00:00:12
on gold and silver imported from America the 18th century began with the war of succession
00:00:21

00:00:28
Your mission is to discover what happened during this period of history.
00:00:40
Let the force be with you.
00:00:48
The early modern age started in Spain with the discovery of America,
00:00:58
and it finished in the late 18th century with the French Revolution.
00:01:03
During this time, social structure was hierarchical and very unfair.
00:01:09
Social classes were based on status and wealth.
00:01:16
It was very difficult to move up from one class to another.
00:01:21
society was divided between the privileged class
00:01:26
and the unprivileged class.
00:01:31
Spain in the 17th century
00:01:34
Constant wars in the previous century and the cost of maintaining a large
00:01:40
empire had many consequences for Spain.
00:01:43
A great economic crisis began and Spain
00:01:46
entered a difficult period of financial and political troubles.
00:01:49
During the 17th century, Spain was involved in many wars over territory and religion,
00:01:54
such as the Thirty Years' War from 1618 to 1648.
00:02:06
By the end of the 17th century, Spain had lost some of its territories in Europe, including
00:02:13
Portugal.
00:02:19
The kings spent large amounts of money paying the soldiers and the officials involved in
00:02:20
the administration of the Spanish Empire.
00:02:25
This left less gold and silver for other purposes.
00:02:28
In addition, pirates, often supported by France or England, attacked Spanish ships on their
00:02:32
way back to Spain from America.
00:02:37
Three Habsburg kings ruled during the 17th century.
00:02:40
They were Felipe III, Felipe IV and Carlos II.
00:02:48
These kings allowed ministers to represent them and to control government administration.
00:02:55
These ministers, called validos, became very powerful.
00:03:02
Felipe III. Felipe III was king between 1598 and 1621. Under his rule, Spain started to
00:03:10
lose power and influence in Europe. Felipe started to leave his power in the hands of
00:03:23
Validos who became the real rulers of the country. The Duque de Lerma had a lot of power
00:03:28
during Felipe III's reign. Economic problems soon started to build up. Gold and silver
00:03:34
were not arriving in such large quantities from America. The country was not in good
00:03:41
hands and previously prosperous cities such as Segovia, Toledo, and Sevilla started to
00:03:47
undergo slow economic decline.
00:03:55
Felipe IV Felipe IV was king between 1621 and 1665,
00:03:58
but in reality his valido, the Conde Duque de Olivares, ruled the country for him.
00:04:12

00:04:19
Carlos II Carlos II ruled between 1665 and 1700.
00:04:34
He couldn't have any children.

The population of Spain decreased during the 17th century.
00:05:03
Many people died in wars.
00:05:09
famine caused by poor harvests and plagues also reduced the population
00:05:13
many people emigrated to america to find a better life
00:05:25
in the meantime the population of moriscos was increasing in spain
00:05:32
Spain. Some of them were successful merchants and shopkeepers. Due to this increase in power,
00:05:37
the decision was made to expel the Moriscos from Spain.
00:05:49
Many children were separated from their families as their parents left Spain. This was the
00:05:57
end of the 17th century in Spain. A lot of things had happened. The Habsburg kings with
