The Reconquista refers to the long process of Christian kingdoms in the Iberian Peninsula reclaiming territory from Islamic rule, starting with the Umayyad conquest of the Iberian Peninsula in 711. It extended over centuries, involving various Christian and Muslim states. The territories involved included modern-day Spain and Portugal. The Reconquista concluded with the fall of Granada in 1492, marking the end of Muslim rule in the Iberian Peninsula and the unification of Spain under the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile.
