Wat?
>>
>>444735
A part that is often ignored is that a deposed Visigoth prince actually invited the Islamic invasion after being driven out. I don't know why this is always ignored.

>>444735
One of the biggest and most important accidents in history.
>>
>>444735
Also Based Tariq Ibn Ziyad burning the ships upon arriving in Spain: "oh my brothers, Where will you turn? The enemy is before you and the sea behind you."

they'd probably just have done it anyway

same way the welsh normans probably would've invaded Ireland even if Dearmad the traitor hadn't invited them
>>
>>444776
Serves them right for having an elective monarchy. Still, if that buttblasted idiot hadn't invited the Moroccans, they probably would have invaded anyway.
>>
>>444776
Because that would raise too many parallels with the modern times.

If people knew that, historically, inviting another people to your country so you can beat your domestic political enemies is a very bad idea, they would have more qualms about importing immigrants so they can vote for left-wing parties and defeat white devils.

So how were the Uyummad armies organized?

Were these bands of untrained mobs or well oiled units?

Fine, you're a retarded /int/fag with his retarded meemz. You're still not welcome here.

Extremely competent, militarily speaking. They managed to overrun the Visigoths who weren't exactly incompetent. They invaded in 711 and their advance was only stopped around 732.
