Err, the Spanish Reconquista only officially ended in 1492, after the fall of the last Islamic state in Iberia at Granada to the expanding Christian kingdoms. Columbus first crossed the Atlantic in guess which year? 1492. Cortez first landed in Central America in 1519. What were you saying about failing History again? I have HIGHLIGHTED the point for you. I suggest you stick to the area of history you know, not what you found in wikki. The 200 years of Australian history you studied for you Ba is much less taxing on your brain BS http://static.comicvine.com/uploads/original/12/128170/2467911-yawn_20smiley.jpgOh, dearie, dearie, me. Poor, poor, JSN. You appear to have not understood the whole sentence which was referring to the reconquista of Spain - you know, when the Spanish expelled the Moors from Spain? It ended the year Columbus sailed for the New World. That was only some 27 years before Cortez landed in Central America and began his conquest of the Aztecs. I think, Gandalf is correct, the Spanish were well aware of what conquest meant, you appear however to be ignorant of it. Tsk, tsk. Why were there Arab Muslims in Spain? Conquest. It is not the natural habitat of Muslim Arabs - nor is the rest of north Africa and thee Middle east, save Araby. Arabs outside Arabia are intruders, conquerors, and should be bollocked out of there. Islam should be confined to the Arabian peninsula. It certainly should be allowed into western countries. It's posison, division, fractiousness, discord.
