Sorry, you might be refering to the MOORISH city of Cordoba.

Moors that were actual Spaniards converted to Islam.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muladi

>In Islamic history muwalladun designates in a broader sense non-Arab Muslims or the descendants of converts. In the Muslim-ruled parts of the Iberian Peninsula, parts of the indigenous until-then Christian population (basically a mixture of the pre-Roman peoples of the Iberian Peninsula, ancient Romans, Visigoths and Suebi) converted to Islam in the 8th and 9th centuries. In the 10th century a massive conversion of Christians took place, so that muladies comprised the majority of the population of Al-Andalus by the century's end. However, the majority of Muwallads had embraced Islam early, but retained many pre-Islamic customs and characteristics.

>muladies comprised the majority of the population of Al-Andalus

Muladi = Iberian converted to Islam

I'm pretty sure it was Indians that came up with that.
Actually all the Arabic numerals originally come from India which is why they are called "Hindu numerals" by the Arabs themselves.

The political elite was the Arabs, the cult language was arab, the moneys were for the Arabs and the Caliphate was arab (Umayyad).

It's sad, really, I saw a documentary of the descendants of the expelled Iberian Moors that live in Morocco and most of them looked "white", yes well kinda swarthy like us but many with light eyes and overall european features, different from the more typical Moroccan, and they still had the keys of the houses their ancestors were expelled from.

And the Moors were actually expelled much later than the Jews, and only after many islamic rebellions (like the one of the Alpujarras) and the idea that they were supporting the Barbary piratery (which was true, they were harboring them) and the Ottoman Empire.

The expulsion had actually a very negative economical impact on Spain, and many farms were left empty and unproductive.

Nope. Cordoba was ruled by Muslims, many of whom were actually converted Visigoth and Iberian nobility to avoid revolt. It was populated by a majority of Iberians.

The Golden Age we see in Spain did not exist in the rest of the Islamic world at the time.

False, only at the beginning, and the Golden Age of Al-Andalus started when they broke up from the Umayyads.

They formed the political Muslim elite afterwards.

The reason why they declared independence from the Umayyad Caliphate was over racial tensions between Arabs and the Iberian Muslims.

>The inequality of Muslims in the empire led to social unrest. As Islam spread, more and more of the Muslim population was constituted of non-Arabs. This caused tension as the new converts were not given the same rights as Muslim Arabs. Also, as conversions increased, tax revenues from non-Muslims decreased to dangerous lows.

No.

The Moors actually broke from the Umayyad Arab Caliphate very early and formed their own Emirate in the 756. And in 929 they even formed their own caliphate under Abderramán III. They were still an "Umayyad" dinasty, yes, but with more native Iberian blood than anything else.

For example, the very same Abderramán III that proclaimed the Cordoba Caliphate had blue eyes and a red beard that he dyed black, and his mother was an iberian christian from northern Spain (literally a "rape baby"), but his "Umayyad" father was also more Iberian than anything else.

>>
>>60803800
Because he founded an independent Emirate in the 756, holy shit.

Why did he form and independent Emirate? Well, probably because the fucking Arab Umayyad Caliphate that reached from Spain to Persia was "dismantled" in the 750 after the Abassid revolution, in which he fought for the Umayyads against the Abassids.

And as you should know the muslim Spain was never part of that Abassid Caliphate.

And he was so "arab" that his mother was berber and his wife was a converted visigothic slave, making his children 2/4 visigothic, 1/4 berber and 1/4 arab, nice "Arab dinasty" you have there.

We were the first Sweden of Europe

Muslims were goin to be expelled and then christian population and rulers went against the monarchic decision.

Christian families hidding muslim families in their houses, muslim women bringing their children to christian families and changing their name, etc

Totally a tragedy imo. Considering also that they were genetically the same than the christian ones, but with a different religion. The muslim conquest didn't really export many arab citizens, just a bit. But assimilation was strong
