Muslims were not expelled in 1502. They were expelled in 17th century because they were thought to help the Muslim pirates from N Africa.
It is to be noted that no other European country had a significant non-Christian population. They have noticeable other-Christian population, ... which were expelled/forced to convert/treated as 2nd class citizens.
