Spain

This is the seventh century A.D. There is no electricity, so towns are silent and dark at night. There is no running water, unless a stream runs through a town. There are no telephones, no printing presses, no hospitals or antibiotics. Pregnancy and childbirth are dangerous. Maybe half of the children die before they grow up. The population is generally illiterate, so the skill of memorization is greatly prized. The average person can recite thousands of lines of poetry, much of it e is complex, and every word has a variety of meanings and shades of meanings, depending on the context. Philosophy is also a matter of great interest. Family and clan are extremely important. Marriage to cousins, rather than to non-relatives, is preferred, as a relative is someone known, and the family, as a whole, can control a member's behavior to some extent. A clan is not limited to one city or region-there may be member families in a variety of places. Travel is arduous. Outside towns, there are few roads. Most travel takes place along trails that have been used for millennia. People travel on foot, horseback, or camel back. They travel heavily armed, as many routes are controlled by outlaws. Honor in all aspects of life is of paramount importance. Although there are a few Christians and Jews, the majority of the population is pagan. Then God sends a prophet, and a new light illuminates western Arabia. This is the seventh century A.D. There is no electricity, so towns are silent and dark at night.

Spain's wealth acquired from the New World was considered to be a mixed blessing due to the speed at which the wealth was acquired. Spain gained its wealth so quickly, the result was massive inflation for ordinary Spaniards.

The War of the Spanish Succession (1700-1714) began with the death of Charles II, the last Hapsburg king of Spain, in 1700. He named as his heir the Duke of Anjou (Philip V) the grandson of Louis XIV of France. England, fearing a larger France, objected, as did Austria, which sought to gain possession of Spanish claims in Italy. Part of the war is called Queen Anne's war, because William III died as the war was getting under way.

The war involved Austria, Prussia, and Great Britain fighting against Spain and France. But the Spanish regions of Aragon also opposed Philip in favor of the Archduke Charles, who would have gained the throne under an English and French agreement to partition Spain. England and Austria attacked France and Spain, and although they prevailed militarily, political changes in England finally brought an end to the conflict. When Archduke Charles acquired a different throne as Holy Roman Emperor Charles VII, England also felt it unwise to help gain territory for Austria.

The hostilities ceased in 1713 with the Treaty of Utrecht. Phillip V, grandson of the King of France, was allowed to remain the King of Spain. However, he had to renounce his claim to the French throne. This prevented any possibility of France and Spain uniting under one monarch. France's power was diminished in Europe. Significantly, the concept of the balance in power in Europe was cemented. Other effects included the loss of a few territories by Spain and France to England and Austria. The notable cession of French Acadia to England presaged the eventual takeover of Canada a half century later, in the French and Indian War.
