What year did Spain gain it's Independence?

Question

I'm doing a project in Spanish 1 and I need to know what year and from whom did Spain gain its Independence.

Answer 1

1814 France

Answer 2

The Moors conquered Spain between 711 and 718. The Christians gradually regained sovereignty over Spain during the following centuries, with the last Moorish kingdom in Spain (Granada) falling to Ferdinand and Isabella (of Columbus fame) in 1492.

Answer 3

There could be several events in Spanish history that would be considered 'gaining it's independence'.
It was part of the Roman Empire.
It was a group of smaller kingdoms that were combined into one powerful one.
It was occupied by Muslim Moors from Africa who held dominion over much of the lands for many years. (a partial cause of the Crusades, which were Muslim aggressions into Europe)
It was controlled by France....a couple of times maybe?
It was controlled by Fascists in the 1930s.

I suggest you go look at a Wikipedia or encyclopedia article and spend 10 minutes reading it for an accurate history....this is all from memory!

Answer 4

the Iberian peninsula was characterized by a variety of independent kingdoms prior to the Muslim occupation that began in the early 8th century AD and lasted nearly seven centuries; the small Christian redoubts of the north began the reconquest almost immediately, culminating in the seizure of Granada in 1492; this event completed the unification of several kingdoms and is traditionally considered the forging of present-day Spain.
