- Spain was invaded in 711 CE by predominantly Berber North Africans, marking the beginning of a long conflict between Christian kingdoms and Muslim rulers that continued until the latter's expulsion around 1492 CE.
- Many Muslims expelled from Spain had Iberian ancestry and had converted to Islam, while some Christian converts to Islam returned after being expelled by 1609 CE.
- A study of present-day Alpujarrans indicates a strong presence of HLA haplotypes linked to Northern Spain and the European Atlantic region, suggesting successful repopulation and continuity of the Iberian population.
