Nasrid dynasty

The Nasrid dynasty or Nazari () was the last Muslim dynasty in Spain, founded by Muhammed I ibn Nasr. 20 different Kings ruled Granada from 1238 to January 2, 1492, when Sultan Boabdil surrendered to the Christian Spanish kingdom. The Nasrids constructed the Alhambra palaces. The Nasrid dynasty rose to power after the defeat of the Almohad dynasty in 1212 at the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa.
