The history of Murcia is divided into five periods in which it was an independent state: from 1011 to 1014 , 1045 , from 1065 to 1078 , from 1147 to 1178 and, finally, from 1228 to 1266 , when it was absorbed by Castile .
History
Ground
The territory of the future Murcia was conquered by the Arabs in 713 . The city itself was founded in 825 by Abd ar-Rahman II , and was originally called Medinet Murcia . With the help of the Segura River , an extensive irrigation system was created around the city. Al-Idrisi , who visited Murcia in the 12th century , described it as a densely populated and well-fortified city.
Proclamation of Independence
Taifa Murcia stood out from the declining Cordoba Caliphate in 1011 .
In 1014-1038 , Murcia was ruled by the typhoons of Almeria , and in 1038-1065 the typhoons of Valencia .
In 1065 - 1078 , Murcia was independent.
In 1078, Murcia was captured by the typhus of Seville , and was part of it until 1091 , when, together with the rest of the territory of Seville, it was annexed to the Almoravid state .
In 1145 - 1147 , Valencia was again part of the typhus .
In 1172 - 1228 , Murcia belonged to the state of Almohad .
Murcia after the departure of Almohad
After the Almohad left for Africa, the Muslim possessions in Spain again disintegrated, and in 1228 Murcia became independent.
At first, Murcia was the most powerful fragment of the state of Almohad, and under Yusuf ibn Hood she conquered almost all of Muslim Spain. But Ibn Hood soon suffered a series of defeats from Christian troops, and was later killed in a conspiracy. Having seized power, Ibn Mardenish lost a significant part of the conquests of his predecessor, and in 1241 he was expelled by the son of ibn Hud Muhammad . The latter in 1243 was forced to submit to Castile . Murcia was a vassal until 1266 , when it was abolished by Castile [1] .
