Could the Ottoman Empire had had enough influence in the Iberian peninsula to stall La Reconquista during any period of their existence.
I know that the Ottomans had a treaty with the Aceh Sultanate (if I'm not mistaken with the name/time period, but I know it was on the same island) for military assistance if necessary, even if only nominal or even an informal pact. Could they have done the same for Granada/Córdoba or did they in OTL? If so, when? Could that have stalled the Spanish advance south permanently or at least enough so that the identity of Granada was preserved until today? What effect that could have had on the colonization?
Thank you in advance.
