History
The region of present-day Spain was inhabited by many different peoples in ancient times. It came under Roman rule around 200 BC with the name Hispania. In the 6th century, centuries after the fall of the Roman Empire, the region was invaded by Germanic peoples such as the Vandals and Visigoths. Islamic peoples began dominating the region in the 8th century, leaving only a handful of small Christian realms in the north. This led to many wars of Christians reconquering the Muslim states, collectively known as the Reconquista, which was completed by the late 15th century with a unified Christian Spain. Spain became the world's first global empire and one of the most powerful countries in the world, establishing colonies in most of the Americas, which became the Spanish America today, and in the Philippines in Asia.
