The Last Prince of Al-Andalus: Rise and Fall of the Córdoba Caliphate From a hunted fugitive to the architect of a Golden Age. ⚔️✨ In 750 AD, the Umayyad Dynasty—rulers of the Islamic world—was brutally annihilated by the Abbasids. Amidst the slaughter, one young prince, Abd al-Rahman I, escaped into the night. This is the epic true story of his 3,000-mile journey across deserts and continents to the shores of Al-Andalus (Islamic Spain). Against all odds, the man known as the "Falcon of the Quraysh" transformed from a prince without a kingdom into the founder of the Emirate of Córdoba, laying the foundation for a civilization that would outshine the rest of Europe for centuries. 🕘 WHAT’S IN THIS VIDEO?
