thread OP. Everything you stated is widely known to those who know their history.
Angel Brown
Just wait for an autistic muslim to come into the thread
Oliver Sanders
because the last part is recent they are trying to demonize the reconquista pretty soon they'll call it a genocide and demand we let all the peaceful muslims back imagine the EU trying to cut of some part of Spain to create a muslim state
Luke Hall
But there are a lot of philosophers, scientists, poets etc of sephardic, andalusi and berber origin born in the caliphate, trying to deny this is just as retarded as saying that Cordoba was a peaceful and tolerant place.
Lincoln Rogers
Cordoba existed as a remarkably industrious city and noteworthy center of learning for an astonishingly brief period of time hilariously under the patronage of homosexual caliph Al-Hakam II. It's also very difficult to ascribe the productiveness of Spain during this era to It's Islamic rule. We don't call the academic advances beginning with and succeeding Newton in the UK the "Anglican Golden age"
There may have been > a lot of philosophers, scientists, poets etc of sephardic, andalusi and berber origin born in the caliphate that doesn't mean they were any good, can you name some of the fruits of their labours?
Carter Wilson
Just read about them m8: avorres, abbes ibn farnes, ibn khaldun....
Aiden Hughes
Well islamic andalusia had shitton of well known scientists and philosophers meanwhile the Christian iberians were irrelevant scientifically at that time. Check m8 christ cucks
Connor Torres
>ibn khaldun. Bit of a stretch. Avorroes' greatest achievement is somehow intriguing raphael enough to end up on his fresco. Regardless I asked for the fruits of their labours. What are their verifiable accomplishments, don't just give me names. >In b4 commentary on the Greeks.
Chase Gonzalez
Ibn khaldun being born in tunis was caused by the reconquista. You should so the research by yourself. I dont wanna just give you a link of super biased muslim site. If this thread doesn't get archived tomorrow, i will post some good shit about the subject after sleeping

Muslims brought culture to Spain. So many libraries were built, it became a center for cultural life for Christians and Jews. I love how Europeans wholeheartedly defend Colonization but when Muslims come into Spain and make the place way better than it was before somehow that's a bad thing. What the Christians did to the Muslims was in no way justified and I love how much Christians like to hide and play apologetics for Christian terrorism. I'm not out here defending Daesh, yet everywhere I look Christians are defending the Crusades, the Spanish Inquisition, etc.

Europeans never had buildings this cool before the Moors came.

What a bunch of memes retard. Muslim libraries were just translations. Their cultural output was almost null. No literature worth shit outside of Averroes.
Caleb Wright
Christians are hypocrites. They offer Sephardic Jews citizenship but not Muslims who they forcibly kicked out.
Jonathan Myers
>They offer Sephardic Jews citizenship but not Muslims who they forcibly kicked out Muslims deserved it.They revolted twice.Jews were part of society to some level. Besides muslims are dumb and poor while jews have bucks

Be coherent, at the very least.
Gabriel Murphy
>Spain being an absolutist fundamentalist theocracy When did this happened?
Easton Edwards
I dunno. There's a lot of brainwashed Amerilards that believe Cordoba was a multicultural wonderland of peace and education. They're the same kind of tards that think the Crusades were an unjustified holy war on the peaceful Muslims who, in keeping with tradition, dindu nuffin.

Not true really. Most Israelis are Middle Eastern and aren't rich, while most the Arabs in the Gulf states don't have to do shit because they live off oil money and """migrant workers"""
Gabriel Robinson
>is perfectly ok with Spain being an absolutist fundamentalist theocracy I'll get angry when this actually happens, Ahmed.
Actually, no I wont because I hate Islam.

Uh, why was the Sultanate of Cordoba NOT part of the Arabic caliphate again ?
Joseph Cruz
>Visigoth >>>libraries Yes they had plenties.Read who San Isidoro was.Visigoths valued culture a lot and kept most of the Roman books intact >contribute nothing new to it Basically true outside of Averroes.But Averroes basically just plagiarized Aristotles >most christian territorial gains were thanks to crusader knights Religious orders were very important but most conquest was done under the king. >why was the Sultanate of Cordoba No such thing > NOT part of the Arabic caliphate again ? It was part of the Umayyad empire for 50 years.Why are muzzies literally so ignorant and uninformed about everything?

>Calls someone uninformed yet assume this is relevent when the original line was
>collapse once your sugar daddy in Baghdad dies >Baghdad
So just to make sure you're well informed unlike those muzzies user, here's a little history lesson:
>en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baghdad >After the fall of the Umayyads, the first Muslim dynasty, the victorious Abbasid rulers wanted their own capital whence they could rule. They chose a site north of the Sassanid capital of Ctesiphon (and also just north of where ancient Babylon had once stood), on 30 July 762,[28] the caliph Al-Mansur commissioned the construction of the city, and it was built under the supervision of the Barmakids.[29] Mansur believed that Baghdad was the perfect city to be the capital of the Islamic empire under the Abbasids.

Connor Carter
the crusaders only helped during the 2nd Crusade and mostly just the Siege of Lisbon the vast majority of fighting was done by the natives, while the Knights Templar had a small permanent garrisson in Portugal
Josiah Watson
It became its different entity after the Umayyads got overthrown and exiled to Iberia. This "sugar daddy" didn't existl, because these two realms were enemies, you absolute fucking retard. Is this the power of superior white christian brains?
Besides that >It was part of the Umayyad empire for 50 years

Portugal biggest reason to leave was that Spain destroyed their fleet and didn't help against the dutch attacks on the portuguese colonies
Jeremiah Ward
>Portugal biggest reason to leave was that Spain destroyed their fleet and didn't help against the dutch attacks on the portuguese colonies Both of these statements are wrong. In fact a Spanish admiral was the one that kicked Dutch out of Brazil. Portugal lost against the Netherlands after declaring independence not before
