Spain became a geopolitical entity in 1516 when Carlos I inherited and became the only monarch of the Kingdoms of Castile, Leon, and Aragon. That was the beginning of Spain and therefore the beginning of it's history. Before the unification the Iberian peninsula was a series of unrelated independent principalities. Since then it has always been known as Spain.
