At no time did the Moors control all of the Iberian Peninsula on which modern Spain is located. The Moors invaded the peninsula in 710 AD and the last Moorish stronghold surrendered in 1492 AD, so there were Moors in power in some part of the peninsula for 782 years. They never controlled Spain, as such, because it didn't come into being until 23 years after the Moors were physically evicted from the peninsula.

Spain did not exist as a single country until 1516 when the major kingdoms of Castile, Leon, Aragon and Navarre were united under one monarch. Carlos I became the ruler of all of them. He was, at the same time, Carlos (Charles) V, Holy Roman Emperor.
