Question 4

What are the names of the 2 papal bulls and when we’re they issued.

Answer 4

It appears you’re interested in Pope Nicholas V and historical documents related to his papacy. It’s important to clarify that the focus is on papal bulls, not “paper bowls.” The key documents associated with Pope Nicholas V and their impact are:
* Dum Diversas:
* This papal bull was issued on June 18, 1452.
* It granted King Afonso V of Portugal authority to subjugate and conquer those deemed enemies of the Christian faith.
* This document is historically significant because it played a role in the justification of the Portuguese slave trade.
* Romanus Pontifex:
* This papal bull was issued in 1455.
* It reinforced the authority given to Portugal in Dum Diversas, further solidifying their control over trade and territories in Africa.
* This also reinforced the portuguese rights to enslave people.
These papal bulls are crucial for understanding the historical context of the early stages of the transatlantic slave trade and European colonialism.
Here’s a breakdown of Pope Nicholas V’s timeline:
* He reigned from 1447 to 1455.
Therefore, the bulls were issued within those years.

Question 5

How long was the mmoors in spain

Answer 5

To understand the timeline of the Moors in Spain, here’s a breakdown:
* Beginning:
* The Moorish conquest of the Iberian Peninsula began in 711 AD. This is when Muslim forces, led by Tariq ibn Ziyad, crossed the Strait of Gibraltar and invaded.
* Duration:
* The Moorish presence in Spain lasted for a significant period, from 711 AD to 1492 AD. This period is often referred to as Al-Andalus.
* End:
* The Reconquista, the Christian reconquest of the Iberian Peninsula, culminated in 1492 with the fall of Granada, the last Moorish stronghold.
Therefore, the Moors were in Spain from 711 AD to 1492 AD.

The “collapse” of the Moors in Spain was a gradual process resulting from the Reconquista, a centuries-long campaign by Christian kingdoms to reclaim the Iberian Peninsula. It wasn’t the work of a single individual, but rather a combination of factors and key figures:
* The Reconquista:
* This was the primary driving force. Christian kingdoms in the north, such as Castile, Aragon, and others, steadily pushed southward.
* Key moments, like the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212, significantly weakened Moorish power.
* King Ferdinand II of Aragon and Queen Isabella I of Castile:
* Their marriage and unification of their kingdoms provided the strength and resources needed to complete the Reconquista.
* They were ultimately responsible for the final conquest of Granada in 1492, marking the end of Moorish rule in Spain.
* Internal divisions:
* Internal conflicts and rivalries among the various Moorish kingdoms also contributed to their weakening.
* Military actions:
* The constant military pressure from the christian kingdoms, with the increase of military technology, and the increase of the strength of the christian kingdoms, over time, wore down the moorish holdings.
In essence, the “collapse” was the culmination of centuries of conflict, with Ferdinand and Isabella playing the decisive role in the final stage.
