Spanish show 'La Historia de España-Memorias Hispánicas': <a href= "https://www.youtube.com/@lahistoriaespana">https://www.youtube.com/@lahistoriaespana</a> Provide me your email to get notified for my upcoming book: <a href="https://subscribepage.io/N3KOMF">https://subscribepage.io/N3KOMF</a> How did the Caliphate of Córdoba fall and fragment into dozens of taifa kingdoms?

Among other things, I discuss the revolutionary atmosphere in Córdoba, the Castilian and Catalan expeditions, the siege and ruin of the capital, the formation of the underrated Hammudid Caliphate, and the consequences of the fragmentation of al-Andalus into some thirty states.

49. Al-Muzaffar, the Continuator of the Amirid Regime

Episode 49 explains the brief six-year rule of Abd al-Malik al-Muzaffar, son and successor of Almanzor. I discuss his military campaigns and the achievements and challenges of his rule between 1002 and 1008. His untimely death was the first step towards the destruction of the Caliphate of Córdoba and the end of Andalusi hegemony and Islam in the Iberian Peninsula.
