1 00:00:00,430 --> 00:00:25,109 Well, this is the last point of this unit, is Spain in the 17th century, we are going to divide this point in two videos, so we are going to start with the first two kings that they are going to rule in Spain in the 17th century, and in the next one, in the next video, we will see the last king and the war that is going to start after his death, okay? 2 00:00:25,109 --> 00:00:31,109 here's that so let's start with Spain in the 17th century okay so we are going to 3 00:00:31,109 --> 00:00:35,130 study this Spanish monarchy remember we are not talking about the Spain 4 00:00:35,130 --> 00:00:41,969 exactly we are talking about the Spanish monarchy the Hispanic monarchy to be 5 00:00:41,969 --> 00:00:47,490 accurate it means la monarchy hispanica okay so what we are going to see is the 6 00:00:47,490 --> 00:00:52,950 main characteristics of this Spanish monarchy during the 17th century and 7 00:00:52,950 --> 00:00:57,890 and then we will see the different reigns, 8 00:00:57,890 --> 00:00:59,670 the different kings, okay? 9 00:00:59,670 --> 00:01:01,850 So let's start that we are going to have three kings, 10 00:01:01,850 --> 00:01:04,489 Felipe III, Felipe IV, and Carlos II, 11 00:01:04,489 --> 00:01:06,269 and these three kings are going to belong 12 00:01:06,269 --> 00:01:09,290 to the Austrian Habsburg dynasty, okay? 13 00:01:09,290 --> 00:01:11,769 So they are going to be part, or they are kings, 14 00:01:11,769 --> 00:01:14,629 that they are related with the Habsburg dynasty, okay? 15 00:01:14,629 --> 00:01:18,489 And they are the Habsburgs, the kings of this dynasty, 16 00:01:18,489 --> 00:01:20,230 that they are going to rule in Spain, 17 00:01:20,230 --> 00:01:28,010 in Castilla y Lagoa in America etc all those territories during the 17th century okay so here 18 00:01:28,010 --> 00:01:35,829 we have Felipe III, Felipe IV, Carlos II okay he is going to have a lot of different problems 19 00:01:35,829 --> 00:01:42,450 physical problems ecological problems he is the result of endogamy endogamy means that they are 20 00:01:42,450 --> 00:01:50,209 going to get married okay with people from their families like sisters cousins etc so this 21 00:01:50,209 --> 00:01:56,510 endogamy inside the family is going to lead to this to this person to this 22 00:01:56,510 --> 00:02:07,670 person with this psychological or psychological and physical problems so 23 00:02:07,670 --> 00:02:13,449 let's see the 17th century we have seen it was a period of crisis of economic 24 00:02:13,449 --> 00:02:17,449 crisis remember we are going to have economic crisis and demographic crisis 25 00:02:17,449 --> 00:02:24,530 okay apart from that Spain is going to start losing his power okay his 26 00:02:24,530 --> 00:02:29,270 political importance in Europe okay the Thirty Years War we have seen it okay 27 00:02:29,270 --> 00:02:33,650 this Thirty Years War is going to be crucial you know in order to understand 28 00:02:33,650 --> 00:02:40,069 why in the second half in the second half of the 17th century Spain is going 29 00:02:40,069 --> 00:02:45,050 to decline Spain is going to lose power Spain is not going to be any more the 30 00:02:45,050 --> 00:02:52,969 superpower okay and this the new superpower in europe is going to be france okay so spain started 31 00:02:52,969 --> 00:02:59,689 to look to lose its political importance in europe that's a due to the 30 years war and of course 32 00:03:01,289 --> 00:03:07,129 the superpower the new superpower in europe is going to be france okay remember this is the 33 00:03:07,129 --> 00:03:13,610 hispanic monarchy in the 17th century remember these territories this the netherlands are going 34 00:03:13,610 --> 00:03:21,129 to be the the territories where spain is fighting in order to reconquer this territory and in the 35 00:03:21,129 --> 00:03:27,689 second half of the 17th century spain is going to lose these territories in red in favor of france 36 00:03:27,689 --> 00:03:35,449 because france is going to be the new superpower in the continent okay so the idea is france is 37 00:03:35,449 --> 00:03:40,490 going to be the new superpower spain is going to lose its importance its power and is going 38 00:03:40,490 --> 00:03:48,740 to lose part of