When did Spain become part of the Roman Empire?

Southern Spain was conquered by the Romans during the Second Punic War which lasted from 218 to 201 BC; Northern Spain was conquered by Augustus in 19 BC.AnswerYes, Spain was invaded by the Romans in 218 BCE. While the Romans did control most of the peninsula, they also had many native allies (much like the Europeans during the colonization era) the Romans had also established Lisbon, the capital of Portugal, and many others. When the Roman Empire collapsed, emperor Justinian the 1st of Byzantium had a short-lived control of Hispania and gave it a new name, Spania.


What type of government did the founding fathers start?

They set up a "confederation." That is a sort of treaty arrangement between the 13 constituent republics. Most government was the local responsibility of each of the 13, with only a few powers ceded to the united government. The first confederation was replaced by a "federal" republic with a stronger but still limited center, outlined in the Constitution of 1787. The idea here was to balance power between the States and the center, so that public opinion could weigh in on the balance and prevent either from getting out of hand. Our government of today is far different than the one outlined in that Constitution. The civil war established the power of the central government to hold the Union together by force, while the 17th Amendment removed State government representation in the Senate. The "New Deal" completed the process. Now, every detail of American life can be and is regulated from Washington. James Madison called this sort of government a "consolidated" republic which he though inferior for lack of the balance mentioned earlier.
