It rarely gets talked about unless you're of Spanish decent, it's common history is Spanish speaking countries. Since without it not only would Europe likely have been conquered by Muslims but without it the Spanish empire would not be nearly as impactful or powerful. The reconquista was one of middle ages Europe's most important events.
There is no such thing as a Hispanic world. Yet there is one Spain. As for the word Hispanic that is made up word from the United States Of America. The US government Anglicize the Latin word Hispanicus dropped the u and created this word. In my day we used the correct term Iberian. And I am retired from the Federal Government.
The Reconquista is underrated. The Spanish and Portugese monarchs, the crusading orders, the aristocrats and commoners deserve more credit. Is there a video covering the Battle of Lucena 1483?
San Fernando nearly completed the Reconquista. He was at it's last steps. I have been to Sevilla and it's cathedral, and may have seen his tomb there. A true hero of Christendom, and the fact that he's one of the only kings (along with King Louis IX of France) to be christened as a saint is testament to that. He makes me proud of my Spanish heritage (I'm Mexican of mostly Spanish descent).
@@baha3alshamari152 I think because the Muslim rulers there were already paying tribute to the Christians. Also because Granada is surrounded by mountains so it wasn’t as easy to reconquer.
@@abcjuniormilton It’s actually because it was a tribunal kingdom that was paying off to the kingdom of Castile, basically making them filthy rich. It would’ve been conquered much sooner but there was setbacks of disease, infighting, and of course the tribute money was too good.
Thanks for making justice to the incredibly underrated San Fernando, patron saint of my city Sevilla!! This year I went to see his uncorrupted remains in the cathedral, which are exposed only once a year, and it's truly mind blowing, he's so well for being a thousand years old!
Whats the best way to watch in chronological order? I feel lost when I watch these as ive been skipping forward and backwards in time. Thanks for all the hard work, enjoy these very much!
the way Fernando is ignored is simply criminal, I hope you make videos about other great Iberian crusaders, talk about Dom Duno, Dom Gualdim Pais, Geraldo "without fear"
Definitely the Greatest King! Wise, brave, magnanimous and Saint! His son, Alfonso, the highest IQ King, the most intelligent and intellectually develop of the Middle Ages.
From a tiny kingdom persecuted by invaders, to a massive global empire. What a run in history. If I were Spain (yes, a country) I would retire forever.
Southern California, where my people come from, is full of place names deriving from the long history of the struggle with Islam. The northern half of the City if Los Angeles (itself named after the Virgin Mary - El Pueblo de Nuestra Senora La Reina de Los Angeles aka The City of Our Lady The Queen of the Angels) is the San Fernando Valley, often called The Valley. It is named after the hero of this program. So is the Franciscan Mission at its heart.
Thank you so, so much for the video clips full of history of a Christian nation. Viva Cristo Rey. Christ The High Priest. Cristo / Christ The KING 👑 of kings and The LORD of lords. 🙏❤️💙
That is why the Cortes of Madrid must retrieve, arrange and codify the Royal Charters of Castile which is the basis of the secular authority of the Spanish Monarch being the living embodiment of Spain , that is, Spain personified ....
@@fortunatomartino8549 Yes. Some people believe his story in the bible is exagerated though. There are different opinions, of course. Some believe the history in the bible is accurated.
Fernando III el Santo, fue sin duda el Rey más humilde y mejor Caballero de la Cristiandad. Siendo niño estuvo muy enfermo y su madre, Dña Berenguela, le pidió a Nuestra Señora por la curación de su siervo Fernando. Estuvo en campaña contra el islam permanentemente, sin descanso, de hecho murió en la cincuentena muy deteriorado físicamente. Solo nombraré de sus muchas proezas militares la toma de Córdoba, que empezó en un descuido de los sarracenos que aprovecharon unos almogávares, estos habiendo tomado parte de la ciudad pidieron ayuda al Rey Fernando, y este claro que acudió, fue incansable hasta el final. Le sucedió su hijo Alfonso X el Sabio, otro grandísimo Rey, y basta decir que la máxima condecoración a los héroes, en el ejército español es la Laureada de San Fernando.
His feast day is coming up! Let's do a Novena for the the big project that the Hispanic Americans are working on to tell the full history of the Catholic Church during the time of the Conquest in America.

It's nice to see a video like this, it feels like the reconquest is overshadowed by many other events and doesn't get talked about very often.

@@alexcavazos3341 I know, Portugal and Spain both are very important to history of the world. Without them the world will look so different

I saw his tomb in the Seville Cathedral two weeks ago. Very solemn place.
I went to Seville and it's cathedral too nearly six years ago, and may have visited his tomb.
The Hispanic World recognizes him and his son as two of its greatest Monarchs

Longest lasting war in world history, 700+ years with an estimated 7 million casualties.
I’m ethnically gothic. The Reconquista is an incredible story of resilience.
Saint Fernando, ora pro nobis.

Why wasn't Granada reconquered till 1492
@@baha3alshamari152 I think because the Muslim rulers there were already paying tribute to the Christians. Also because Granada is surrounded by mountains so it wasn’t as easy to reconquer.

Looking forward to this, don't often get to watch live as I work nights.
inspiring stuff, La Reconquista rocks
I am a fan of the Cordoban Caliphate though...
Yes, thievery ,murder and slavery and extreme torture must rock for you while it just sucks for clear thinking people. You people are hilarious.
A Reconquista, the L is just for Castile
@@frank-ko6de You are peddling fake news nutcase. The reconquista was the resistance against your islamic colonisers..
@@frank-ko6de You might be confusing it with the Muslims of Al-Andalus.

South California was Spanish n Mexican territory. That's why, same with Florida, anywhere where the Spanish touched they left their culture
Excellent Video! When it comes to the History of the Crusades, La Reconquista is often overlooked. Thank you for bringing it forward. "Like"
Glad you enjoyed it!
So Proud of my ancestor San Fernando
São Fernando rogai por nós!
Saint Fernando pray for us!

Thank you for this video!!!
¡Viva España! 🇪🇸⚔️🇪🇸
U forget el mahor also im fan of the by
Always love to see your posts -- so informative and interesting! Keep up the good work.
Thanks, will do!
Fernando is to Spain what Richard was to England. Not just a man but a full blown folk hero.
Would be amazing if we had more content about the Order of Christ!
AWESOME AWESOME VID. LOOKING FORWARD TO THE NEXT
More to come!
Chévere video caballero. I hope you also cover other lesser known cruzades like the Baltic ones and specially against the Hussites🧐
Thank you so, so much for the video clips full of history of a Christian nation.
Viva Cristo Rey. Christ The High Priest. Cristo / Christ The KING 👑 of kings and The LORD of lords. 🙏❤️💙

excluding our Blessed Lord, wouldn't King David be considered the greatest king? and then behind him perhaps Saint Luis or Fernando?
I think he's definitely in the running.
Is there evidence of King David?

It's all listed in the description box.
Lo facilmque que es hacer historia hoy día desde el extranjero mejor aquí hay muchos

The Mesquita is awesome and the old roman bridge. Cordoba is great.
it's a cathedral, not a mosque and it was built as a church (though smaller) before the islamic occupation of Spain.
I'm here because he's our patron saint in our Barangay.
Recently found out Saint Fernando was my 22nd Great Grandfather!
Si y La Reina Isabel Era mi prima por parte de mi otra prima🤣🤣🤣