its territory in Europe in favor of France so another important 39 00:03:48,740 --> 00:03:52,139 thing that is related with this crisis because we are going to suffer like a 40 00:03:52,139 --> 00:03:56,900 political crisis of course if we if Spain is losing importance in Europe is 41 00:03:56,900 --> 00:04:01,259 because it's suffering a political crisis the Kings are going to delegate 42 00:04:01,259 --> 00:04:06,879 their power to validos valido is a Spanish word is like a prime minister 43 00:04:06,879 --> 00:04:14,240 a valido is like the person that you trust more okay and you let this person to govern the country 44 00:04:14,879 --> 00:04:20,079 imagine i don't know i'm felipe tercero i do not want to govern i don't like to govern 45 00:04:20,079 --> 00:04:26,720 okay but i'm the king and i must be the king of spain but i don't like it i don't like to govern 46 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:34,319 for me it's boring what i prefer is to start reading to to to decide to to live a different 47 00:04:34,319 --> 00:04:39,800 life okay like I don't know playing video games imagine okay so what I'm going to say is one of 48 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:47,680 my trusted persons it means one of my best friends I'm going to say okay you imagine my best friend 49 00:04:47,680 --> 00:04:53,459 is Alejandro okay Alejandro you are going to be the valido of Spain so you are going to be 50 00:04:53,459 --> 00:04:58,620 governing Spain I'm going to be the king but you are going to make the decisions okay you are going 51 00:04:58,620 --> 00:05:04,660 to be the one in charge, so that's what they are going to do, they are going to delegate their 52 00:05:04,660 --> 00:05:10,660 power in the validos, okay, we are going to have two main validos, Duque de Lerma, in case of Felipe 53 00:05:10,660 --> 00:05:18,279 III, con the Duque de Olivares, in case of Felipe IV, and these validos are going to be characterized 54 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:23,800 by two main characteristics, the first one is that they are going to use this power, the power that 55 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:29,939 the king is going to give them in order to be richer okay that's an important characteristic 56 00:05:29,939 --> 00:05:36,519 okay they want to be rich and in order to be richer of course they are not peasants they are 57 00:05:36,519 --> 00:05:41,620 nobles they have money so in order to become richer what they are going to do is just use 58 00:05:41,620 --> 00:05:49,920 their power in order to do that also these validos are going to say okay i'm going to use my friends 59 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:57,959 and family and i'm going to give them important spots in the administration imagine i'm the king 60 00:05:57,959 --> 00:06:04,560 of spain i'm felipe tercero okay my best friend is as i said alejandro alejandro is going to be 61 00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:10,120 the valid and imagine alejandro is a friend of cristina and marcos and he's going to say okay 62 00:06:10,120 --> 00:06:15,500 cristina you're going to be the ministry for foreign office and you marcos are going to be 63 00:06:15,500 --> 00:06:21,939 the ministry of a I don't know a defense not related with the army and the wars 64 00:06:21,939 --> 00:06:28,540 so what he these validos are going to do is to give positions to give spots to 65 00:06:28,540 --> 00:06:34,939 give positions inside the administration okay to people that they are part of 66 00:06:34,939 --> 00:06:41,019 their families or their supporters okay friends so the idea is these validos are 67 00:06:41,019 --> 00:06:44,959 going to get the power because the Kings do not want to rule the country because 68 00:06:44,959 --> 00:06:48,720 Because the kings are lazy, they do not want to rule the country, so what they are going 69 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:54,160 to do is give the power to their best friends or the person that they trust more. 70 00:06:54,160 --> 00:07:00,160 So these Validos are going to be the ones with the power, with the political power and 71 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:05,120 they are going to do two things during their rule. 72 00:07:05,120 --> 00:07:07,319 The first one is to become richer. 