Why the Muslims didn and rsquot continue to conquer Catholic areas in the northern region of the Iberian Peninsula.?
The Muslims did not continue to conquer Catholic areas in the northern region of the Iberian Peninsula primarily due to the rise of organized Christian resistance, particularly during the Reconquista. The harsh mountainous terrain of northern Iberia made military campaigns challenging and costly. Additionally, internal divisions and shifts in power dynamics within the Muslim territories, along with the establishment of strong Christian kingdoms, contributed to the halt of further Muslim expansion into these regions.
Do Spaniards invade Muslim lands?
You have to define what a Muslim land is. Moroccans claim that the Spanish cities of Ceuta and Melilla are part of the territorial integrity of Morocco. Spain responds that it has controlled both of those cities since 1497, before the creation of the Alouite Dynasty in Morocco (in the 1600s) and before even the annexation of Navarre (in 1515). As a result, they are historically Spanish lands, not Moroccan lands. (Whether Moroccan lands are Muslim lands is itself a more involved question of how you "Islamify" a piece of land, but let's avoid that for the moment.) Historically, Spain had colonies in Morocco (north Morocco, ruled from Tetouan, and south Morocco, ruled from Ifni) and controlled Western Sahara (called Rio de Oro at that time). Both of these areas have majority-Muslim populations. Spain handed over control of north Morocco and most of South Morocco in 1956 to Morocco at France's request. Spain gave up Ifni itself after the Ifni War with Morocco and international pressure in 1969. Spain gave Rio de Oro independence in 1975 after which it was promptly annexed by Morocco in the "Green March".
