During the Middle Ages there were two important invasions in Hispania. First the Visigoths and then the Muslims.
The Visigoths
At first, the Visigoths helped the Romans fight other Germanic tribes. Then, aſter the fall of the Roman Empire, the Visigoths established a new kingdom with its capital city in Toledo. It was called the Kingdom of Toledo. It was established in 507 A.D.
Religion
In 589 A.D., King Recaredo converted to Catholicism. This was an important event in Spanish history. It united the Visigothic kingdom under one religion. Now the Visigoth nobles and Hispano-Roman nobles had the same religion.
Culture
The Visigoths learned to speak Latin and they adopted Roman laws. There were some important cultural developments. Isidoro de Sevilla was a bishop and an important Visigoth thinker. He was the first Christian to write an encyclopedia.

DeleteI dont stand Who were the visigoths :(
DeleteVanessa the Visigoths were a group of people that lived in the north of Europe and when the Roman empire fell, they started invading other places like Hispania. They had a different religion but one of their leaders finally embraced christianity, so living together was possible.
