Did the romans occoupy spain for seven centuries?

The Romans occupied Andalusia and Catalonia for nearly 700 years. The conquest of Spain was very gradual. The Romans took over southern Spain from the Carthaginians in 206 BC and annexed the northern part of the Mediterranean coast in 197 BC. They took over the rest of Spain gradually and the conquest of the whole peninsula was completed by Augustus in 19 BC. The Romans lost Spain to the Visigoths in the late 5th century AD. The Byzantines, the Romans of the Roman Empire of the East, retook Andalusia in and held it until 2, when the Visigoths conquered it again.


Did the Romans occupied Spain for 7 centuries?

The Romans occupied southern and eastern Spain for seven centuries. They took southern Spain over from the Carthaginians in 206 BC when Scipio Africanus defeated them there. It became the Roman province of Hispania Ulterior (Further Spain). They also turned the east coast into the province of Hispania Citerior (Nearer Spain). The rest of Spain was conquered much later. Lusitania (Portugal and western Spain) was conquered in 139 BC. North-western Spain was conquered in the Cantabrian Wars (29-19 BC) during the reign of Augustus. The Vandals, Alans and Sueves settled in Hispania (Spain and Portugal) as allies of the Romans in the 409 AD. However, the Romans lost control of the area and these peoples formed their own kingdoms. In 415 the emperor Honorius commissioned the king of the Visigoths to restore order in Hispania and gave him the right to settle there and govern the area in exchange for defending it. In 429 the Vandals and Alans fled to Africa. The Visigoths established their own kingdom and became effectively independent when Honorius was deposed in 476.
