The Muslims of the Iberian Peninsula, who ruled Spain between 711 and 1492 C.E., are commonly known as the Moors. They called their land Andalus which in the early period of their history also included Portugal and southern France and in the last period only the Kingdom of Granada. The word Andalusia is derived from the Arabic word Al-Andalus which has several meanings. One of them is ‘to become green after a long summer or drought,’ and the history of the Iberian Peninsula over the ages attests to this phase when Muslims ruled Spain. In the earliest setback in southern France, the Muslims were defeated at Tours-Poitiers (about two-thirds of the way to Paris) during the month of Ramadan in 732 CE. This place is known as 'The Pavement of the Martyrs' and in Muslim cronicles as Balaat ash-Shuhada'. Muslim control of Toulouse, Narbonne, Lyon and nearby territories varied from time to time, as some of the territories were lost, regained, and then lost. This went on until 975 C.E. The word Moors is a corrupted word referring to the people who came from Morocco. The Christians of the Iberian Peninsula began to use this term exclusively for Muslims when the Muslims lost administrative control of northern parts of Spain and Portugal. Later, other words such as Moriscos and Mudejares were used for them beginning in the mid-thirteenth century. When Muslims first arrived in Spain in 711 C.E., they constituted mainly Arabs and Berbers of North Africa. Within two decades a majority of the inhabitants of Andalus, especially most of the Unitarian Christians and the oppressed class, accepted Islam freely in recognition of the peace, security and the freedom of religion and expression under the Muslim rule. (Gothic Princess Sara). By 770 C.E. people of all races from North Africa and Arabia migrated to Andalusia (Spain and Portugal). They intermarried with various nationalities including the native Spanish-Muslim population, with the result that Spain became a fairly homogeneous country within a few generations. During the reign of Abdur-Rahman, the 'Falcon of Andalus' (755-788), they began the work of building an Islamic civilization similar to the one already flourishing in Damascus, Baghdad and its many regional centers. Within a century of their activity, they had developed a civilization far in advance of any in Europe. Their great contribution is commonly known as the Moorish Civilization. 4 Likes |

hahn: UNITE THE BLACK RACE? We are getting there bit-by-bit! Remember Patrice Lumumba? Quame Nkrumah? Thomas Sankara? Muritala Muhammed? ..just to name a few Africans who tried to "do something for Africa"! Now YOU KNOW WHY MUAMAR GHADAFI WAS KILLED AND HIS FAMILY DECIMATED! Not that thrash you watch on CNN about "killing Protesters or Democracy" (can you even call the revolt/insurgency and tribal war originating from Benghazi, a democratic revolt?) Africans (l mean our Youths), should read about those days when just to make a phone call from Nigeria to Ghana next door, you have to queue in NITEL for like six hours and that call will cost you half of your Monthly Salary because the call is first routed to Europe or America, from Nigeria and then back to Ghana next door! (Stewpid, right?) .... and "read-up" on What Ghadafi did via "Africa must have its own under-sea Cable to channel its communications "DIRECT" between its member states and the external world. FYI, Europe and America slammed us with a horrendous "Billion Dollar Bill" and it was Ghadafi who championed this effort by Putting down HALF OF THE MONEY; in CASH! Nigeria was the second largest donor with about a "Quarter" of this bill...and other African states chipped-in the rest. So, next time you make that "International Call or Internet", REMEMBER THAT "Dictator" called Maumar Ghadafi!. If it was about Democracy, Libya would not be a failed state and a terrorist haven right now, ..three years after the "West Liberated" them from Ghadafi. Those who dont know their "history", .....are like Goats wondering in the deserts.... they wont know until they see themselves in the paws of a Lion! (Its a Proverb!) Lastpage! BTW: Lets start the UNITY from our own NIGERIA (IGBO, YORUBA, HAUSA, MINORITIES)... afterall "charity they say, starts from home"! 26 Likes 6 Shares |

I always feel a certain kind of joy come over me when I see topics like this. Africa would do better as a whole being one people. We don't necessarily have to be one country, but we can be one nation whereby we have a central military,central language, central resource control body, central currency, central economy etc. That way,we all live truly as brothers because if something affects any part of Africa,it affects all the parts of Africa & if one part of Africa progresses, all parts of Africa progresses. That reminds me of the word "ubuntu" from our brothers in southern Africa. Ubuntu translates to "human-ness" but it is used to portray the saying: "I am what I am because of who we all are". I'm still trying to do a little study on the now defunct USSR to see if there's any way we can come up with a union like that for Africa. Keyword there is "study"...I might as well even come up with ideas/opinions way better and not even related to the former USSR. 6 Likes 1 Share |

You can't be united if you don't give up those foreign religions...remnants of slavery and colonialism. But no! Blacks preferred the Jews/Arab gods, In fact we are now teaching them how to worship the gods they created. We are taking things to the extreme! I don't see blacks uniting any sooner until we take out foreign religions from our society. Oh! Just realized that isn't even possible...of course the average blacks is scared of the White god imaginary lake of fire and they also vehemently hope they will go inherit mansions up in the sky. If you are a black Christian/Muslim you have real short memory. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Blacks can and will never be united. Being black is bad. Blacks are dumb, greedy and lazy. If you want black unity, then don't preach black unity to this generation cos this generation of blacks are dumb and hopeless and can't unite or fight for themselves. They prefer to play second fiddle and they're content with the fact that they've being relegated to the dustin bins of history. It's easier said that done. @op do yourself a favour and save your breath cos at the end of the day you'll just be wasting your time. Blacks are natural born cowards. I regret belonging to this dumb race. 3 Likes 1 Share |
