The Last Muslim King Of Spain, Part 1: Kingdom In Crisis

Anthology Of Heroes History - A podcast by Elliot Gates

For 250 years it survived, living in the shadow of the Christian kingdoms. But that all changed after the marriage between Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragorn united the two most powerful kingdoms in the lands.
