Castile, in particular, began to pushback the demoralized Arabs and, in 1085, reconquered Toledo from them. Aragon also widened its bounds by incorporating Barcelona and conqueringthe territory watered by the Ebro. By 1250, the long war of theChristians against the Mohammedans, which fills the mediæval annals ofSpain, had been so successfully prosecuted that Castile extended to thesouth coast and included the great towns of Cordova and Seville. Thekingdom of Portugal was already as large as it ...is to-day.
[Sidenote: Granada and Castile. ] The Moors, as the Spanish Mohammedans were called, maintained themselvesfor two centuries more in the mountainous kingdom of Granada, in thesouthern part of the peninsula. During this period, Castile, which wasthe largest of the Spanish kingdoms and embraced all the central part ofthe peninsula, was too much occupied by internal feuds and strugglesover the crown to wage successful war against the Moorish kingdom to thesouth.
[Sidenote: Marriage of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon.
