The Kings (house of the Habsburgs) of Spain created an empire where the sun never set, they were the most powerful economy in the world, and their currency was used worldwide for trade. While the English and others dedicated themselves to the trade of pirates to steal from the Spanish, which meant the Spanish maintain a fleet to escort their ships, and ports, with its corresponding economic cost.
el actual símbolo del dólar USA proviene de la moneda española que se extendió por Norteamérica, las 2 barras del dólar vienen de las columnas de Hércules que aun siguen en el escudo de España donde pone Plus ultra, semper fidelis. Estos es, siempre fieles a las Españas de mas allá del mar
Ya viste, sacó el mensaje "nobody spect spanish Inquisition" y el autor del video ni siquiera se da cuenta que era una broma de los Monthy Piton. Y dice que fue la persecución mas sangrienta de Europa. No sabe de lo que habla.
When Monty Python parodied the Holy Office of the Inquisition ("Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"), they did so knowing that their British audience would see it as true. but... How much reality was there in that image? An example of recent dissemination: the number of persecutions for witchcraft. Historians Peter Leeson and Jacob Russ on witch hunts in post-medieval Europe. Germany stands out above the rest of the nations. Between 1300 and 1850 he accused or executed more than 16,000 people (mostly women) for witchcraft and other crimes. It is followed by Switzerland, with some 10,000, but with a higher court/population ratio (around 980 per 100,000 inhabitants). Scotland registered around 3,000, and a rate of 509 processes per 100,000 inhabitants. Together with Italy, Spain and France, they are the three countries where fewer witch trials were initiated (22, 23 and 5 per 100,000 inhabitants, respectively. Why? The Lutheran and Calvinist reforms opened a social gap. And with respect to the new lands (America) could not apply the Courts of the Holy Inquisition for not being believers.
MI interpretación de la caza de brujas es que fue la forma mas efectiva de conseguir que una población católica se volviese protestante, pues no hay nada peor para una familia que maten a sus mujeres, ya que la dejan sin capacidad reproductiva y la condenan a la extinción. Por eso era una herramienta efectiva para los protestantes, pero inutil para los católicos. De hecho, si te fijas, el femómeno practicamente se limita al periodo de las guerras de religión. El protestantismo fue un casus belli irresoluble contra el emperador Carlos V, que permitia a los principes alemanes legitimar su lucha contra el emperador, a la vez que enriquecerse con los tesoros acumulados por la Iglesia durante mas de 1000 años. Esto lo copio Enrique VIII para poder negar la bula papal que establecia el reparto del mundo entre España y Portugal. Todo es politica.
@@foreignreacts Yep, it starts being really wrong since he put Granada kingdom in the southwest, was in the southeast. Catalonia is in the north and not in the south. He claimed that all the external posesions in Europe came from habsburgs but Naples, Sicily and Sardinia were conquered by Aragon years ago. The spanish inquisition was really mild even from european standards and it makes sense since they already expelled moors and jews centuries ago while in some german states they were the most brutal ones. The inflation is oversimplified by saying "uhh they so bad so they had inflation" while the reality is yes, there were a lot of inflation but because of the constant wars against mainly the dutch who recently gained independence and wanted "Belgium", sending troops there was really expensive and for some reason the habsburgs kings didn't want to give up on that region, that's why the inflation. Now with more recent things, instead of industrialize we had to DE-industrialize to enter in the European union, mostly because of the new regulations and also competence. For now those are the things I remember that they are wrong, oh... and Catalonia's independence is mostly tried to push by politicians, not that much the population, I feel that maybe 30-40% would like the independence but not the rest since it could end very wrong. Last time in 2017 when the illegal referendum took place a lot of companies changed their location from Barcelona to Madrid scared by the unstability
@@foreignreacts Just as you cannot trust the video in general as it is written from a perspective that simplifies facts, forgets many and tells historical lies, you cannot trust the majority of comments that minimize the will for independence in Catalonia in 2017. Consistently for more For 10 years, the majority of the Catalan government was held by parties that called for independence. That is the objective data of the matter. We cannot know the real support in a real referendum at the moment because Spain does not allow it.
la cantidad de errores que tiene este video es mayor que aciertos, te recomiendo que mires ¨Memorias de pez¨ o otra pagina de contenidos española, para no hacer el ridiculo,. Saludos desde España.
