There have been Arabs in Spain (Arabic: عرب إسبانيا; Spanish: Árabes en España) since the early 8th century when the Umayyad conquest of the Iberian Peninsula created the state of Al-Andalus. In modern times there are expatriates from a range of Arab countries, particularly Morocco, Algeria, Lebanon, Syria, the Palestinian Territories, and Iraq; and also small groups from Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Jordan and Sudan.
