One of them was conquered by Arab Muslim armies from North Africa, a conquest that was part of the expansion of the Umayyad Caliphate (years 711 and 718). This conquest made differentiate the Spanish language from the other Romance languages, such as French or Italian, due to the abundance of elements of Arab origin that influenced it. The music was also influenced by the Muslim presence. New instruments and melodies appeared that later gave way to guitar or flamenco, among others. The structure of traditional Spanish music has, for this reason, many elements in common with that of North Africa.
