The "Catholic Monarchs" (1469 - 1504) (19 окт 1469 г. – 26 ноя 1504 г.)
Описание:
1469 - 1504 AD: The "Catholic Monarchs" refer to Isabella I of Castile (1451-1504) and Ferdinand II of Aragon (1479-1516), whose marriage marked the beginning of the territorial formation of Spain. Isabella claimed the Castilian throne in 1474, sparking a war of succession that ended in 1479, the same year Ferdinand inherited the Aragonese throne. Their union united the crowns of Castile and Aragon under the Trastámara dynasty, creating a strong, centralized monarchy. They conquered the Nasrid kingdom of Granada, the kingdom of Navarre, the Canary Islands, and parts of North Africa, uniting most of present-day Spain under one crown while maintaining separate sovereignties. They established a common foreign policy through strategic marriages that led to Habsburg hegemony in Europe. The conquest of the Americas, beginning in 1492, launched the Spanish Empire and profoundly changed world history.Добавлено на ленту времени:
