so in this new video we are going to finish with the the last epigraph of this unit we are going
00:00:00
to talk about the reign of carlos ii and the war that is going to take place in europe after his
00:00:06
death okay so carlos segundo is going to is going to start raining in 1665 and is going to die in
00:00:13
1700 okay so let's see what happens okay here is carlos segundo as you can see he wasn't very
00:00:22
handsome he as you can see he had a physical issues he has also mental issues remember this
00:00:30
is a portrait so when they paint a portrait is because they want to show they want to like
00:00:41
photoshop the person remember okay so in a portrait they are not representing perfectly
00:00:49
the person so they are trying to make him um like make him more beautiful or more powerful or more
00:00:53
or stronger or whatever so in this case imagine this is the representation of carlos segundo
00:01:02
imagine how he was in the real world in reality okay so the idea is we have this carlos segundo
00:01:09
he was not very handsome of course he had physical and mental problems and he is going to
00:01:17
he needs to handle he needs to he needs to manage Spain in a very difficult moment because after his
00:01:25
father dies in 1665 Spain has lost most of his its power in Europe and Spain is losing territories
00:01:31
against France okay also Spain is in an economic crisis still seen an economic crisis but the
00:01:40
this crisis is going to start finishing during Carlos II's reign
00:01:46
so let's see he was a minor when he came to the throne it means he was underage
00:01:55
he wasn't 16 years old he was underage he was a minor no one thought that he would survive
00:02:02
but he survived 35 years okay so the thing is he was a minor so he is going
00:02:10
to have several different validos so so he's going to have many different
00:02:17
validos okay his mother he's going to have a cardinal she's going to have
00:02:21
novels etc he is going to have different validos okay we don't we do not need to
00:02:27
need to know their names but the thing is he was minor he was underage and the
00:02:33
idea is she the the mother is going to he is going to be the regent he's going
00:02:39
to govern the country until the 70s until the 70s in the 17th century and
00:02:46
after that we are going to have different values more than these two of
00:02:52
course but these are the two more important okay so the idea is we are
00:02:55
going to have many different values okay and his reign is going to be
00:03:00
characterized by the economic crisis but that is going to a but also that is
00:03:04
going to start recovering he is going to start he's going to Spain is going to
00:03:11
start overcoming this this crisis at the end or by the end of the reign it means
00:03:17
at the end of the 17th century Spain is going to start overcoming this crisis
00:03:24
this economic crisis okay so his reign is going to be characterized by the economic crisis but
00:03:31
also by the measures that is going to let Spain overcome and superar the crisis economic crisis
00:03:37
okay the other part is what I said before that France is going to continue fighting against
00:03:47
Spain okay and gaining more territories okay these territories in Belgium in Luxembourg etc
00:03:53
these different territories are going to be gained by France against Spain, and also other
00:04:01
types of territories, but the territories are going to be in these regions.
00:04:08
The problem of Carlos II is that he is going to die with no heirs, it means there is no
00:04:15
babies, there is no sons, there is no daughters, so there is going to be a problem related
00:04:20
with the succession of Carlos II.
00:04:28
It means Carlos II is going to die, but he is going to die with no heirs.
00:04:30
So the idea is there is a problem of secession.
00:04:34
There are going to be two possible candidates.
00:04:38
One is going to be Austrian.
00:04:41
One is going to be from the Habsburg dynasty.
00:04:43
Remember, he, Carlos II, belonged to the Habsburg dynasty.
00:04:47
So what we are going to find is these two persons, these two possibilities.
00:04:52
One candidate that is going to be from the Habsburg dynasty is going to be called Archiduque Carlos.
00:04:56
Okay, he was the son of the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire of Germany, I mean.
00:05:03
So the idea is we have this candidate and there is another candidate.
00:05:11
This candidate is French.
00:05:15
This candidate is Felipe de Bourbon, Felipe de Anjou.
00:05:17
Okay, not de Bourbon, de Anjou, Felipe de Anjou.
00:05:22
so this this Philip Felipe de Anjou is the other candidate why Felipe de Anjou is the candidate
00:05:25
remember the daughter Maria Teresa the daughter of Philip the fourth Maria Teresa was married to
00:05:34
Luis XIV okay so they are going to have sons and Felipe is going to be the nephew or sobrino of
00:05:40
So, the idea is that Carlos II had two possibilities.
00:05:51
One is this French candidate called Felipe, because he is related with his family, because
00:05:58
of this marriage between Maria Teresa and Luis XIV, and the other part is, on the other
00:06:03
side what we have is this person for the Habsburg dynasty, that is the Archduke Carlos.
