They were comfortable in the area because its climate was much like that of their home. But eventually, as has happened in many regions of Spain, the Arabs came in and called the area home. They began the real population of the region. When the Moors were expelled, the area fell with their leaving. The population suffered a severe drop and the economic situation became dire. But it did eventually make a comeback. Those still in the region started producing and exporting raisins to England.
