LA HISTORIA COMPLETA DEL IMPERIO ESPAÑOL: DE POTENCIA MUNDIAL AL COLAPSO FINAL | Documentales

The history of the Spanish Empire is one of the most impressive ever experienced by a civilization. For centuries, Spain dominated territories in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia, building the first truly global empire, known as the empire on which the sun never set. But how did a power that controlled most of the world's silver, defeated great civilizations like the Aztecs and Incas, and ruled millions of people end up losing virtually everything? In this documentary, you will discover the entire history of the Spanish Empire, from the union of Castile and Aragon, the Reconquista, and Christopher Columbus's voyage, through the reigns of Charles V and Philip II, the Spanish Armada, the religious wars, the Inquisition, the expansion into the Americas and the Philippines, the Bourbon Reforms, the Napoleonic invasion, the Latin American wars of independence, and the defeat against the United States in 1898. 00:00 Introduction: How did the Spanish Empire fall? 00:01 The Catholic Monarchs: The Birth of Spain 02:40 The Reconquista and the Fall of Granada 05:20 The Expulsion of the Jews from Spain 07:30 Christopher Columbus and the Discovery of America 10:00 How the Spanish Empire Was Born 12:40 Charles V and the Expansion of the Spanish Empire 15:40 Hernán Cortés and the Conquest of the Aztec Empire 18:10 Francisco Pizarro and the Conquest of the Inca Empire 20:40 Philip II and the Spanish Golden Age 23:20 The Spanish Armada Against England 26:00 Why Did Spain's Decline Begin? 28:40 The Thirty Years' War 31:10 The Spanish Inquisition and the Black Legend 33:50 The Bourbon Reforms and the Crisis of the Empire 36:20 Napoleon Invades Spain and Changes History 38:00 Independence of Latin America 39:10 The Spanish-American War: Spain Loses Cuba and the Philippines 40:00 Why Did the Spanish Empire Collapse? #documentaries #ancienthistory #eternalvestiges 📌 If you liked this video, also check out: ▸    / @vestigioseternos
