The Spanish empire originated with the marriage of Isabella of Castile and Ferdinand of Aragon in 1469, uniting Spain. Their daughter married into the powerful Hapsburg family of Europe, beginning Hapsburg rule over Spain from the 16th-17th century. During this period, Spain became the most powerful nation in Europe through its vast overseas colonies supplying wealth and establishing Catholic dominance. However, wars and economic troubles weakened Spain, leading to the Bourbon succession after the War of Spanish Succession in the early 1700s.

The spanish empire
The Spanish Empire was one of the largest empires in world history. At its peak during the 16th century under the Habsburgs, Spain controlled vast territories in Europe and the Americas. However, the empire declined over subsequent centuries due to costly wars and Spain's loss of European dominance. By the early 19th century, most of Spain's American colonies had gained independence following the Napoleonic occupation of Spain.

1) In the late 15th century, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile unified Spain through marriage, establishing rule as the "Catholic Monarchs."
2) Under their rule, Spain reconquered territory from the Moors, expelled Jews and Muslims, and financed Christopher Columbus' voyage, establishing Spain as the first global empire.
3) Spanish conquistadors then conquered the Aztec, Inca, and Maya civilizations in the Americas, claiming large territories and importing diseases that devastated indigenous populations. The influx of silver from the Americas funded Spain's powerful military.
The spanish empire
The Spanish Empire was created in 1492 with the unification of Castile and Aragon.

As the Habsburgs practiced inbreeding to maintain their lineage, it led to physical deformities and their eventual extinction due to a lack of heirs. The Spanish Empire explored, conquered, and colonized much of the Americas through conquistadors and administration by the Spanish monarchy.
Philip ii

The war lasted from 1702-1714 and devastated Spain, especially Catalonia. Felipe V emerged victorious and was confirmed as King of Spain by the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713.
Modern spain
Modern Spain saw many political and social changes in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The Industrial Revolution led to increased standards of living but also greater inequality.

The Spanish Empire was a vast overseas empire established during the 16th century when Spain conquered vast areas of North and South America, overrunning the Aztec and Incan empires. Spain built upon its naval strengths and established colonies in the Americas and territories in Europe, Africa, Asia, and Oceania. Though Spain lost its European possessions after the War of Spanish Succession in 1713, it retained a vast overseas empire through the 18th century aided by military victories over Britain. The empire declined in the 17th century during the rule of the Spanish Habsburgs due to costly wars and bankruptcy, though it remained a powerful global force.
The spanish empire
The Spanish kingdom was created in 1492 and began its empire through Columbus' voyage to the New World. For the next three centuries, Spain was the most powerful colonial power, though wars with other European nations led to economic decline by the 17th century. A civil war in 1936 resulted in a nationalist dictatorship under Francisco Franco until 1975, after which Spain transitioned to a constitutional monarchy.

The Spanish Empire dominated oceans and battlefields in the 16th century as one of the first global empires, bringing Christianity throughout its expansion, before experiencing a cultural golden age and eventual decline under the Habsburgs in the 16th-17th centuries.
Spain after 1492
During the late 15th and early 16th centuries, Ferdinand and Isabella unified Spain and expanded its territories through conquests. Their funding of Columbus's expedition led to the discovery of America, beginning the Spanish Empire. Charles I expanded the empire further, though faced problems from revolts. Philip II made the empire even larger but costly wars impoverished Spain. The Spanish Golden Age between 1560-1680 was a high period for arts and culture. By the 17th century, weak rulers and revolts diminished Spain's power, leading to a succession dispute and war in the early 18th century.
The Modern Age in Spain (I)
During the 15th and 16th centuries in Spain:
- Ferdinand and Isabella unified the country and imposed Catholicism, establishing the Spanish Inquisition.
- Their support of Columbus led to the discovery of America in 1492, bringing gold and silver back to Spain.
- Under King Charles I and King Philip II, Spain built a vast overseas empire through further exploration and conquest, most notably defeating the Moors in Granada. However, the costs of maintaining this empire began to economically drain Spain.
Early modern spain
1. Fernando and Isabel united their kingdoms through marriage, creating a powerful Spain. They established the Spanish Inquisition and expelled Jews in 1492.
2. Explorers like Columbus and Magellan expanded Spain's empire, leading to the conquest of the Aztecs and Incas. This introduced new goods, diseases, and slavery to the Americas.
3. The Hapsburg and Bourbon dynasties ruled Spain over subsequent centuries. The Bourbons centralized power and modernized Spain under the influence of the Enlightenment.

