The Islamic Empire, particularly during its early expansion in the 7th and 8th centuries, took over parts of Spain, which became known as Al-Andalus. The Umayyad Caliphate established control over much of the Iberian Peninsula, leading to significant cultural and scientific advancements in the region. This influence lasted for several centuries before the Reconquista, the Christian reconquest of Spain, began in the late 15th century.
