The Reconquista (Reconquest) was the process by which the Christian Kingdoms of northern Hispania defeated and conquered the southern Muslim and moorish states of the Iberian Peninsula, existing since the Arab invasion of 711. The Reconquista is commonly accepted to have started in 722, with the Battle of Covadonga, and finished in 1492, with the conquest of Granada.
In 1236 the Spanish Reconquista led to the subjugation of the last Islamic stronghold of Granada under Mohammed ibn Alhamar to the Christian forces of Ferdinand III of Castile. From there on Granada became a vassal state to the Christian kingdom for the following 250 years until January 2, 1492 when the last Muslim leader Boabdil of Granada surrendered complete control of the remnants of the last Moorish stronghold - Granada - to Ferdinand and Isabella, Los Reyes Católicos ("The Catholic Kings"). This united most of modern Spain under their rule, excluding Navarre, which remained separate until 1512.
The Portuguese Reconquista culminated in 1249 with the subjugation of Algarve by Afonso III.
