Before the Muslim invasion in 711, Spain was primarily under the control of the Visigoths, a Germanic tribe that had established a kingdom in the Iberian Peninsula following the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The Visigothic Kingdom was characterized by its Christian leadership and a feudal system. Tensions and internal conflicts weakened the Visigoths, making the region vulnerable to the subsequent Muslim conquest.
The statement that is not true of Muslims is "The Muslims controlled all of Europe." While Muslims did establish significant territories in parts of Europe, particularly in southern Spain (Al-Andalus) and parts of the Balkan region, they never controlled the entirety of Europe. Their influence was substantial but geographically limited.
