It's common to read in textbooks about the well-known "splendour period" in Muslim Spain. It's true cities increased their population as a result of the Muslim arrival. Arabs created laws, public institutions..To sum up, I'd say a new model of society was established. However, I don't think three main religions (Christians, muslims, jews) lived peacefully. There was even a clear division between Muslims: arabs were the powerful statment and North África muslims didn't have any power in goverment functions. Christians (mozárabes) lived in suburbs and paid high taxes because of their religion.

No different from British India or any other imperial holding.

If you're judging "peace" based on modern standards, you've already failed at interpreting history.

By contemporary standards, Andalusia was pretty peaceful for long stretches of time. Until the Berbers chimped out, you could be reasonably secure as a Jew or Christian to know that you wouldn't be pogrammed for most of the Cordoba era and the Taifa periods. This is why Jews actually did pretty well in Spain, all things considered, and experienced a "Jewish Golden Age," in parallel the Andalusian "Islamic Golden Age," in terms of medicine, philosophy, etc.

Don't look at us. The same people who spread black legend tier propaganda about European colonization put Muslim occupied Iberia on a silver platter.

I don't deny there were not struggles between religions during some periods of Al-Ándalus era. Nevertheless, I don't agree about this peace was related to Muslim tolerance. In fact, around 50 christians were killed during Abderramán II emirate for criticising arabic laws.
These laws discriminated Christians and jews in many daily life issues or judicial processes. Death sentences were also usual.
>Peace periods in Al- Ándalus between religions were real, just like in kingdoms where Muslims didn't rule.
>Christians and jews were discriminated. No equality existed between cultures.

It was pretty common.That is why there was a huge influx of inmigrants from the south to the north

It was multicultural, it did see economic growth, but if you weren't Muslim you would pay the Jizya and you would be discriminated against.

If the Muslims were WASPS and those they ruled over Indians, liberals would shit themselves in rage and would never stop talking about the injustice, even though this kind of nepotism was almost a necessity when rebellions, massacres, torture, cruelty, religious fanaticism and assassination was the norm the world over.
