'''Abd Ar-Rahman III''', 891 - 961AD, [[Caliph]] of [[Cordoba]], was a famous ruler of the [[Umayyad]] dynasty of [[Spain]]. He ruled from 912 and proclaimed himself [[caliph]] in 929. Under him the [[Umayyad]] emirate reached the peak of its power, extending its boundaries in successful campaigns against the Fatimids in Northern Africa and the Christian kings of [[León]] and [[Kingdom_of_Navarre| Navarre]]. He made [[Islamic]] Spain a cultural center of the world and his capital [[Cordoba]] the largest city in [[Europe]].