Pues memorias de pez es cojonudo también. Mitos a machete, un poco menos que este pero poco menos. Los vídeos que hay que ver son los de gente que coge libros y documentos, no de veedores de Wikipedia.
Es mentira la inquisición española fue la menos sangrienta de europa ,de echo en España la inquisición condenó a muerte 5000 aproximadas de personas,en Alemania Italia Inglaterra fueron más de 50000 para arriba ,siempre la leyenda negra sobre España, información veraz de nuestra historia necesita para mejorar tu opinión
Since the oldest city in America is St. Agustine, 1565, is still heavily populated by Spaniard descendants, it's not too surprising. Add the rest of Florida, Louisiana, and western states of California, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Texas, there's a lot of history there. 20% of Americans are of Hispanic descent, they must remember something!
@@Universo700no, y seria diferente puesto que centro y sur america son parte de nuestra historia, y no hay fuente mas fiable que la española de esa epoca
That's what I wanted to say, in Europe only the "witch" hunt, was so much worse! And most of the ones happening in Spain weren't even done by the inquisition but the regular tribunals
First of all, thanks for your channel, it's very interesting. I think that would have been better if the history of Spain had not been explained from the point of view of an Anglo-Saxon. It pours into the history of Spain all the prejudices and typical topics that the Anglo-Saxon world has towards the Hispanic civilization. Full of inaccuracies and half-truths. Hence, the phrase "Particularly bloody, even more so than the rest of Europe". LIE!! Everyone in Europe was just as bloody. It's just that some believe they have moral superiority over others. Guess who? As for the matter of the great war, you can say that World War II began with the Spanish Civil War. It was in Spain where the totalitarian regimes collided for the first time in a war against the communist movements and against the liberal democracies. In fact, international brigades, Russians, Poles, Americans, etc., on the one hand, and German and Italian troops on the other, came to fight here. Greeting from Spain friend!
@@andyt8216 My dear fellow member: It is possible that you are right in that I am prejudiced. Perhaps because, since I was a child, I grew up seeing in Hollywood movies that the Spanish were the bad and cruel ones in the movie. The Arabs were the traitors, the Russians were bearded, anarchic drunkards, the Mexicans (and Latin Americans in general) lazy but murderers, the disciplined but cruel Germans, the Africans tribal and uncivilized beings, the treacherous and calculating Chinese... The rest of us have always been the ones bad. And I see that the rest of us, those of us who are not English or American, are not better, but we are not worse either. Now tell me, the value schemes on which American society is based, where do they come from? The religious, philosophers, scientists, historians who drew the main lines of the American way of life... Did they come out of nowhere? Well no. They were nourished by the Anglo-Saxon value schemes, for better and for worse, which came to the United States, already before their birth, from the United Kingdom and from Protestant Christian Europe. The main paradigms, from historical Pan-Germanism, through economic liberalism, liberal democracy, Lutheranism, Calvinism, evolutionism... (eugenics deserves a special mention, of disastrous memory, whose consequences still prevail today) all of this It was not born in the United States, although it was widely disseminated due to its undeniable capacity for cultural influence. And now a little bit of History, but from another point of view. It never hurts to contrast opinions. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries there were warlike, religious, cultural and racial clashes between Northern Europe (Reformists) and Southern Europe (Catholics). Just in the centuries in which the Americas were colonized. As is logical, the Spaniards of those years saw the Protestants as heretical sinners who did not recognize the authority of the Pope of Rome and, for their part, the Protestant Europeans created a distorted image of the Spanish as well. During those conflicts, the idea that the Spanish were a dogmatic, brutal and savage people was affirmed. A horror story was created in which all sorts of atrocities were blamed on Spain, from corruption to cannibalism. It was a way in which the English, Dutch and other belligerent nations tried to win on the moral level,.not on the military level, because in those centuries it was not possible for them. The distortion of the image of the enemy in times of conflict was neither good nor bad. It was one more strategy to win the war. The sad thing is that it still prevails today.
