In the 1600s, Spain was considered one of the most powerful countries in the world, largely due to its vast colonial empire in the Americas and its wealth from gold and silver extraction. The Spanish Empire dominated European politics and engaged in numerous conflicts, including the Thirty Years' War. However, by the late 17th century, France began to rise in power under the leadership of Louis XIV, marking a shift in European dominance.
