]]> During his reign, Philip II (1556-1598) encountered serious social problems within his dominions. In particular, the case of the Moors, i.e. Mudejars who had accepted their conversion to Christianity in order to remain on Spanish soil, is particularly relevant. For decades, numerous processes of confirmation of conversion and faith took place in order to account for the correct religious behaviour of the converted families. The historical process, marked by events such as the Rebellion of the Alpujarras or the War of the Alpujarras, finally led to the expulsion of the Moors from the Hispanic Monarchy. This order, issued by Philip III, was carried out in stages between 1609 and 1613.

]]> During his reign, Philip II (1556-1598) encountered serious social problems within his dominions. Of particular relevance was the case of the Moors, i.e. the Mudejars who had accepted their conversion to Christianity in order to remain on Spanish soil. An example of this can be seen in this document, which warns, from France, of the possibility of an uprising in the territories of the Monarchy. As a result of these events, numerous processes of confirmation of conversion and faith took place over the decades in order to account for the correct religious behaviour of the converted families. The historical process, marked by events such as the Rebellion of the Alpujarras or the War of the Alpujarras, finally led to the expulsion of the Moors from the Spanish Monarchy. This order, issued by Philip III, was carried out in stages between 1609 and 1613.

]]> The expulsion of the Moors from the Hispanic Monarchy was ordered by King Philip III and carried out in stages between 1609 and 1613. The first Moors to be expelled were those of the Kingdom of Valencia (the decree was made public on 22 September 1609), followed by those of Andalusia (10 January 1610), Extremadura and the two Castiles (10 July 1610), in the Crown of Castile, and those of the Crown of Aragon (29 May 1610). The last to be expelled were those from the Kingdom of Murcia, first those of Granada origin (8 October 1610), and later those from the Ricote valley and the rest of the old Moriscos (October 1613). In total, some 300,000 people were expelled, most of them from the kingdoms of Valencia and Aragon, which were the most affected, losing a third and a sixth of their population, respectively. As authors such as Antonio Domínguez Ortiz and Bernard Vincent have pointed out, the expulsion of the Moors was motivated by various causes and factors, including their presence as a separate social group after more than a century of their forced conversion to Christianity; their consideration as collaborators of the Ottoman Turkish empire and of the Barbary pirates who continually ravaged the entire Mediterranean coast, which led them to be considered a threat to the continuity of the Hispanic Monarchy and its interests; and the radicalisation of the thinking of many of the rulers of the Spanish monarchy, which led them to be considered as a threat to the continuity of the Spanish monarchy and its interests; the radicalisation of the thinking of many rulers after the failure to put an end to Protestantism in the Low Countries; or the increase in resentment of the Christian population towards the Moors due to the beginning of the 17th century of a period of recession, which in turn resulted from the decrease in the arrival of resources from America.
