[@FaithfulOfBrigantia]

Alt-history usually envisions Iberia as if the Reconquista failed or is still incomplete. It would actually be a lot more likely that the the Umayyad conquest never succeeded in the first place. And the Visigothic Kingdom survived only to eventually colapse into petty kingdoms, probably along Roman administrative borders, due to feudal laws. The Reconquista was an enormous period of hundreds of battles and political moves. If any of these went the other way around, it would probably speed up or slow down the process, but at the end the result would be the same. Maps mislead viewers into believing the Umayyads had a massive advantage in the beginning and it was miraculous that the tiny Asturias survived, in reality all that land "controlled" by the Umayyads was Latin and Christian, most of rural Iberians probably never even seen a "moor" in their lifetimes. This meant that the Islamic part of Spain had very little control or popular support, it is no wonder that the only periods where the Moors were not on the defensive and actually pushed back were during the Almoravid and Almohad caliphates, when they could draw manpower and resources from Morocco as well. While Asturians could literally take over large parts of land without fighting a single battle, and were received as saviours. On the other hand, the Islamic conquest hinged on a single, very lucky and decisive battle where the Visigothic king died and his realm was barely held together by him after completely colapsed. If the Visigothic nobility didn't betray Roderick, if Roderick lost but didn't die, if someone stepped up to succeed Roderick quick enough or if the Umayyads retreated to regroup instead of pushing their advantage, it would be very likely that the Muslim Invasion of Iberia would be no different from the Muslim Invasion of Francia.

[@resentfuldragon]

Those facts pretty much show who the oppressive leaders were. The muslims, especially the ummayyads, generally left non-muslims alone to believe and practice as they wished. From the first caliphate to the most recent one (ottomans), they generally didn’t force conversion. Meanwhile the western christians were quite brutal to fellow christians, let alone any other religious groups until more recently. The eastern christians like the byzantines were more chill though, they were used to ruling multicultural areas.

[@FaithfulOfBrigantia]

the Aghlabids initially conquered Sicily for Islam, the Fatimids would take over after them, and would in turn appoint the Kalbids to rule Sicily as an increasingly independent emirate fun fact about the Islamic conquests of Sicily: they were the ones to initially introduce lemons to the island, which would become a staple crop of the island, and theft of said lemons would eventually lead to the need for protection against these thefts, directly leading to the Sicilian mafia
