Reading your post it all hangs together. What I find interesting when we talk about the era is the way that 700 years of history is spoken of as a unit. My bet is that you will have to think a while before you tell me what year or years you are talking about in your post or even google it to see if it’s 1300 or 900 or 1100 or . . .
My post was as non-specific in dates as yours. Mine was about Islamic tactics in consolodating rule. Jews were given prestigious positions among Dhimmi in the Omayyid Dynasty, which ended in 1039. The Golden Age ended with the Granada Massacre of 1066. The Almoravides were harsh and the Almohades (al-Muwahhidun) were fundamentalists who persecuted Christians and Jews.
