Why is Al-Andalus still perceived as an invasive, alien body lodged into the body of Europe when it was present for seven centuries - longer than there has been a unified spain? By this logic, are the germanic peoples of europe still "foreign invaders"? Are the japanese invading ainu lands still?

      Albania is a special case because it is technically in europe but as a cultural and demographical unit it was so insular that it isn't the best example if you want to push the whole "islam has been a part of europe for centuries" thing. It was the "here be dragons" of Europe until the end of the 19th century.

          Christianity was easily molded to suit European needs.

          Europe was shaped by Christianity just as much as Christianity was by Europe.

          Islam was also developed around European influences as well when it came in contact with them (notably the Islamic theologians that were influenced by Plato and Aristotle, as well as those who originated from Al-Andalus.
          Likewise, Islam shaped European societies that it interacted with as well. The same kind of interplay took place between the religion and culture of Europe wherever Islam was introduced, just like Christianity.
          If Islam had spread further, it would have adopted a more explicitly European character just like Christianity. So I disagree with the distinction you are making here.

            Yep, this is a historical fact, since the first invasion in the 7th century all the way to 1492 there were always Christians resisting and fighting back in the peninsula, pushing the Muslims further and further south until they finally expelled them all, and the inquisition made sure to erase any remaining Islamic influence.

        It's not even a matter of being an "invader" or not either, they were simply heathens and so it was believed they needed to convert or be expelled
        Indigenous peoples in Bosnia were persecuted for professing an off-brand semi-Christian gnosticism just because it was branded heresy. Same thing happened centuries later after the Reformation in some places too. It had nothing to do with who invaded whom, but that the religion professed was incorrect

        So what? They were still Christians, if a land that was controlled by the Sunnis suddenly gets controlled by the Shias, does that mean it seizes to be controlled by Muslims? The only reason you'd make this objection would be if you don't think Arians are Christians.

    Are you moronic? Have you ever seen a timeline of Al-Andalus? The Christians had already taken back over half of the peninsula by the 12th century. The only, and I mean the ONLY territory that was actually controlled by the Muslim for 7 solid centuries was Granada, that's literally it.

    But since when did Christians "controlled" Iberia? I'd say from around 400, when Christianity became the state religion. That means Iberia had been "controlled" by Christians for 300 years by the time Arabs invaded. It had been controlled by Germans for about the same time. That means by 1100 Muslims had been in control of their half of Iberia for 400 years - longer than Christians ever had by that time.

    I have absolutely no respect for the people who deny the obvious Easternness of Islamic empires; whatever landmass they may be sited on. I know you're trying to appear as an enlightened, liberal-minded genius and all, but you're really just erasing the legacy of the Orient to glorify the Occident, much like those evil /misc/acks you so despise. Christendom and Islamic Civilization are simply clean different things, and we all know it.

      The orient is nice and exotic, so you should leave them be, maybe study them out of curiosity, but still respect your own culture.

    >Why is Al-Andalus still perceived as an invasive,

    Because berbers were not europeans. The Reconquista was a movement to free Europe from an aline muslim and non-european invasion

    They were unified for not even 50 years before starting to balkanize and lose territory

      I mean technically the Umayyads lasted a couple of centuries before they had an autism attack and the Reconquista really started gaining steam.

    Same reason whites in South Africa are viewed as invasive aliens despite living there for 500 years.

    Most of the Dynasties were dogshit and the natives treated like shit. Anything good about Al Andalusia happened during the Umayyads.

    This is the kind of questions only a pseudo-intellectual could ask. If they were kicked out as a governing body first then as a people second Einstein then surely they didn't graft themselves on thier conquest? That much should be self-evident.

      Specially make more fake pictures and images of gypsies
      Iberians not only have no genetic proximity to moors genetically but are even closer to someone in Norway or Russia than to any non-european.
      get fricked

      >"Genetic distances and principal component analyses show a clear differentiation of NW African and Iberian groups of samples, suggesting a strong genetic barrier matching the geographical Mediterranean Sea barrier. The restriction to gene flow may be attributed to the navigational hazards across the Straits, but cultural factors must also have played a role. ... Iberian samples show a substantial degree of homogeneity and fall within the cluster of European-based genetic diversity."

    why do leftists consider apartheid south africa invasive, alien body lodged into the body of africa, and al-andalus as quintessentially european, 100% wholesome and the ideal medieval state when al andalus was arab supremacist?
    >The ethnic structure of al-Andalus consisted of Arabs at the top of the social scale followed by, in descending order, Berbers, Muladies, Mozarabes, and israelites.[82] Each of these communities inhabited distinct neighborhoods in the cities. In the 10th century a massive conversion of Christians took place, and muladies (Muslims of native Iberian origin), formed the majority of Muslims.
