Explanation:

Al-Andalus[a] (Arabic: الأَنْدَلُس‎) was the name of the Iberian Peninsula, given by the Moors during the Middle Ages.[1] At its greatest geographical extent, its territory occupied most of the peninsula[2] and a part of present-day southern France, Septimania (8th century), and for nearly a century (9th–10th centuries) extended its control from Fraxinet over the Alpine passes which connect Italy to Western Europe.[3][4][5] The name more specifically describes the different Arab or Berber states that controlled these territories at various times between 711 and 1492, though the boundaries changed constantly as the Christian Reconquista progressed,[6][7][8] eventually shrinking to the south and finally to the vassalage of the Emirate of Granada.
