Modern literature.

Have you heard of Don Quixote?

Spanish history and culture is so vast that it would be hard to put into words in under 1000 words
>The golden century of literature
>all the roman heritage
>guitars
>all the traditions that survived in the north during centuries or even thousands of years thanks to the mountain isolation
>Tebeos (spanish comics)
>art
>languages and dialects
>food

I like how you conveniently ignore the Ummayad and Abbasid rule of Spain while making a point to remember the North

arabs were based
>first eye doctors
>bring modern math to Europe (people were still using roman numerals)
>brings better calculus methods
>advanced architecture
>new food
>better crop methods
by the time the expulsion of the moors happened, they were so "castellinized" that they were often killed for being too progressive or tolerant when they went back to north africa
it was the greatest mixture of cultures to ever happen

>Arabs
*Berbers and Persians. Arabs a shit, I see you've been sold the myth of the Andalusian paradise as well

>myth
they've lived peacefully among christians, something that might never happen again in history

they enslaved hundreds of thousands if not millions of europeans, not sure i'd call it "peaceful".

>hundreds of thousands if not millions
holy shit you cant make this shit up

you know arabs were kicked out of spain in the 15th century right?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slavery_in_Spain

>During the Al-Andalus (also known as Muslim Spain or Islamic Iberia), the Moors controlled much of the peninsula. They imported white Christian slaves from the 8th century until the end of the Reconquista in the late 15th century.[citation needed] The slaves were exported from the Christian section of Spain, as well as Eastern Europe,sparking significant reaction from many in Christian Spain and many Christians still living in Muslim Spain. As the Muslims followed the same technique as Romans to capture slaves; seeking cities to ally with them. Soon after, Muslims were successful, taking Christian captives of 30,000 from Spain. In the eighth century slavery lasted longer due to “frequent cross-border skirmishes, interspersed between periods of major campaigns.”. By the tenth century, in the eastern Mediterranean Byzantine Christian’s were captured by Muslims. Many of the raids designed by Muslims were created for a fast captive of prisoners. Therefore, Muslims restricted the control in order to keep captives from fleeing. The Iberian peninsula served as a base for further exports of slaves into other Muslim regions in Northern Africa.[11]

Cowboys

interesting
so they were like the romans

basically your "peaceful" arabs were kidnapping your women and forcing them into sex slavery for literally 1000 years until they got colonized by the french

off topic, but do you think it's coincidental you see the exact same things happening on the continent and england again now that arabs are back in europe

i dont know but if europe and north africa are still safer than USA you can't really strawman your way into making me think arabs are any worse than the average american
we shouldnt be worried about arabs, we should be worried about amerishots and niggers

>new food
What?

oranges weren't in spain until the arabs brought them
also olives or escabeche weren't commonly eaten before

this display of typical iberian intelligence is a perfect example of why the spanish per capita GDP is less than half of that of the US, inclusive of "shots" and nogs

would rather be safe and humble than rich and dead
>Spain spends the same percentage of GDP per capita than USA in public healthcare
>Spanish healthcare rated one of the best in the world, USA healthcare one of the most expensives and controlled by monopolies

now we're strawmanning for real

enjoy your refugees juan

>switch
>mario
>zelda
*jap culture

>implying refugees want to stay in a shitty country like Spain