@@joseantonioladronreguero9955 May I point out in a shorter response that the British and American are not the same. That was the reason for my reply. It may have escaped you but the cold, calculating evil person in Hollywood films (if not Russian) etc has a British accent most of the time. I perhaps am an Anglo-Saxon..but also Norse Viking and perhaps Norman French. But I have nothing in common with American RUclips makers or film makers. It’s very very sad that you think there is no difference in mindset.
@@andyt8216 Dear colleague. I'm sorry you think I can't tell the difference between an American and a Brit. I can do it to the extent that I can distinguish between a Spaniard and a Peruvian. Obviously, there are differentiating nuances due to the sociological evolution of each country. However, as I tried to explain in my long reply to your comment (It seems that we are both missing things) we are influenced by currents of thought and scales of values that go back a long way and that, for better or worse, still prevail. The idea of evil Spaniards was created by the Netherlands in the during the Flemish wars against Iberian monarchy, later was spread and magnified by England during the numerous warlike confrontations between the two powers. Posteriorly, the same idea was inherited by US and was utilized to support ideologically the Manifest destiny theory and by press (mainly by the William Randolph Hearst's newspapers) in order to create an adverse opinion against Spain during the war between the US and Spain in 1898. From there it jumped to movies, schools texts and remains there. So it doesn't matter if someone who work in cultural diffusion, uncritically immersed in the main stream of thought, were born in Russia or if her grandparents were born in China. These people will repeat and magnify the existing prejudices in the society in which they function. Be it thought Hollywood, RUclips or thought the British Pinewood Studios. Personally, I have nothing against the British or the Americans people. What's more, I have British relatives and I love them a lot. They are also very proud of their origins, both in their Anglo-Saxon roots and their Iberian roots. Despite this, I do not like anything that false stereotypes are repeated and disseminated in which my country is falsely labelled and belittled, and I rebel against it. I also feel very proud of my country and my origins, as noble and respectable as yours, as are those of each person who live in this world. I am convinced that we both agree on the latter. Furthermore, I sincerely wish you and your people the best.
It's funny...the history of Spain seen from the perspective of someone who has no fucking idea of the real history of Spain unless he has seen it through the glasses of the Spanish black legend...
En cuanto al tema de la Inquisición...recordemos que por aquel entonces...( y más allá) , los países protestantes de Europa hacían razzias violentas contra otras religiones y perseguía a científicos y disidentes o condenaba a gente a ser colgados o a la hoguera por esas razones...y no eran España....EEUU tuvo sus propias vegüenzas ( no quería recordar los juicios de Salem, por ejemplo..) y aún las tiene.... ..y recordar también como España , en sus zonas de colonias, siempre tendió al mestizaje, no a la exterminación y segregación, como los colonos del norte de América ...
Casi, ... España no tuvo colonias, otro rasgo que nos diferencia de los racistas y genocidas anglos (holandeses, belgas, franceses, alemanes, gringos, árabes, rusos, ...) España era un reino con virreinatos, capitanías generales y provincias. Esto es territorios de ultramar (como Canarias) con ESPAÑOLES en iguales condiciones en todos los territorios fuera Europa, Africa, Améria o Asia. Eran territorios ESPAÑOLES, no DE España. Habitados por ESPAÑOLES no por esclavos ni sirvientes.
