Impact of the Crusades

Question 4 • LHS World History

What was the Reconquista?

Answer
A
the attack on pagans in the Baltic region
B
the defeat of Constantinople by the merchants of Venice
C
the effort by Crusaders to free Jerusalem from Muslim rule
D
the expulsion of Muslims and Jewish people from Spain

Explanation

The Reconquista was the centuries-long campaign by Christian kingdoms to reclaim the Iberian Peninsula from Muslim rule. It ended with the conquest of Granada in 1492; the expulsion of Jewish people and later Muslims from Spain followed in that period. So D is the closest choice, though it describes expulsions rather than the Reconquista itself.
