Spain's decline under Philip II can be attributed to several factors, including military overreach and costly wars, such as the failed Spanish Armada in 1588 and the prolonged conflicts in the Netherlands. Additionally, economic challenges arose from reliance on American gold and silver, which led to inflation and neglect of domestic industries. Political mismanagement and a lack of effective leadership further weakened the Spanish state, contributing to its gradual decline as a dominant European power.
