Answer 1Muslims ruled almost the entire Spain for about 800 years. Later the Christian Crusaders came to Spain and wiped out the Muslims.Hispania was the Latin name given to the whole Iberian Peninsula (covering the territories of present day Spain and Portugal)Answer 2Muslims conquered most of the Iberian Peninsula from 711 CE to 750 CE, excepting the northern provinces which today are identified as A Coruña, Asturias, Santander, País Vasco, Pamplona, and Gerona. However, they held the northernmost territories (such as Barcelona) for around 70 years. By 1038, Alfonso VI had reconquered the northern half of Spain. By 1248, the only Muslim Kingdom remaining in Spain was the Nasrid Kingdom of Granada, which survived until it too was conquered in 1492. The Muslims only ruled the Grenada area for 800 years.
The roles of the Romans in the Second Punic War were both that of the defenders and attackers. In the first phase Hannibal, the Carthaginian general, invaded Italy and the Romans had to defend both Italy and themselves. The war was also fought in Spain, where the Romans were attackers. The war started with Hannibal's attack on a Spanish city which was an ally of Rome. After failed negotiations, Rome had to declare war on the Carthaginians because of her commitment to protect her allies. She sent an expedition to Spain which was defeated. A second expedition was victorious and the Romans took over the Carthaginian possessions in southern Spain. In the final phase of the war Rome sent an expedition to Tunisia, which is where Carthage was, attacked the Carthaginians and won the war.