00:06:12
So the problem is he has no heirs and there is going to be a conflict, a war in Europe
00:06:19
and Spain and the Iberian Peninsula to see who is going to be the successor of Carlos
00:06:25
II.
00:06:31
So let's see this war of the Spanish succession, la guerra de sucesión española, es decir,
00:06:34
es una guerra in order to see who is going to rule in Spain after Carlos II.
00:06:39
Carlos II is going to be dead, is going to die, and Carlos II is going to die, and there are these two possible candidates.
00:06:47
So what is the problem? Carlos II is going to die in 1700, and he is going to give the kingdoms to Felipe de Borbón, Felipe de Anjou, the nephew of Luis XIV.
00:07:01
So, that's the idea, Carlos II, before he died, on his will, he gave the throne of Spain,
00:07:11
of the Hispanic monarchy, to Felipe de Borbón, the French candidate.
00:07:21
What is the problem of Felipe de Borbón?
00:07:26
Ok, the problem is, well, here is Felipe de Borbón, he is going to be Philip V, Felipe
00:07:29
De Bourbon, remember we have now Philippe VI, Philippe VI, and here is Carlos II, so here we have the successor, it's going to be a French, it's going to be Philippe, Philippe V, De Bourbon, Philippe De Bourbon.
00:07:36
Okay
00:07:56
So the problem is that most of the countries in Europe are not going to accept this situation
00:07:57
Why because they are thinking of this we have Felipe ruling
00:08:03
the Iberian Peninsula Spain way along with Naples, Sicily, Sardinia, Milan
00:08:09
Belgium and also America so it's a superpower and if we add to the superpower France
00:08:16
okay what we have is two main superpowers ruling the continent what is
00:08:23
who is going to be against this Union because remember Luis XIV is the uncle
00:08:28
of Felipe so Felipe and Luis are part of the same family they are going to have a
00:08:33
policy together the same policy for Europe and these two superpowers are
00:08:39
going to they could rule the whole continent so the idea is who is going to
00:08:44
be against this Union Portugal the Netherlands England okay and also the
00:08:51
Holy Roman Empire because in the Holy Roman Empire we have the son of the
00:08:59
Emperor that is Archduke Carlos and this Archduke Carlos is saying okay I want to
00:09:02
be the king of Spain I do not want I do not accept Philip to be the king of
00:09:08
Spain so what we are going to see is two main battlefields in this the war is
00:09:12
going to break out due to this conflict okay because the Archduke Carlos wants
00:09:18
to reign and also the other European countries are not going to accept this
00:09:23
Union France and Spain together that would be a great superpower controlling
00:09:27
Europe so the idea is who we are going to have two main battlefields a European
00:09:32
battlefield where an a peninsular battlefield in the peninsula the crown
00:09:38
of Aragon is going to support Archiduque Carlos and Castile is going to support Felipe while
00:09:44
in Europe France is going to support Felipe and the rest of the countries are going to
00:09:52
support Archiduque Carlos ok so we have two candidates Archiduque Carlos and Felipe the
00:09:57
European countries except for France are going to support Archiduque Carlos because they
00:10:04
They do not want this union between France and Spain, and in the Iberian Peninsula, Castile
00:10:09
is going to support Philip, and the Crown of Aragon is going to support Archduke Carlos.
