What happened to the Andalusian peoples and cultures after the re-conquest or Reconquisita of Southern Europe?

What will be an ideal response?


• At the end of the 1400s a widespread diffusion (diaspora) or forced migration of Andalusian peoples and cultures spread out in three directions: "southward throughout North Africa, westward to the Americas, and eastward throughout the Mediterranean and eastern Arab world. . . . The art musics of Andalusian cultural centers [of southern Europe--see above] . . . were transplanted to the new coastal urban centers of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, and to a lesser extent Libya, where they developed further along the regional lines already established in the North African seaside cities of the Maghreb. The classical Andalusian musical traditions of the Maghreb, while related to those of Egypt and the Levant are distinct in repertoire and instrumentation and deserving of their own musical study . . ."