73 00:07:07,319 --> 00:07:14,740 The second one is to give positions to their friends, the people that support these Validos 74 00:07:14,959 --> 00:07:18,660 or their families. 75 00:07:18,660 --> 00:07:25,000 So these validos are going to obtain all of this, they are going to obtain more money 76 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,839 of course, they are going to obtain the political power and they are going to give, they are 77 00:07:28,839 --> 00:07:34,980 going to share their power with other people, people that they trust a lot, maybe people 78 00:07:34,980 --> 00:07:51,860 from their family or friends, and they are going to use these people in order to get 79 00:07:51,860 --> 00:07:58,279 new positions, in order to get people in their favor. 80 00:07:58,279 --> 00:08:02,980 So these are the main characteristics of these monarchs, Felipe III, Felipe IV and Carlos 81 00:08:02,980 --> 00:08:10,060 during the 17th century okay so they are going to have these validos they are going to spain is 82 00:08:10,060 --> 00:08:17,100 going to lose importance in the european sphere and we are going to suffer a deep economic crisis 83 00:08:17,100 --> 00:08:22,800 our kings are going to be lazy they do not want to work well in case of carlos abundo he cannot 84 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:29,459 because he he has a lot of problems health problems and these kings are going to have 85 00:08:29,459 --> 00:08:34,580 Validos, Validos that they are going to have the power instead of the king, it means the 86 00:08:34,580 --> 00:08:38,759 king is going to delegate the power in the Validos. 87 00:08:38,759 --> 00:08:43,519 So let's see this Ocean of Habsburgs, let's see Felipe III, Felipe III is going to reign 88 00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:52,220 from 1598 till 1621, ok, here is Felipe III, he is really young, he is healthy, he is a 89 00:08:52,220 --> 00:08:59,100 healthy man, ok, but he is more interested on music, ok, and literature, so he knows 90 00:08:59,100 --> 00:09:06,419 how to play violin etc so he loves music he loves culture but he is not 91 00:09:06,419 --> 00:09:11,860 interested on governing okay so that's why he is going to have this valido Duke 92 00:09:11,860 --> 00:09:16,600 of Lerma and look at the Lerma look at the Lerma is going to be the valido the 93 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:26,960 valido of Felipe III okay so the thing is this Felipe III is going to face 94 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:32,899 this difficult economic situation okay so in order to try to face this economic 95 00:09:32,899 --> 00:09:38,080 crisis they are going to try to reduce expenses by ending armed conflicts what 96 00:09:38,080 --> 00:09:44,480 is this the thing is Spain is suffering a huge economic crisis Spain has no 97 00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:51,240 money in order to fight in new wars so what they are going to decide what what 98 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:55,580 Felipe III and the Duke of Lermont are going to decide is to try to end 99 00:09:55,580 --> 00:10:01,500 end with the different conflicts which conflicts they are going to end first peace treaty with 100 00:10:01,500 --> 00:10:08,759 england in 1603 okay they are going to sign this peace treaty with england and there is no more 101 00:10:08,759 --> 00:10:14,019 conflicts with england so it means we spain is not going to spend more money on this war 102 00:10:14,019 --> 00:10:21,019 second a truce is going to be declared with the protestants in the low countries in the netherlands 103 00:10:21,019 --> 00:10:26,740 Okay, a truce is a tregua, a truce of 12 years 104 00:10:26,960 --> 00:10:31,179 Okay, so the idea this truce is going to be signed in 105 00:10:32,700 --> 00:10:38,580 1609 okay 1609 so they are going to stop the war with the 106 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,379 With the lower countries with the low countries 107 00:10:41,379 --> 00:10:48,159 So the idea is Spain is going to end with these two conflicts the conflict