🔥¡La HISTORIA del Estrecho de Ormuz Español! Persas y Cristianos: ¿Un PASADO en Común🇪🇸 en Persia?

💣Did you know that the Strait of Hormuz belonged to the Spanish Empire? This is the documented history of the alliance between the Christians and the Persians... between Philip II, Philip III, and Philip IV with the Shahs of Persia. Thanks to the Iberian Union (1580-1622), this territory came under the control of Spain and Portugal until the conquest by Abbas I the Great, with the support of England and the Dutch Republic. A lesson by Javier Rubio. ⚔️The book is now AVAILABLE on Amazon 👉🏻 https://amzn.to/40XhMIY 📚My book "The Footprint of Spain in Flanders" is now ON SALE 👉🏻 https://www.casadellibro.com/libro-la... 🔥"The Strait of Hormuz was conquered by Afonso de Albuquerque in 1515 and became part of the Hispanic Monarchy with the union between Portugal and Spain under Philip II," says Javier Rubio (director of Trincheras).

Did you know that Flanders was only one of the Seventeen Provinces? That the Duke of Alba refused to come to these lands and considered his stay a “trap of exile” orchestrated by his enemies at the court of Madrid? That the causes of the Eighty Years' War go beyond a religious civil conflict between Catholics and Protestants? 👏🏻 Javier Rubio Monte is the director of Hidden Trenches. He currently lives in Brussels researching the reigns of Charles V and Philip II.

Spain's Footprint in the Persian Gulf - Iran - 📗 My book "Spain's Footprint in Flanders" 👉🏻 https://amzn.to/40XhMIY The Spanish Footprint in Flanders invites us to rediscover one of the most forgotten—yet most decisive—epics in the history of Spain and Europe: the presence of the Spanish Monarchy in the former Low Countries. Javier Rubio meticulously reconstructs, with documentary rigor and narrative skill, the political, cultural, religious, and military role played by the Spanish in a land where much of the destiny of modern Europe was forged. IN THE FIELDS OF FLANDERS, SPAIN NOT ONLY FOUGHT: IT LEFT A PROFOUND MARK OF FAITH, ART, AND CIVILIZATION. Through previously unpublished letters, diplomatic accounts, and chronicles of the period, the author rescues the human dimension of historical figures such as Philip II, the Duke of Alba, and William of Orange, freeing them from the prejudices inherited from centuries of propaganda and the Black Legend. The work illuminates the complex web of interests that linked—and pitted against each other—Brussels, Madrid, Rome, and Vienna, as well as the political and cultural work carried out by Spain in a territory that still bears that imprint in its architecture, art, language, and historical memory. 🕛 VIDEO TIMELINE 🕛 00:00-01:14 What will you see in this video? 01:14-01:36 Buy the book NOW AVAILABLE! 👉🏻 https://amzn.to/40XhMIY 01:36-05:00 The importance of the SEAS for the Portuguese and Spanish Empires 05:00-08:28 The threat of the Ottoman Empire and the alliance between Christians and Persians 08:28-12:00 The conquest of Hormuz by the Crown of Portugal 12:00-17:30 How did the Strait of Hormuz come under the control of the Spanish Monarchy? 17:30-20:00 What happened during the 42 years of its possession?
