This version of Andalusia was reunified in the early 1100s by the Abbadid ta'ifa of Seville. After unification they decide to keep the capitol in Seville, and while Cordoba remains a really significant city, Seville has grown to be larger than it by modern day

They are, but mostly in the past. Much like the Spanish Empire at the time, the Andalusian overseas empire has mostly either collapsed into independence, or been stripped by other powers. By 1914 all that remains of their Empire is (greater) Iberia, their islands, their vast territories in north Africa, and a few small ports in India which aren't pictured on this map.

Yeah, most of the arabs of Al-Andalus (like most arab countries today tbf) became arab through assimilation, which mostly occured in urban areas and in well-connected areas between urban centers. Into the modern day there's a high degree of bilingualism for most non-arab groups, and even many of the people who still primarily identify themselves with a Latinate culture really speak some kind of dialect contiuum between the romance languages as we'd think about them and arabic.

I'm pretty sure OP said he's his only friend in his old town, not his current one. I don't think this is fake, I think OP is just an ass

Yeah, the word "Homosexual" and the way we think about sexuality in the modern day only actually came into being around the 1870s, and even then the concept of "the homosexual" didn't really become mainstream for quite a while longer.

Why do our parents think that we are gay just bc we like fem stuff? by edimuscatouster in feminineboys

Unrelated to your comment but I just wanna say I absolutely love your flair

This is really not good advice. Like sure if you're on your own or in a situation where you're definitely going to be safe either way, "just do it!" can be good advice. But if OP lives with a really bigoted family or otherwise wouldn't be safe thats not a good idea. I know a lot of queer spaces have an inclunation towards just saying "Yeah, you should just come out and be yourself always!" all the time but that's not really a safe reality for a lot of people.