with England the conflict with the protestant in the low 108 00:10:48,159 --> 00:10:53,539 countries so it's going to stop this one and end with this one in order to try to 109 00:10:53,539 --> 00:10:58,220 solve this difficult economic situation how they are going to try to end with 110 00:10:58,220 --> 00:11:05,440 this difficult economic difficult situation just stopping spending money 111 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:14,549 on this wars okay reducing the expenses okay by ending this armed conflict so 112 00:11:14,549 --> 00:11:20,269 So the idea is they are going to have this economic situation, this difficult economic 113 00:11:20,269 --> 00:11:25,289 situation and also Felipe III is going to have another problem. 114 00:11:25,289 --> 00:11:31,529 The thing is Felipe III wants to demonstrate to the world that he is the championship of 115 00:11:31,529 --> 00:11:35,409 Catholicism, that he is really committed with Catholicism. 116 00:11:35,409 --> 00:11:41,070 So in order to do that, remember this, he is going to expel the Moriscos in 1609. 117 00:11:41,070 --> 00:11:50,529 the economic and demographic crisis provoked by this expulsion, by expelling these Moriscos 118 00:11:50,529 --> 00:11:53,210 from the Iberian Peninsula. 119 00:11:53,210 --> 00:11:57,230 So what we are seeing is Felipe III is not interested in governing, so he is going to 120 00:11:57,230 --> 00:12:00,830 give the power to the Duke of Lerma, that is going to be the Valido. 121 00:12:00,830 --> 00:12:06,110 In order to solve this economic situation, the difficult economic situation, they are 122 00:12:06,110 --> 00:12:11,090 going to try to end with the armed conflicts first with England then with 123 00:12:11,090 --> 00:12:16,129 the Protestants in the Low Countries okay but this truce is going to be just 124 00:12:16,129 --> 00:12:22,909 for 12 years and also okay and also Felipe III wants to show the 125 00:12:22,909 --> 00:12:29,309 commitment of his monarchy with Catholicism by expelling the Moriscos in 126 00:12:29,309 --> 00:12:34,909 1609 okay remember most of them were in the crown of Aragon most of them are 127 00:12:34,909 --> 00:12:42,110 going to be farmers we are talking about 300,000 Moriscos expelled from the 128 00:12:42,110 --> 00:12:50,110 crown of Aragon so it's going to be a demographic and economic tragedy okay so 129 00:12:50,110 --> 00:12:55,490 this is going to be an economic is going to make the economic crisis even worse 130 00:12:55,490 --> 00:13:00,710 even when they have stopped they have end with these two conflicts at least 131 00:13:00,710 --> 00:13:09,029 this one forever in principio this is going to be forever but this one is going to be just 12 years 132 00:13:10,710 --> 00:13:17,190 so this is the reign of Felipe III just to have this economic problem just to try to show the 133 00:13:17,190 --> 00:13:23,750 commitment with catholicism and also okay to have one valido that is going to be the duke of lerma 134 00:13:23,750 --> 00:13:34,710 okay so we are talking about this uh this first king you know that he is going to uh die in 1621 135 00:13:34,710 --> 00:13:40,549 so we are going to see his son is going to inherit the the kingdom in 1621 and it's going to rain 136 00:13:40,549 --> 00:13:51,909 until 1665 okay so 44 years of rain felipe cuarto felipe cuarto is going to try to do his best 137 00:13:51,909 --> 00:13:58,389 he was really religious okay so he he felt guilty because of all the sins he was committing 138 00:13:59,909 --> 00:14:04,389 so he's going to have a new valido the valido is going to be the con duke of olivares and 139 00:14:05,990 --> 00:14:12,070 is going to be one of the best values in the 17th century he was a hard worker he has a 140 00:14:12,629 --> 00:14:19,269 a modern vision of the state he wants to make spain great again let's say this this motto okay 141 00:14:19,269 --> 00:14:27,970 he wants to make Spain get back all the power that Spain used to have it means 142 00:14:27,970 --> 00:14:33,730 he wants to make a Spain a huge superpower in Europe again the problem 143 00:14:33,730 --> 00:14:38,769 is the different measures he is going to take or he is going to make it are or 144 00:14:38,769 --> 00:14:42,669 the decision that