Theme 3- spain and portugal
The document provides an overview of the history of the Portuguese and Spanish Empires from their origins to their decline. It discusses how Portugal rose to become a global power during the Age of Discovery in the 15th and 16th centuries as they explored the coasts of Africa, Asia, and Brazil. Spain likewise grew powerful under the Habsburg dynasty in the 16th century, controlling territories in Europe and colonies in the Americas, though both empires began declining by the 17th century as they lost territories to other European powers like Britain and the Netherlands.
The Spanish Empire
The Romans conquered the Iberian Peninsula beginning in 218 BC, dividing it into Hispania Ulterior and Hispania Citerior. From the 5th to 8th centuries, Germanic tribes invaded while Muslims conquered from the 8th to 15th centuries. The Reconquista by Christian forces began in 722 AD. The Hapsburgs ruled Spain in its Golden Age during the 16th-17th centuries, expanding its global empire through conquistadors like Hernan Cortes, who led the conquest of the Aztec Empire in Mexico. However, costly wars bankrupted Spain, leading to its decline as an independent Catalonia, Naples, and Portugal revolted in the 1640s.
Absolutism
- Wars of the 16th century pitted Protestants against Catholics across Europe from 1560 to 1650. Monarchs sought stability through absolutism and the divine right of kings.
- In France, Calvinism and Catholicism had become militant religions fighting for converts, fueling the French Wars of Religion from 1560-1589. The Edict of Nantes in 1598 granted Huguenots religious freedom.
- King Philip II of Spain strongly supported militant Catholicism and fought to prevent the spread of Protestantism, battling the English and Dutch. However, Spain's costly wars bankrupted the nation, and real power shifted to England under Queen Elizabeth I.

A.为什么留学生需要操作留信认证?
留信认证全称全国留学生信息服务网认证,隶属于北京中科院。①留信认证门槛条件更低,费用更美丽,并且包过,完单周期短,效率高②留信认证虽然不能去国企,但是一般的公司都没有问题,因为国内很多公司连基本的留学生学历认证都不了解。这对于留学生来说,这就比自己光拿一个证书更有说服力,因为留学学历可以在留信网站上进行查询!
B.为什么我们提供的毕业证成绩单具有使用价值？
查询留服认证是国内鉴别留学生海外学历的唯一途径但认证只是个体行为不是所有留学生都操作所以没有办理认证的留学生的学历在国内也是查询不到的他们也仅仅只有一张文凭。所以这时候我们提供的和学校颁发的一模一样的毕业证成绩单就有了使用价值。乌龟和王八贼头贼脑的倒也逗人喜爱日上三竿时山娃总爱窜进自家瓜棚里跟小伙伴们坐着聊天聊着聊着便忍不住往瓜田里逡巡一番抱起一只硕大的西瓜用石刀劈开抑或用拳头砸开每人抱起一大块就啃啃得满嘴满脸猴屁股般的红艳大家一个劲地指着对方吃吃地笑瓜裂得古怪奇形怪状却丝毫不影响瓜味甜丝丝的满嘴生津遍地都是瓜横七竖八的活像掷满了一地的大石块摘走二三只爷爷是断然发现不了的即便发现爷爷也不恼反而教山娃辨认孰熟孰嫩孰甜孰淡水
