A minor nitpick: the northwest of the Iberian peninsula, the Romanic-Swabian kingdom of Gallaecia, was never conquered by the Caliphate.

For some reason, content like this makes a periodic appearance every few months. A tutorial by IBM on how to better utilize command line tools is another.<p>Just one step from collections of interesting pictures. Here, all context is lost. History without context is rubbish.

Will the same map in a few years include the American empire? Afganistan, Iraq, (maybe) Iran...
