European and Western History (br) Chuko Shinsho / At the beginning of the 8th century, Islam crossed Strait of Gibraltar and extended its influence to the Iberia Peninsula and France. After that, the Christians gradually pushed back and drove out the Islamic forces with the fall of Granada in 1492. This "holy war" that lasted for 800 years is called "Reconquista." However, neither the Christians nor the Muslims were in Ichimai-iwa monolith. It was dominated by war and peace, tolerance and intolerance, reconciliation and friction. This is the first comprehensive history to talk about Reconquista.
