@adk1totiktok: • The moors🇲🇦 Vs The iberians🇪🇸🇵🇹 • 800 years vs 7 years 🤣🫲 The rivalry between Morocco and the Iberian kingdoms of Spain and Portugal was one of the longest conflicts in Mediterranean history. It began when Muslim forces from North Africa crossed into the Iberian Peninsula in 711 under Tariq ibn Ziyad, opening the period of Al-Andalus, where much of Spain and Portugal came under Muslim rule. For centuries, powerful Moroccan dynasties such as the Almoravid dynasty and the Almohad Caliphate crossed into Iberia to defend and strengthen Muslim territories against the Christian kingdoms of Castile, Aragon, and Portugal. This created a continuous military and political struggle known as the Reconquista, which lasted until 1492 with the fall of Granada. After the end of Muslim rule in Iberia, the balance of power reversed. Spain and Portugal began expanding into North Africa, occupying strategic coastal cities and ports. Morocco resisted this expansion through military campaigns and naval resistance. Under the Saadi Sultanate, Morocco achieved a major victory at the Battle of the Three Kings in 1578, defeating Portugal and preserving Moroccan independence. This rivalry was not only about religion, but also trade routes, strategic control of the Strait of Gibraltar, territorial expansion, and regional dominance between North Africa and Iberia. #moors #Spain #Portugal #History #andalucia ##fyppppppppppppppppppppppp #viral #fyp