he is going to make are not going to be the best and you'll 145 00:14:42,669 --> 00:14:46,169 see why okay so this is the idea we have Felipe 146 00:14:46,169 --> 00:14:51,289 IV here we have a Conductor Olivares he is going to be the one taking the 147 00:14:51,289 --> 00:14:55,590 decisions okay or making the decisions okay and he's going to make the 148 00:14:55,590 --> 00:14:58,990 decisions in order to make Spain great again in order to make the Hispanic 149 00:14:58,990 --> 00:15:04,769 monarchy a huge superpower ruling again Europe how he's going to do this let's 150 00:15:04,769 --> 00:15:09,809 see so he wants to regain power over Europe and how is he going to do this 151 00:15:09,809 --> 00:15:15,850 okay first he is going to take part in new wars one of them the Thirty Years 152 00:15:15,850 --> 00:15:20,750 War okay he is going to restart the war in the low countries and he is going to 153 00:15:20,750 --> 00:15:26,929 fight against France so this is going to be a problem okay the 154 00:15:26,929 --> 00:15:34,029 Conde de Duque de Olivares when Spain has not overcome the economic crisis is going to 155 00:15:34,029 --> 00:15:40,669 fight again in new wars so el conde duque de olivares is going to decide to participate in 156 00:15:40,669 --> 00:15:48,289 these three wars first in the 30 years war then he is going to restart the war in the low countries 157 00:15:48,289 --> 00:15:55,210 and again the war against france okay so he is going to fight in these three specific 158 00:15:55,210 --> 00:15:59,389 scenarios okay against france against the low countries and in the 30 years war 159 00:15:59,389 --> 00:16:06,570 Okay, remember, these are the territories of the Hispanic monarchy, these are the territories 160 00:16:06,570 --> 00:16:14,470 of the Austrians, and these territories that they are in green are the other side, there 161 00:16:14,470 --> 00:16:23,750 are two sides in this world of the 30 years, remember, we have seen it in the last epigraph, 162 00:16:23,750 --> 00:16:28,590 so these are going to be the kingdoms or the territories, the ones that they are like in 163 00:16:28,590 --> 00:16:36,049 pink or orange in one side, and these ones that they are in green are going to be the 164 00:16:36,049 --> 00:16:38,789 other side. 165 00:16:38,789 --> 00:16:46,110 So the idea is, in order to face this situation, in order to be able to carry out, to fight 166 00:16:46,110 --> 00:16:51,409 in these wars, the Conde Duque de Olivares is going to propose two main measures. 167 00:16:51,409 --> 00:16:56,129 It means he knows that he needs more money, he knows that he needs more soldiers in order 168 00:16:56,129 --> 00:16:58,129 to fight in these wars. 169 00:16:58,129 --> 00:17:03,809 So in order to do these two things, he needs two measures, which are the two measures first 170 00:17:03,809 --> 00:17:10,890 to get more money, how the king is going to get more money, new taxes, of course, I'm 171 00:17:10,890 --> 00:17:15,670 going to increase the taxes, so you need to pay, and you need to pay more in order to 172 00:17:15,670 --> 00:17:23,549 fight these wars, so that's to increase the tax collection, they are going to pay more 173 00:17:23,549 --> 00:17:29,809 taxes or they are going to force the population to pay more taxes in order to be able to face 174 00:17:29,809 --> 00:17:37,970 these wars second he's going to have one of the most important ideas the union de armas the union 175 00:17:37,970 --> 00:17:45,450 of arms la politica de union de armas what is he proposing with this policy this policy is based on 176 00:17:45,450 --> 00:17:53,049 the idea of all the territories in the hispanic monarchy giving money and giving soldiers to the 177 00:17:53,049 --> 00:17:58,029 empire okay before this policy the union the 178 00:17:58,029 --> 00:18:04,450 armistice policy only Castile was giving money and soldiers in order to fight in 179 00:18:04,450 --> 00:18:10,569 Flanders or in the Netherlands to fight in Europe to fight in America etc what 180 00:18:10,569 --> 00:18:16,569 is the conduct of Olivares, the conduct Olivares is going to propose is all these 181 00:18:16,569 --> 00:18:23,730 territories all these kingdoms must give soldiers and money okay they must give 182 