Spain in the Modern Ages 00:00:00
The modern age started in 1492, 00:00:22
and it finished in 1789 with the French Revolution. 00:00:26
In 1492, Christopher Columbus discovered America. 00:00:31
This year is considered to be the beginning of the modern age. 00:00:39
It was a time of discovery when people's ideas about the world changed. 00:00:45
Everything changed. 00:00:50
We had a much better world compared with the Middle Ages. 00:00:52
There were significant advances in economy, trade, politics and science. 00:00:56
Explorers discovered new lands and routes around the world 00:01:03
and brought back products that had not been seen in Europe before. 00:01:08
As a result, sea trade flourished and Spain became a rich and important power. 00:01:13
The discovery of America initiated the exchange of plants and animals between the continents. 00:01:27
Here are some examples. 00:01:33
Some examples of exportation are the following. 00:01:52
Or onions. 00:02:03
When the Spanish arrived in America, they found a great variety of people. 00:02:07
These were usually small tribes, but some groups had created big empires. 00:02:12
The Spanish expeditions invaded their territories, 00:02:19
imposing their language, culture, religion and customs. 00:02:23
The Mayas were organized as powerful city-states. 00:02:27
They lived in Central America, in a region that is today Mexico, Belize, Guatemala and Honduras. 00:02:32
They were the only American civilization that developed an advanced writing system. 00:02:41
They were also very advanced in sciences such as astronomy, medicine and mathematics. 00:02:47
The Aztecs were governed by an emperor. 00:02:54
They lived in the region that is today known as Central Mexico. 00:02:57
Their life was centered around religion. 00:03:02
To honor their gods, they built temples in the shape of a pyramid. 00:03:05
Most Aztecs were farmers. 00:03:11
They cultivated corn, vanilla and tomatoes. 00:03:14
The Incas lived in South America, in the region that is now called Peru. 00:03:19
Their capital city was Cuzco, and their language Quechua. 00:03:25
The Incas built a system of roads and used lamas to transport goods. 00:03:30
Isabel I of Castilla and Fernando II of Aragón 00:03:37
received the title of Catholic monarchs from the Pope after conquering the Kingdom of Granada. 00:03:43
During their reign, they unified the Iberian Peninsula, 00:03:51
reinforced royal authority and imposed the Catholic religion. 00:03:55
The Spanish Inquisition was established. 00:04:00
Its aim was to punish people who didn't follow the rules established by the Catholic Church. 00:04:03
The first Spanish grammar book was published in 1492 by Antonio de Nebrija. 00:04:09
The early modern age in Spain began with the marriage of Isabel I and Fernando II. 00:04:15
In 1479, they united the Kingdom of Castilla and of Aragón 00:04:22
and created one large powerful Christian kingdom. 00:04:29
Then, in 1492, they conquered the Kingdom of Granada. 00:04:33
This was the end of the Reconquista. 00:04:39
Christopher Columbus was an Italian navigator and explorer. 00:04:45
He wanted to find a new sea route to Asia. 00:04:49
Other navigators sailed around the coast of Africa, 00:04:52
but Columbus decided to sail west, across the Atlantic Ocean, 00:04:55
because he was convinced this was a shorter route. 00:04:59
The Catholic monarchs financed his expedition, 00:05:05
which led to the discovery of a new continent from a European point of view. 00:05:08
Columbus promised to bring back gold, spices and silks from the Far East 00:05:12
to spread Christianity and later on to lead an expedition to China. 00:05:17
On the 3rd of August of 1492, the three caravels left Palos de la Frontera, Huelva, 00:05:22
and on the 12th of October, 1492, arrived in San Salvador, an island in the Bahamas. 00:05:29
Carlos I became king in 1516. 00:05:36
He was the first Spanish king of the Habsburg dynasty. 00:05:40
He ruled over a great empire, which included Spain and its territories in America. 00:05:44
He also ruled over the Spanish capital of Madrid, 00:05:50
which was the capital of the Spanish Empire. 00:05:54
He was the first Spanish king of the Spanish Empire. 00:05:57
He ruled over a great empire, which included Spain and its territories in America. 00:06:01
He also inherited the German Empire from his father's family. 00:06:06
For this reason, he was also called Carlos V of Germany. 00:06:11
His personal and national motto was Blues Ultra, which means further beyond. 00:06:16
Before Carlos I died, he divided his empire into two kingdoms. 00:06:25
He gave the German Empire to his brother, Fernando. 00:06:30
His son, Felipe II, inherited his Spanish Empire, which included Spain and the Netherlands. 00:06:33
Felipe II became king in 1556. 00:06:41
In 1561, he established his permanent residence in Madrid. 00:06:46
The Spanish Empire expanded under his reign, especially in America. 00:06:53
In 1580, Felipe II conquered Portugal, which meant he controlled all of the Iberian Peninsula 00:06:58
and also ruled over the Portuguese territories in America, Africa and Asia. 00:07:05
The reign of Felipe II was also a period of wars and conflicts. 00:07:10
Felipe II's armies won many important battles on land and at sea. 00:07:15
In 1571, in the Battle of Lepanto, 00:07:20
the Spanish fleet stopped the Turkish Empire from taking control of the Mediterranean Sea. 00:07:23
However, these wars were very expensive, 00:07:29
so the king had to use gold and silver brought from America to pay for them. 00:07:32
The price of some products increased and the Spanish population became poorer. 00:07:37
