The House of Umayyad did not lose power everywhere, however, and one of the places it held onto was Spain, ruling from the city of Cordoba as late as the 13th century and holding to Granada as late as the 15th century, before finally being defeated by the ascendant House of Trastámara. The Spanish Umayyad retired from organized politics, foreswearing temporal power in favor of magical research. They remained in Spain, enduring Capet rulers, Hapsburg rulers, and others, intermarriage making them visually indistinguishable from the Spanish. When the New World was opened up, many of them emigrated, especially to South America and southern North America. Today, they are found throughout the US, quietly conducting their research as they have done for so many centuries. | The House of Umayyad did not lose power everywhere, however, and one of the places it held onto was Spain, ruling from the city of Cordoba as late as the 13th century and holding to Granada as late as the 15th century, before finally being defeated by the ascendant House of Trastámara.