00:10:17
So these two sides, it means the supporters of Philip is going to be Castile, France and
00:10:26
the American Viceroyalties, and the supporters of Archduke Carlos are going to be the Crown
00:10:32
of aragon austria of course great britain the netherlands portugal and other states okay
00:10:38
like you'll see that other states that sweden etc they are going to join the archduke carlos
00:10:46
option savoy is another one supporting archduke carlos okay so we have this war this civil war
00:10:53
between two sides between two candidates one of the candidates is archduke carlos the other
00:11:01
candidate is going to be the other candidate is going to be I will see the
00:11:07
other candidates Philippe de Bourbon and Philippe de Bourbon is going to
00:11:16
have the support of Castile and France and all the European territories of the
00:11:19
Hispanic monarchy and America while Archiduque Carlos is going to have the
00:11:23
support of Portugal Great Britain the Netherlands Savoy Aragon Austria okay
00:11:29
that that they are not in favor of Philip what is going to happen well this
00:11:35
is Archiduque Carlos okay so we have this civil war with two sides okay in
00:11:41
Europe and in the Iberian Peninsula what is going to happen you could think okay
00:11:47
if in Europe Spain or Felipe sorry has only France as its ally and Castile and
00:11:52
the Viceroyalties of course Philip is going to lose the war well the thing is
00:11:59
not ok the thing is the evolution of the conflict means in the European
00:12:03
battlefields of course the supporter for Carlos that they are a lot they are
00:12:08
England Portugal etc they are going to start winning the war but in the
00:12:11
peninsular battlefields Philip was winning the war it means Castile was
00:12:16
defeating Aragon ok so this is the evolution of the conflict in Europe in
00:12:22
the European battlefields Archiduque Carlos is winning the war while in the
00:12:28
Iberian Peninsula Felipe is winning the war ok perfect so the idea is we have
00:12:33
this European battlefields and this peninsular battlefields ok but there is
00:12:42
going to be one specific problem or one specific change that is going to be the
00:12:46
turning point turning point means punto de inflexión que quiere decir que todo
00:12:53
cambia a partir de ese desecho y hay un hecho que va a cambiar la guerra
00:12:58
completely yes okay the turning point is going to be in 1711 when carlos de austria
00:13:02
inherited the holy roman empire and what happened if archiduke carlos controls the
00:13:09
holy roman empire and also spain that we are going to have another superpower that is going to be
00:13:16
ruling europe so that in this moment in 1711 england the the netherlands savoy
00:13:22
they are going to stop supporting Archiduque Carlos and in that moment they are going to
00:13:31
force to sign a peace treaty okay and this treaty is called the Treaty of Utrecht because it was
00:13:38
signed in the city of Utrecht in the Netherlands so the idea is this turning point 1711 is going
00:13:45
to end with a war as as soon as Carlos de Austria inherited this Holy Roman Empire because it means
00:13:53
to have again a superpower in europe and remember the european countries except for france do
00:13:59
didn't want this superpower in europe so what we are going to see now is carlos of austria
00:14:07
that inherited the holy roman empire is going to lose the support of england savoy portugal
00:14:13
etc the netherlands etc so they are going to withdraw and they are going to sign the peace
00:14:22
treaty the treaty of utrecht but the situation is not that in europe the different countries are
00:14:27
going to accept spain ruled by philip along with france no they are going to share they are going
00:14:34
to divide the spanish possessions in europe for example gibraltar and menorca are going to be for
00:14:42
great britain and since that moment gibraltar has been british savoy is going to obtain sicily
00:14:49
Naples, Sardinia, Milan, Luxembourg and Flanders are going to go for Austria, it means for
00:14:56
the Archidio Carlos.
00:15:02
So that's it, after the Peace of Utrecht what we have is a Spain that is going to lose the
00:15:05
European territories but is going to maintain the American territories while Austria is
00:15:10
going to obtain these territories in Europe, Savoy is going to obtain this and Great Britain
00:15:16
is going to obtain these two specific territories from Spain.
00:15:22
So after the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713, Spain is going to lose all these territories.
00:15:28
Philip V ended as King of Spain of course, but losing these European territories, Naples,
00:15:35
Sardinia, the Netherlands of course, that they are going to be independent, and Milan.
00:15:41
Naples and Milan and Sardinia are going to be for the Archduke Carlos and Sicily is going
00:15:46
to be for Savoy.
00:15:56
Also the Netherlands became independent, it means Spain is going to accept the Netherlands
00:15:58
to be independent and Great Britain is going to acquire Gibraltar, Menorca and some American
00:16:03
privileges.
00:16:08
to be able to trade with America legally okay not to use pirates in order to
00:16:09
trade with America so that's the idea what we have in this evolution of the
00:16:21
conflict is that in the European battlefields Archidius Carlos was winning
00:16:26
the war while in the peninsula was Philip but the problem is in 1711 this
00:16:30
turning point, no punto inflexión. Carlos de Austria inherited the Holy Roman
00:16:35
Empire so all his supporters withdraw from the war and said no I'm not going
00:16:39
to accept Archiduque Carlos to be the king or the emperor of the Holy Roman
00:16:44
Empire and also the king of Spain. So they force Carlos and Philip to sign
00:16:49
this treaty. What is going to happen with this treaty? Philip V is going to be
00:16:56
king of spain perfect but spain is going to lose all its european territories naples sardinia the
00:17:00
netherlands milan okay also what we are going to see is the netherlands becoming independent
00:17:07
accepting this savoy obtaining sicily and great britain obtaining gibraltar menorca and some
00:17:14
american privileges economic privileges and with this we have finished with the curse we have
00:17:22
finished with the units related with history in for the first of what you are
00:17:29
going to study is that we are going to study we are going to start with the
00:17:36
18th century we are going to start with this with the Spanish this the this the
00:17:39
war of secession the Spanish war of secession okay
