Best answers:
- Extended series of wars between Muslims and Spanish Christians
- Resulted in the rise of Spanish and Portuguese kingdoms
- Regaining of Catholic Spain
Why the others are incorrect:
- Spread of Islamic law in Spain — opposite of the Reconquista (that describes the earlier Muslim conquest).
- Muslim overthrow of Iberian Peninsula — describes the 8th-century Muslim conquest, not the Reconquista.
- Complete removal of Muslims from Spain — inaccurate: the Reconquista ended Muslim political rule, but large numbers of Muslims (and later Moriscos) remained for decades and were not all immediately removed.