The video you're reacting to has quite a few inaccuracies, especially in the part related to the empire but I'll only focus on the two most clear ones and also clarify your doubts about Spain's non-participation in the two world wars. 1.- It wasn't Fernando of Aragon who sponsored Christopher Columbus' trip, it was Queen Isabel of Castile. King Fernando wasn't in favor of the idea. 2.- As bad as the Inquisition was, what is said in this video is part of the Black Legend of Spain. More people (heretics, supposed witches, etc.) died at the hands of secular courts in England or Germany than in Spain. But as seen in this video, it is a myth that still persists today. 3.- Spain remained neutral during the two World Wars, just like Switzerland. During WW2, in addition to Spain and Switzerland, Sweden, Ireland, Portugal, and Turkey also remained neutral.
Brief explanation of why we skipped the First and Second World Wars World War I, basically, the war started in 1914 far from us (France and Belgium mainly) and was stuck for 3 years on the same front fighting the French and British against the Germans and Austro-Hungarians in the same trenches. In 1917, the Americans arrived to help Britain and France and by November 1918 it was all over. In World War II we were able to see part of the action, before the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). General Franco´s fascist rebelion was supported by Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy against the Second Republic (the legal Government) . The Western democracies decided not to help the Spanish Republic, only the USSR and Worlwide brave antifascist volunteers The International Brigades came to help ( The Lincoln Brigade fom America between them) and in 3 years the fascist army defeated the republicans and 40 years of dictatorship and cruel repression began. When WWI started many Republican soldiers who had scaped from Franco´s repression, decided to join the Allies against Nazi Germany. Mainly in a French division commanded by General LeKlerc, the Spanish company 9 (La NUEVE) was crucial in the liberation of Paris in 1944. By the end of 1940, the III Reich ruled almost all Europe and Hitler wanted Spain to join him full time, all in, They set a meeting in Hendaya, in the border with Spain and the Ocuppied France, FRanco Kept Hitler Waiting and according to witnesses Hitler stressed out and left without anything tahat wanted very anoyed, one of Hitler`s Generals advise him to invade and force Spain to join and obey , Hitler replayed something about this : "No one can enter Spain without permission from the Spanish, they will mount guerrillas everywhere behind us all the time, diverting resources and efforts, the Spanish seem undisciplined and poorly organized, but they are proud and they are the only truly brave Mediterranean people. Never forget that they once owned the world." However, Franco send a Division of about 17.000 volunteers to fight only in the Russian front performing to a very high level. Something that not many people know, because the brave-ish but not very skillful General De Gaulle wanted it that way, is that Dietrich von Choltitz, Commander in Chief of the German Occupation Forces in Paris, surrendered to Amado Granell, a Spanish republican C.O. who had been fighting against fascism since 1936. .Amado and his platoon of spanish civil war veterans were the unit that took the german Head Quarters in Paris When the war was over by 1945, the naive spanish republicans though that now the allies will go to Spain and kick Franco out, but they were wrong, Winston S Churchil said " Franco is a problem, but now is a problem for the spanish, thanks for your service and f..c k off"
That is why where the Spanish colonized native populations continue to exist and where the English colonized they almost extinguished them, in addition, the black legend is a British invention for economic interests. I even find it curious that you, as an American, do not know who helped you a lot in your independence, with money, weapons and even blood, and won important battles against the British. Find out from more serious sources.
Much information is ignored, especially much that could be interesting for you to know since it affects your country of origin: Such as the role of Spain in achieving independence from the United States, the economic, military and weapons support (immense extension of the current USA, were Spanish territory, and the continental army was allowed to circulate freely through said territory, or the origin of the dollar and its symbol, derived from the [Spanish] silver “Real de a 8”) That practically all of the west and southwest of the The USA was Spanish territory (you just have to see the names of cities, rivers, geographical features, States, flags of some of them, city coat of arms, etc.) That territory became Mexico when it became independent, and later occupied by the USA after the Mexican-American War. Louisiana was previously Spanish to French, and of course Florida. Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines and the island of Guam were the last Spanish territories of the once immense empire) There is a lot of Spanish past in the United States, ignored out of ignorance, if not out of interest (England and the "enemies" of the Spanish empire made a great , long and laborious work undermining it and one of the ways is by discrediting/erasing countless data from the trail of history that you only know if you scratch enough beneath the surface)
Este chico es muy amable y se le ve simpático, pero tiene mala puntería al elegir los vídeos sobre España: el himno con Franco y ahora un vídeo de historia de España hecho por un inglés (¿qué puede salir mal?)
