If you think of Spain, you probably think of a predominantly catholic country with major cathedrals and churches in every village. However, most of the Iberian peninsula for almost 800 years was under Muslim control. The legacy of the Moorish occupation can still be seen in the names of places and some of Spain’s most historic buildings. Learn more about Al Andalus, the area of Muslim-controlled Spain, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
