One of their significant military campaigns was against the Kingdom of Navarre in 1512, which they annexed into the Crown of Castile. Additionally, they supported the exploration and conquest of the Americas, leading to conflicts with Indigenous peoples. Their reign also marked the persecution of Muslims and Jews within Spain, culminating in the Alhambra Decree of 1492.
