the Moors was called, for centuries, ''Al Ándalus'' or alternatively ''Spania'', although the process of Reconquest ended up eliminating these names.The unification of the various kingdoms of that geographical region led to a correspondence between that region and a single state during the brief period of union of Spain and Portugal, which ended in 1640.Since then, Spain has been explicitly used to refer to the current country of that name, while ''Iberia'' is preferred to encompass Iberia and Portugal.This article will discuss the territorial organization of Spain throughout history,

distinguishing between Iberians in the Levant and south of the peninsula, Celts in the plateau and Vascones and Cantabri in the north.", "The limits between one area and another are a matter of
