In 1492, the Iberian Peninsula witnessed the completion of the Reconquista with the capture of Granada, the last Muslim stronghold in Spain, by the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile. This marked the end of nearly 800 years of Muslim rule in parts of the peninsula. Additionally, 1492 is notable for Christopher Columbus's expedition, which led to the discovery of the Americas, as he sailed under the Spanish flag seeking a westward route to Asia. These events significantly shaped the course of Spanish history and global exploration.
