I was making a joke,it's not called the spanish reconquista,it's called the reconquista.
But yeah,our was faster and deadlier for them.
We have a a statue of a famous guy that killed alot of moors

>>67746234
It could be considered "offensive" because muslims are the villains, even if this is historically true.

if you don't believe me go to read some comments about the song "Crusader" from Saxon on youtube or just opinions about the movie "Kingdom of Heaven".

you need to make some positive muslims characters, otherwise it's offensive.

Excuse my Portuguese

Catalonians have certainly made movies and even TV series about it.

It's just that it doesn't cover the War of Succession. They only care about a very particular event, the conquest of Barcelona. For independentists, that particular event is the most important thing ever happened in History. They think since that defeat they have been a colony.

Jokes apart, it would be kinda cool if you had a movie about the Iberian kingdoms from ~1100 until ~1492. People focus a bit too much on the "we wuz empires n shiet" but rarely talk about the period before.

Also, the Castilian succession is more movie material than the Spanish one.

No,it's a joke that Porto fans tell the Benfica fans

Not really, not a single famous muslim city was in their side while Cordoba, Granada, Cádiz, Medina, Seville, Malaga and others were among the most populated on the planted during their time.

>>67746880
There is a guy, I can't remember his name, he was nicknamed The Galician by the muslims but he was in the portuguese side, although he was a muslim he trolled hard the Umayyad, maybe you know him because he was a very interesting character.

>>67748180
I found him, the english article sucks, though, the portuguese and spanish are more complete.

nope.we don't have reconquista fairy tales or stories,we got it done fast

>>67748326
>we got it done fast

What do you mean? Why didn't you attack the rest of muslims? Seville was right there.

>>67748415
there was territory claims that was agreed between portugal and castille.We could help you conquer it but not claim it

>>67747091
Kingdom of Heaven shows Muslims in a more positive light than the Crusaders though

Anyway, what happened is that Granada was tributray of the castilians and it was more profitable to milk them. Basically we decided to conquer Granada when it turned piss poor.

I would rather have a movie about based afonso de albuquerque

>He became known as "the Great", "the Terrible", "the Caesar of the East", "the Lion of the Seas", and "the Portuguese Mars".

>>67751035
True, but Duarte Pacheco Pereira sort of cleared the path a bit for him.

A Vasco da Gama, Duarte Pacheco Pereira and Afonso de Albuquerque trilogy would be perfect.

Fuck, scratch that. A full on Lusíadas mini series. Gods and monsters and everything.

S1: Odyssey
S2; Iliad
S3: Eneid
S4: Divine Comedy
S5: Lusíads

Fuck meme of Thrones, let's get Greek/Roman mythology and Christianity mix back.

Looks like an interesting character.

>>67751246
Our biggest mistake was to stop naming people Afonso and Pereira, desu.

>>67751279
I would say that was Spain's mistake too.
As soon as kings started being named Carlos and Felipe instead of Alfonso and Sancho things quickly started getting worse.

>>67751279
Isn't Pereira a surname? At least in Galicia it is.

>>67747091
>It could be considered "offensive" because muslims are the villains
are they villains by getting invaded and killed by christians?

>>67751418
>Alfonso
>Al fonso
Does that mean "The Fonz" in Arabic, I wonder? Is that why they always won?

>Felipes
Fucking cunts. The only thing they had been good at was folding towels.

>>67751491
It is. A very common one, even. I guess I meant having people in power with that name. Also they'd need 2 last names.
>Nuno Álvares Pereira
>Duarte Pacheco Pereira
Name of great generals, it seems. Afonso is the administrative multiplier.

>>67751505
???
in the case of Reconquista they are actually the invaders and the killers, and also the slave masters.

in the case of the crusades on the Holy Land, it was on the first place because the Seljuq Turks forbids the entry of pilgrims to Jerusalem and the other caliphate start to chimpout because they can't handle a christian state.

>>67751599
It's hard to find a bad king named Alfonso

It's shitty that only the Moor parts of our country get tourists, but at least everywhere else it's peaceful and free of drunkards.

Some Americans don't even know that Spain is part of Europe. They think Spain is Mexico.

The first was great.
The second was GOAT.
The third was an absolute disgrace.
The fourth started great, but went to shit eventually after João V.
