アブド・アッラフマーン1世
From 711 CE, in its weak state, the Visigoth Kingdom gave way to Muslim invaders from North Africa. In July 712 CE, Musa bin Nusayr, the provincial governor of northwest Africa, brought 18,000 men across the Strait of Gibraltar, paused at the fortress of Carmona, approximately northwest of Marchena, and then took Seville. Iberia became part of the greater Umayyad Caliphate under Abd al-Rahman I (731 CE 788 CE).
