I am half Spanish and have spent quite a while looking for some stuff about the reconquista of Spain from the Moors. I have visted several of the 'Fronteras' but have heard nothing but hearsay and Rumour about what actually happened. I missed this period of history when I went to school here and know that what happened must have taken years of ruthless and Brilliant campaigning, but don't actually know the details of what happened. Does anyone else know?
Also, I have never heard of the Spanish "tercios" which someone else mentioned in a different topic, what was the big deal with them?
