In April 1998, Spain experienced a dangerous toxic spill that flowed into the Guadalquivir River, which flows into the Atlantic Ocean. They thought that it endangered many birds and other animals. This toxic mud covered farms, fields and orchards which caused the farmers to suffer enormous economic losses.

The Spanish Inquisition. The Spanish Civil War. Queen Isabella dispatched Columbus on his voyage of discovery--lots of historical events. The Spanish flu, however, did NOT originate there. Unlike other countries in the world at the time, the Spanish press was allowed to report on it which is how the name originated.

1. THE INDEPENDENCE OF SPAIN

2. In the year 711 - the Moors, or Muslims, invaded Spain and stayed there for 8 centuries. IMPORTANCE: the Moors had an enormous influence on Spain > they brought culture to the country, while the rest of Europe lived in the darkness of the Middle Ages and made important discoveries in medicine, math, and other sciences with the help of Christians and Jews.

3. In the year 1492 - Christopher Colombus left Spain with 3 caravels (ships) to discover a new and shorter route to India. IMPORTANCE: instead he ended up discovering the Americas > leading to the Spanish exploration and colonization of the continent > turning Spain into a rich and powerful empire of the world.
