In episode 31, I explore the turbulent reigns of Hisham and al-Hakam I of Córdoba—two emirs who faced family conspiracies and uprisings that threatened the very survival of an independent Umayyad Emirate in al-Andalus. Moreover, we explore the early reign of Alfonso II of Asturias and how the Revolt of Saqunda unfolded.