Spanish Inquisition is a misnomer or concept. “The holy office” or “Holy Inquisition” is a slow process created by the Roman curia of the Christian-Roman clergy: that is, it was an institution created by Rome (Holy See) and established in all Christian territory, including Spain. The inquisition was a religious court, whose purpose and objective was in fact to judge sins and heresies, which by definition could only come from those who officially professed the Catholic religion (the only Christian religion at that time, not counting that of the Horthodox, since the branches Protestant Christians had not yet emerged). Therefore, there is the misconception of only limiting the inquisition as “Spanish” and saying that it killed Jews or Muslims for being so, since in theory it judged Christians. Another thing is that Jews/Muslims would have converted to Christianity publicly but will keep their previous religion secret, so they could be judged and condemned because they were officially Christians and, by practicing another religion in secret, they could consider themselves infidels or heretics.
They had their own dictatorship over there but didn't fight with the others. Radical ideas and governments were kind of in vogue back then. Eventually history brushed aside, forgetting how common bloodshed was at times and how little is remembered of it today.
It is also wrong to call it (although it is a common and commonly accepted name) the “Spanish flu” because in reality it was neither caused nor came in any way from Spain, it is because it was the only affected country that was apparently open and transparent in the figures. of infections and deaths, and said flu was a pandemic that affected many countries and hundreds of thousands if not millions of people.
En realidad se originó en EEUU (ex combatientes), España al ser neutral fue el único país que publicó datos pero ni fue causa de ella ni mucho menos la originó, pero la leyenda negra no pierde oportunidad de ocultar lo positivo y exagerar o directamente inventar lo negativo de que acusarnos
Como de costumbre un montón de tópicos alejados de la realidad. La Inquisición (española, católica) fue la última en establecerse en Europa (y la última en derogarse) y evitó los errores, abusos, excesos y crueldades de los demás tribunales de su tiempo, civiles y religiosos que la precedieron. La Inquisición Española fue, con diferencia, el tribunal más justo, clemente, adelantado y humano de su tiempo (y algunos posteriores). Fue un MONUMENTO DEL DERECHO PROCESAL a diferencia de los bárbaros, torturadores sádicos y salvajes, auténticos linchamientos que fueron las inquisiciones protestantes de las que nadie habla (curioso) sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que quemaron diez veces más personas y torturaron sin tasa a miles de personas algo casi desconocido en la inquisición española pero es la católica (española) contra la que van todas las críticas (injustas) porque la mayoría desconocen que hubiera otras inquisiciones, protestantes, de cuyos crímenes y torturas, pero acusan a la española (católica) que no los cometió pero la única a la que se critica, se difama, se hacen documenales, series, películas, etc. sin fin llenas de exageraciones, errores, o simples mentiras. Como se conservan sus documentos sabemos todo de ella, sus jueces, casos, acusados, testimonios, fechas, sentencias, ... todo. En unos 350 años en 4 continentes (en un Imperio que no se ponía el Sol, de Europa, Africa, Asia y América) sentenció a muerte a unas 2.500 personas (aunque el número de ejecutados fue menor). Es decir, una media de unos 7 al año. EN EEUU siglos después siguen ejecutándose (sentenciando más) a muerte cada año una media de 17, es decir más del doble y en la actualidad, pero la Española era "oscuratista" "terrible", bla, bla, bla, bla,... mientras EEUU es el espejo de democracias, derechos, libertades, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, ... Lo curioso es que llevamos más de 500 años de LEYENDA NEGRA antiespañola y sus mentiras siguen vigentes incluso más que nunca (Google, Hollywood, Netflix, HBO, Disney, Marvel, National