Conquest of andalus
Hello all steemian.
According to the story of an Islamic source, at the beginning of the 8th century, a budgeted armed force was approximately 10,000-15,000 combat experts [3] headed by Tariq ibn Ziyad crossing from North Africa. Ibn Abdul Hakim reported, one and a half centuries later, that "the Andalus did not monitor them, as it was assumed that the ships that were recrossing crossed as if merchant ships were recurring for their benefit." The Tariq Force killed the Visigoth army, headed by Roderic in a battle of muktamad known as the Battle of Guadalete in 712. Tariq's forces were later confirmed by the armies of his chairman, Amir Musa ibn Nusair, and so on to conquer most of the Iberians.
In the time of the second Arab gabhenor (or first, depending on the source) Abd al-Aziz ibn Musa (714-716 AD), the major cities of Catalonia surrendered and the Islamic army reached Pamplona. Following the negotiations that resulted in the approval of the Berber-Arab commanders to honor the city and its inhabitants, Pamplona also surrendered. (Amalan compromise is commonly done with many dealers on the Iberian peninsula). The Islamic armies did not experience much opposition, and by taking the guessing of the state of nexus in those days, three years was a municipality & emdash; after ensuring the safety and administration of captured & emdash bands; to delegate the area so as to the Pyrenees.
Babad Year 754 (The Chronicle of 754) declared "the whole Gothic army, which follows it [Roderic] with the intention of deceiving and with the attitude of competing to become king, run away". This is a single contemporary account of the battle and lack of detail prompting historians of history to later create their own story. The battleground is unclear but is likely to be on the Guadalete River.
Roderic is believed to have been murdered, and the defeat must have caused the Visigoths to lose their leader and be in a state of turmoil. In this case, budgeted Visigoths who ruled only as much as 1 or 2% of the total population, something that makes the fall of the Visigoth kingdom almost instantaneous. The power that arose from the downfall of the Visigoth kingdom, which may have spelled Tariq himself, is certainly a great help to the conquest of Hispania by Muslims.
Most of the Islamic army troops are members of the Berber who themselves embraced Islam. Emphasizing that this collision might be the greatest extent of the history of the massive invasion of Iberia from pre-Islamic times, is reserved that the true Iberian conquest was not originally designed. Both Chronicles and Islamic sources tell about the recklessness in previous years, and the Tariq army may have been in Iberia for a long time before the muktamad battle in Guadalete. Historians suggest this possibility is supported by the fact that the army led by a Berber and Musa, the North African Umayyad gabenor, only reached Iberia in the following year of the battle of Guadalete - the gabenor did not want to engage in an assault and only after the victory became clear. Babad Year 754 states that crowded than city residents do not defend their bookies; on the contrary they run into the hill area, and this story may be able to support the opinion that this is not an eternal exchange of government but only a temporary incursion.
