Hola chicos y chicas. What happened in Spain in 711 changed the course of History. Visigothic Hispania became al-Andalus and wonders from the East arrived to Europe. In the next few classes, we will learn about the Muslim conquest of Iberia and its consequences. 

Please watch this video until minute 40. The rest of the video is pretty cool too and it takes place in Sicily. So if you want to watch it, that's fine too. 

Make sure you understand the cultural, scientific and technological advances that the Muslims brought to Spain.