00:18:23,730 --> 00:18:30,609 soldiers some money in order to fight okay how they are how we are going to 183 00:18:30,609 --> 00:18:35,829 establish the amount of money and soldiers they are they need to pay and 184 00:18:35,829 --> 00:18:43,910 support or give depending on the the economy of its territory and also the 185 00:18:43,910 --> 00:18:48,849 population of each kingdom what is the problem that there are going to be some 186 00:18:48,849 --> 00:18:52,809 of the territories that they are not going to be in favor of paying more 187 00:18:52,809 --> 00:19:01,410 taxes and giving soldiers which territories are going to revolt against 188 00:19:01,410 --> 00:19:10,029 this policy Catalonia Portugal Naples and Sicily and also there are going to 189 00:19:10,029 --> 00:19:17,829 be plots or conspiracies in Andalusia okay so we are going to have these 190 00:19:17,829 --> 00:19:22,789 territories that they are going to revolt against these measures against 191 00:19:22,789 --> 00:19:27,910 paying more money it means paying a paying more taxes and also giving 192 00:19:27,910 --> 00:19:32,470 soldiers the these territories are going to be Portugal Andalusia is going to 193 00:19:32,470 --> 00:19:40,450 carry out a revolt no a revolt a conspiracy a Catalonia Naples and 194 00:19:40,450 --> 00:19:46,190 Sicily okay so this is the problems the problems of this political union the 195 00:19:46,190 --> 00:19:50,769 armistice Union of arms that proposed that all the kingdoms ruled by the 196 00:19:50,769 --> 00:19:54,789 Spanish monarchy provides soldiers our pounds to cover the cost of the European 197 00:19:54,789 --> 00:20:00,970 Wars the problems are going to be these revolts okay Spain started to win the 198 00:20:00,970 --> 00:20:06,730 war okay but he is going to finally lose it remember we have seen the 30 years war spain 199 00:20:06,730 --> 00:20:15,750 is going to start winning the war but finally we are going to lose it okay and the new measures of 200 00:20:15,750 --> 00:20:21,329 olivares are going to cause some kingdoms to revolt which ones as i said catalonia portugal 201 00:20:21,329 --> 00:20:28,859 naples sicily and we are going to have this conspiracy in andalusia so portugal is going 202 00:20:28,859 --> 00:20:35,359 to revolt in 1640, Catalonia is going to revolt in 1640, Andalusia is going to 203 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:42,259 carry out its conspiracy by Duke of Medina Sidonia it means a noble he wants 204 00:20:42,259 --> 00:20:48,599 to turn Andalusia independent okay and also we are going to find this revolt in 205 00:20:48,599 --> 00:20:56,160 Naples in 1641 so the Count Duke of Olivares has great ideas like the Union 206 00:20:56,160 --> 00:21:04,160 in order to fight in these wars and also due to these wars regain power over Europe but the 207 00:21:04,160 --> 00:21:10,200 problem is this union de armas is going to fail why because these kingdoms are going to be against 208 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:17,380 this policy against pay more taxes again paying more in order to pay the wars and also to provide 209 00:21:17,380 --> 00:21:23,900 soldiers okay so these are the territories you see Portugal you see Catalonia you see Naples and 210 00:21:23,900 --> 00:21:32,619 Sicily, you see in Andalusia, the conspiracy of the Duke of Medina Sidonia, okay, and let's see 211 00:21:32,619 --> 00:21:39,460 two memes, okay, this meme, Olivares, Union of Weapons, Catalonia, going out the window, okay, that would be the 212 00:21:39,460 --> 00:21:47,680 idea, not only Catalonia, but Portugal, Sicily, Naples, and Andalusia, okay, or, for example, this other 213 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:53,220 meme, I, the Duke of Olivares, used to have inequality between territories, because not all 214 00:21:53,220 --> 00:21:57,960 pagaban lo mismo ni contribuían igual y falta de ingresos evidentemente tengo que pagar las 215 00:21:57,960 --> 00:22:02,799 guerras y no tengo dinero pero gracias a mi esfuerzo reformas visionarias la unión de armas 216 00:22:02,799 --> 00:22:08,380 adelantadas a mi tiempo porque hago que todos los territorios contribuyan igual y hay igualdad 217 00:22:08,380 --> 00:22:13,660 entre ellos