Moriscos were Spanish [[Moslems]] who were allowed to remain in Spain after the [[Spanish Inquisition]], under the pretense that they had converted to Christianity.  In fact they had not converted, and their descendants revolted against the Spanish King [[Philip II]].  He defeated them in 1567-70 and moved them to the interior of Spain, and [[Philip III]] expelled them in 1609.
