Background Information
In the early 8th Century, Spain was conquered and ruled by the Islamic Caliphate. The Muslim ruled the Iberian Peninsula which became autonomous from Baghdad. A small handful of Christians left out of the Muslim rule and established the Carolingian Empire near the Pyreneean range. Which eventually led to the emergence of the Christian kingdoms of Leon, Castile, Aragon, Portugal and Navaree.
These Christian kingdoms culminated their rule and seize the last bit of Muslim polity in 1492 which took 700 years to do that. Political conglomeration among the Christian kingdoms also ensued and led the dynastic union of Castile and Aragon under Catholic Monarchs, which ultimately unified Spain as an entire country.
