Answer:

Muslim invaders from spain

Explanation:

The Battle of Tours (10 October 732), also called the Battle of Poitiers and, by Arab sources, the Battle of the Highway of the Martyrs, was an important victory of the Frankish forces under Charles Martel over the raiding parties of the Muslim led by Abdul Rahman Al Ghafiqi, Governor-General of al-Andalus. It was fought in an area between the cities of Poitiers and Tours, in Aquitaine in west-central France, near the village of Moussais-la-Bataille, about 20 kilometres (12 mi) northeast of Poitiers.

The Franks led by charles Mattel were victorious. Abdul Rahman Al Ghafiqi was killed, and Charles subsequently extended his authority in the south. Notably, the Frankish troops won the battle without cavalry.

The battle helped shape the foundations of the Carolingian Empire and Frankish domination of western Europe for the next century. Most historians agree that "the establishment of Frankish power in western Europe shaped the continent's destiny and the Battle of Tours confirmed that power.
