Neither Spain nor Europe had seen in centuries an army as formidable as the one that left Seville on April 11, 1491. There were more than 50,000 men of war. Splendidly armed and mounted nobles, tough knights from the frontier accustomed to war against the Moors, skilled crossbowmen, agile archers, determined halberdiers and pikemen, daring artillerymen and even seasoned arquebusiers and musketeers... Some are veteran soldiers, others are noblemen and simple countrymen enlisted in the municipal militias of countless cities and towns. Among their ranks are Castilians, Galicians, Leonese, Asturians, Aragonese... they have gathered to complete a long-cherished enterprise: to take the capital of the last Muslim kingdom of the Iberian Peninsula: Granada.
