S.S Spain loses it’s empire

Spain loses it empire
The Spain and French were growing technical advisements and with conflict. A man named Napoleon who was French had conquered most of Spain and made laws that unraveled and made it so the church wasn't as important. One of the reason he did that was because it rattle the foundation of spain. Secondly he dictated how Spain was and how to act. The Spaniard didn't like that, they knew that they were romantics and loved their culture. Napoleon didn't know that the Spanish was rising up and getting ready to attack. But when Napoleon was trying to conquer the rest of Europe, Spain saw a good time to raise up and fight France. The battle took many years, the Spaniards even asked the British to help, and made defenses that made so that pirates couldn't interfere. But when Spain won the French agreed on a treaty. The treaty was that the French and Spain would leave each other alone if the French would give them back a king they took hostage before the war.

S.S urban kings of Spain

The Spanish and British made treaty, the treaty was that the British Took a great amount of their ports, land, and other valuable assets in which it made Spain small again. There were multiple different tribes, and none of them thought of themselves as Spaniards. The king at that time thought that he needed to unite Spain at that time and he thought the only way was through brutal force, it worked but the tribes were not happy about it. When he finally united Spain he past it down to his air. His hair was glum sometimes and only one artist could cheer up the king even though the king, the queen, and his son and daughter-in-law were all artists as well. With artists came new ideas in which came schools, hospitals, and other benefactors that helped the economy.

S.S Columbus in the New World

The whole world was changing because of Columbus discoveries, but he didn't even care. One reason was that he was promised 10% of the land that he found, but was denied it because of his cruelty. Other countries didn't like that Spain was taking all of the New World just because we found a first, so they proposed the treaty in which they accepted. When country after country came they came with diseases, they were immune to it but Native weren't and a good population of them died.

S.S Columbus in the new world

When Columbus was almost out of money, he went to Spain and tried to make a deal with the Queen. In the deal he was given three ships to go to Japan, he thought instead of going around Africa, he could go around the world to Japan. After a couple of days and they were about to head back, they stumbled onto the coast of Florida. When he went back to Spain, he showed the new world to the Queen, and went back to the new world with 17 more fleets. He was then replaced because he was cruel to the Indians and to his fellow Spaniards.

S.S

12 the Sephardim: iberian Judaism
There was a type of Jewish culture that thought that they should be the ones that should rule other cultures. So when they didn't get the respect they wanted, they stormed a castle. With that the Jews thought that the christens would comply, but they didn't. They were also know for being bankers, the reason is that the christen thought that it was using god to make money. But the Islam's didn't think that, but were drove out. Lastly the Jewish had a inquisitor who judged people on their beliefs. As a result of religious persecution, Jews were exiled to Africa.

S.S

A well known king was famous for documenting everything for history. Games became very popular throughout Spain, ball games one of the first. There was a story where a king died from drinking too much cold water after a hot game. The second one was bullfighting. They even went as far as to breed the perfect bull. Finally there was chess, it originated south of Spain. They didn't like that it was of humans so they made their own design. They traded jewelry, tools, mettles, and other necessities that they had. The most valuable was Spanish sheep! The reason was no one else had the sheep and it wasn't itchy.

S.S Spanish history




Stone to bronze. This is about the Europeans and how it all started. They were simply cave people, and they are most famous for their drawing in a cave. They made those paintings by mashing iron, water and many other ingredients. One of the reasons they painted is because they thought that the painting on the ceiling was the thin plate of the spirit world to the human world. But when they didn't have their food they didn't starve, they went to fish.


The bronze. When the size Spaniards got brawls. They had lots of cattle, they also had chicken, sheep, horses and pigs. They had those for food for their family and for a living, which was incredible because they are the first cowboys! Which is amazing because we see those all the time out in the country! They also had copper that they use for plentiful things like shiny bowls, incredible durable swords and amazing other items that they used almost every day. But they were mostly for the economy and one step forward into the modern time. All those things to help with security and for health.