Gegraphic, BBC, ....) Era un tribunal, el español (católico), tan "terrible" que sus métodos, innovaciones, figuras, protocolos ... son los que usan HOY TODOS los tribunales CIVILIZADOS DEL MUNDO. Si algún día se ve ante un tribunal debería saber (y agradecer, por muchas mentiras que sobre ella y la Historia de España viertan) que fue la Inquisición la que le da tantas garantías y herramientas para defenderse, entre otros inventos e innovaciones que aplicó la Inquisición Española (católica) y hoy son habituales en todos los tribunales están: - abogado defensor, uno de los revoluicinarios inventos de la Inquisición española. - médico forense (idem) - programas de protección de testigos. - investigación y severas penas para testimonios falsos. - poder del reo de recusar al juez (jueces) - poder del reo de recusar testigos contrarios. - poder aportar el reo testigos favorables. - posibilidad de segunda instancia (si no está de acuerdo con sentencia podía recurrir a otro tribunal) - no se aceptaban denuncias anónimas. - para abrir una causa se precisaban, mínimo, 3 acusaciones bien fundadas e identificadas. - considerar, por primera vez, circunstancias atenuantes. - la española (católica) juzgaba los hechos pero también la intención. - SUPRIMIR LA TORTURA tan habitual en su tiempo en TODOS Los tribunales de Europa, civiles y religiosos. La Inquisición española la suprime mientras rige en toda Europa. - la sentencia se dictaba por un inquisidor, el obispo y autoridades civiles relevantes, las penas más severas debían ser por unanimidad para ser efectivas. Y es curioso que las inquisiciones PROTESTANTES, brutales, auténticos linchamientos sin garantía alguna para el reo, con sádicas torturas y ejecutando docenas de miles de personas al año sean casi desconocidas para el público. Estas inquisiciones protestantes (calvinista, anglicana, etc.) durante años torturaron salvajemente por una simple acusación en falso o una superstición y quemaban en la hoguera .... cuando la "fiebre" de las brujas llega a España desde Europa la Inquisición española (católica) hizo su trabajo (inquisición = investigación) y descubre que NO hay tales brujas y en España NO se quema una sola mujer mientras en Europa cada año arden a docenas de miles con sádicas torturas pero ... los oscurantistas y bárbaros son los españoles.
Que bien explicado! Quería añadir porque la historia de las "brujas" es súper interesante, que creo que sí que se ejecutaron varias personas aunque no se a ciencia cierta si acusadas de brujería o simplemente de herejía por creer en la brujería (ya que la inquisición española no creía en las brujas), y que la mayoría de condenas que hubo fueron a manos de tribunales civiles más que de la inquisición. Aparte de lo que ya dijo usted que no se puede comparar a los cientos de miles de muertes que causó la inquisición en el resto d Europa. La historia de Alonso de Salazar, el abogado de las brujas, en el caso de Zugarramurdi, es súper interesante! 😊
Let's see if these English tell only one truth... The Catholic Monarchs (Queen of Castile and King of Aragon, had a daughter named Juana who married a Habsburg, Felipe, and his son Carlos First of Spain (by his mother) and Fifth of Germany (by his father), started the House of Habsburg. The House of Normans (French) reigned in England from 911 to 1066 (7 French kings), jejeje
AAaand as always Basques are barely mentioned, I am sure that in the history of the UK scots are well represented (as they should). With al due respect, the Catalan independentist movement is tiny compared to the Basque one at least in my opinion and ahs caused many more headaches.
No " evitamos" la segunda guerra mundial ...la guerra civil española fue un anticipo sangriento que dejó al país destruido y 40 años en manos deos fascistas, cuando fuera todo ha Ia a acabado y vuelto a la normalidad....Tuvimos nuestra propia guerra sngrienta y horrible, gracias....☹️
De hecho se acabo convirtiendo en quién iba a ser el dictador (porque en el bando "republicano" la mayor discusión era cuando estableces un sistema como el soviético si durante (anarquistas y poum) o después (psoe y pce).
