- Umayyad_conquest_of_Hispania abstract "The Umayyad conquest of Hispania is the initial Islamic Umayyad Caliphate's conquest, between 711 and 788, of the Christian Visigothic Kingdom of Hispania, centered in the Iberian Peninsula, which was known to them under the Arabic name al-Andalus.The conquest began with an invasion by an army that (according to traditional accounts) consisted largely of Berber Northwest Africans and Arabs, and was commanded by Tariq ibn Ziyad. They disembarked in early 711 at Gibraltar and campaigned their way northward. After the decisive Battle of Guadalete against the usurper Roderic and the support provided to the Saracens by the legitimate heirs to the throne, the initial raids became, to the surprise of the raiders themselves, territorial gains successfully conquered and retained. The Visigothic kingdom splintered into client-dominions of the Umayyads. Over the following decade, most of the Iberian Peninsula was further occupied and brought under Umayyad sovereignty. In 714 Musa ibn Nusayr headed north-west up the Ebro river to overrun western Basque regions and the Cantabrian mountains all the way to Gallaecia, with no relevant or attested opposition. However, these northern areas drew little interest to the conquerors and were hard to defend when taken. The high western and central sub-Pyrenean valleys remained unconquered.By 717 the Islamic invasion of Gaul (later France) had commenced. The Umayyads occupied Septimania, then under the client-king Ardo, only to be temporarily halted by Odo the Great's Aquitanians in the Battle of Toulouse (721). However, after massing a larger army, the combined Arab-Berber forces resumed their advance to the north-west, defeating Odo at the Battle of the River Garonne. Odo allied with his foe Charles Martel, the effective ruler of Francia (Neustria, Austrasia and Burgundy), who after a forced march defeated the Muslims at the Battle of Tours (or Poitiers) in 732 (or 733). The Franks completely expelled the Umayyad forces in 759 following the Siege of Narbonne (752-759). However, control by different Muslim forces of territory within present-day France (for example, the stronghold of Fraxinet) was intermittent up to 975.Though Muslim armies dominated the Iberian Peninsula for centuries afterward, the victory of Pelagius of Asturias at the Battle of Covadonga in 722, considered in Arab chronicles a revolt in subdued territory, preserved at least one Christian principality in the north. The initial status and boundaries of the Duchy of Cantabria, to join Asturias under Pelagius, is also unclear. Covadonga later assumed major symbolic importance for Iberian Christians as the beginning of the Reconquista.According to the Islamic rule of law, the sharia, Jews and Christians are "people of the scriptures" who may be permitted to practice their respective faiths if they submit to Muslim domination. For this reason numerous Jewish and Christian sects survived and even prospered through the centuries of Islamic rule in al-Andalus.".
