It was Philip II who kicked out the Muslims and Jews, Ferdinand & Isabella conquered Granada.
And in fact the forced expulsion was a major factor in the economic decline of Spain, probably the most significant, which was the cause of its collapse as a power internationally.
Oh, and I'm not replying to you to get into an argumwnt with a neo-nazi, but to put the record straight just in case somebody comes alon who is stupid enough to listen to your racist bile.
Even the Jews know that Ferdinand & Isabella kicked them out of Spain in 1492. https://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jso...lsion.html
Phillip II wasn't born until 1527.
"Ferdinand and Isabella completed the Reconquista with a war against the Emirate of Granada that started in 1482 and ended with Granada's surrender on January 2, 1492. The Moors in Castile previously numbered "half a million within the realm." By 1492 some 100,000 had died or been enslaved, 200,000 had emigrated, and 200,000 remained in Castile. Many of the Muslim elite, including Granada's former Emir Muhammad XII, who had been given the area of the Alpujarras mountains as a principality, found life under Christian rule intolerable and emigrated to Tlemcen in North Africa.[20]"