justicia porque quiero que cada uno contribuya en función de sus posibilidades y 218 00:22:13,660 --> 00:22:19,480 mucha dedicación porque es verdad que fue un hombre muy trabajador llegó a quedarse calvo 219 00:22:19,480 --> 00:22:25,099 of the stress and the work he dedicated, now after the arms union I have 220 00:22:25,099 --> 00:22:30,700 inequality between territories, lack of income and separatist revolts, so 221 00:22:30,700 --> 00:22:38,619 his policy was exactly great, that is, it did not come out as he wanted, obviously 222 00:22:38,619 --> 00:22:44,259 the idea was that with his policy there would be greater equality between territories and an increase 223 00:22:44,259 --> 00:22:48,940 the income, win wars in Europe and from there derive the one that Spain had 224 00:22:48,940 --> 00:22:56,319 recover international prestige. But it was not like that, okay, the Union of Arms, this idea 225 00:22:56,319 --> 00:23:02,359 of all the different kingdoms providing soldiers and funds to cover the cost of 226 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:11,640 the European wars is going to fail, okay, so let's see which are going to be the 227 00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:19,640 consequences of these of these of these policies of this of this revolts okay 228 00:23:19,640 --> 00:23:27,599 Portugal is going to turn independent in 1668 um Portugal is not going to be it's 229 00:23:27,599 --> 00:23:35,339 not going to be integrated with Spain or unified with Spain anymore Catalonia is 230 00:23:35,339 --> 00:23:38,799 going to be controlling 1652 so Catalonia is going to be is going to 231 00:23:38,799 --> 00:23:46,559 remain part of the hispanic monarchy and spain continued fighting france after the 30 years war 232 00:23:46,559 --> 00:23:55,119 we have talked about this until 1659 and in 1659 of course spain was defeated and spain signed this 233 00:23:55,119 --> 00:24:01,859 treaty the treaty of the pyrenees and thanks to this treaty spain is going to keep catalonia but 234 00:24:01,859 --> 00:24:07,900 is going to lose these territories rosellona and cerdanya that is these territories in red okay 235 00:24:07,900 --> 00:24:15,160 This was supposed to be part of Catalonia, part of the Hispanic monarchy. 236 00:24:15,160 --> 00:24:19,359 Also Spain is going to lose these territories, but later, not now. 237 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:25,420 Spain in 1659 is going to lose this, Rossellena de Cerdaña. 238 00:24:25,420 --> 00:24:31,940 And Spain is going to arrange this marriage between one of the Felipe IV's daughter, 239 00:24:31,940 --> 00:24:37,220 Maria Teresa, with Luis XIV, the King of France, remember Luis XIV as an absolute monarch. 240 00:24:37,220 --> 00:24:44,619 And we talk about absolutism, we talk about Luis XIV, and here is Maria Teresa, the daughter 241 00:24:44,619 --> 00:24:48,680 of Philip IV, and they are going to be married. 242 00:24:48,680 --> 00:24:53,079 We are going to arrange, Philip IV is going to arrange this marriage due to the Treaty 243 00:24:53,079 --> 00:25:01,660 of Versailles, or the Treaty of the Pyrenees, or Paz de los Pirineos. 244 00:25:01,660 --> 00:25:11,039 So this is the reign of Philip IV, Philip IV is going to try with, along with the Conduke 245 00:25:11,039 --> 00:25:19,019 of Olivares to regain power in Europe for Spain, for the Hispanic monarchy, but they 246 00:25:19,019 --> 00:25:23,900 are going to fail, the different policies carried out by the Conduke of Olivares are 247 00:25:23,900 --> 00:25:28,980 going to make the situation even worse, there are going to be revolts in different territories, 248 00:25:28,980 --> 00:25:34,319 Portugal is going to turn independent, Catalonia is going to remain in hands of Spain, but 249 00:25:34,319 --> 00:25:41,779 Spain is going to be defeated by France, and Spain is going to lose Rosselló and Cerdanya, 250 00:25:41,779 --> 00:25:47,980 and Felipe IV is going to arrange this marriage between his daughter and the king of France, 251 00:25:47,980 --> 00:25:50,099 Luis XIV. 252 00:25:50,099 --> 00:25:55,359 So the next king is Charles II, but we are going to see this second half of the point 253 00:25:55,359 --> 00:25:57,839 in the next video.
