In 1492, Granada fell to the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, marking the end of the Reconquista in Spain. This event culminated in the expulsion of the Muslim Moors from the last stronghold of Islamic rule in the Iberian Peninsula. The fall of Granada was significant not only for Spain's territorial consolidation but also for the subsequent expulsion of Jews and Muslims, leading to major cultural and demographic changes in the region. Additionally, the same year saw Christopher Columbus's expedition, which led to the discovery of the Americas.
