Isabella I of Castile is known as "La Católica" (The Catholic) due to her strong support for the Catholic Church and her role in the unification of Spain under Christianity. Alongside her husband, Ferdinand II of Aragon, she completed the Reconquista by capturing Granada in 1492, which marked the end of Muslim rule in Spain. Additionally, she sponsored Christopher Columbus's voyages, leading to the spread of Christianity in the New World. Her devotion to the faith and efforts to promote Catholicism earned her this honorific title.