@@unaihernandez330 ...pues no...había muchas más corrientes que ya anticipaban a la izquierda europea. Y no olvidemos que fue un gobierno VOTADO DEMOCRATICAMENTE por mayoría, contra el que los muy " democráticos" fascistas cometieron traición. Traición contra su país para defender su dinero y privilegios, " por si acaso" los perdían....así de simple. Lo sé por quién lo vivió directamente..
De lo que resulta una dictadura elevada a través de la traición . No un "posible" o un " podría". No. Una DICTADURA a través de la TRAICION A SU PAIS. .
Pero es que además, si fuimos, al nivel que se pudo, hubo Españoles luchando en los dos bandos, La división Azul con los Alemanes en Rusia, y miles de republicanos que se unieron al Ejercito Rojo, Al Ejercito Británico, A la división LeclerK Francesa ( Que tomó Paris) .... A los partisanos Yugoslavos .... También en la Legión Extranjera Francesa, Total unos 10.000 españoles lucharon en las filas Aliadas, y 50.000 en los batallones de trabajo del ejercito francés, mas los 17.000 divisionarios azules en Rusia. Para ser un país neutral no está nada mal.
Por mucho que quieran cambiar, difamar, la historia de Espana, la monarquia, lo unico que denotan es la extrema envidia de la maravillosa E increible historia de Espana. El pais ma's evolucionado del mundo. El ma's alegre, uno de Los ma's cultos, uno de Los ma's bonitos, etc. Y con una increible historia, que ya quisieran muchos paises del mundo haber tenido una milesima parte, como es la historia de Espana.
This video has a lot of mistakes. 1) The Pre-Romsn Spain was more complex than that and the Celts were not that predominant, in fact, in the mayority of the today Portugal, it was a Indoeuropean culture not that influenced by the Celts or Iberians, and the Central Spain was a mix of tribes culturally considered as Celtiberians, a mix. 2) Spanish Inquisition was the last Inquisition created, nearly 1500, and was the first to ban the torture for pregnant women and children. And it was the least bloody, by the way. 3) The América conquist wasn't a party, of course, but later, the laws protected the natives. For example, the Burgos Laws (1512) protected the natives, their properties, their titles, gave them all works laws, etc. But before that, the Queen Isabel said, in 1503, that the natives were free citizens and the mixed marriage going to be protected, as she firmed in a law that year. Indeed, in her will, she gave the Castillian citizenship to all the Caribbean and American natives. 3) The Hasbourg dinasty it's full of shadows, but also some ligths. In their times Spain invented the actual calendary and the wheelchair, created a good bunch of Universities around the world, etc. 4) The Napoleon relationship with Spain was very complex. He tricks the King Carlos IV, one of the most stupid kings we had, and they were allys during a while. Then, Napoleón said he need to passed for Spain to Portugal. He received permission... And the rest it's well known, but in the video the autor despise the citizen answer, the people became in the real Spanish army and the first defeit for Napoleon was here, in Spain. 5) About the rest, well, a lot of things happened in the XIX and XX Spain, only I must to say that we had a first militar dictator in the early XX, Miguel Primo de Rivera. That surname it's infamous.
Si España no entró en la segunda guerra mundial fue porque, según Franco, sólo había reservas de comida para un día. Se vivía así después de que la segunda república de 1930 fracasara y los fascistas terminaran de romper el país durante 40 años y su ya de por sí endeble convivencia, algo que seguimos pagando y por lo que no terminamos de ser un estado serio al estar gobernados siempre por políticos que utilizan los rencores de la guerra civil... Lo peor no es que lo utilicen los políticos para sus planes, sino que la gente acepta su juego inmoral...
Y aunque hubieran llegado no cambia absolutamene nada. Si llegaron (que no hay pruebas) su llegada fue estéril para ellos y para los americanos. Llegaron los españoles y cambiaron el mundo (para bien) para siempre.
Uff, this IS a typical English versión of Spain History. Most of those things are false. For example, La Inquisición Española was by far The softest in Europe.
En este vídeo se ve todo lo que es la leyenda negra, me parece a mí que tendrás que ver otro que sea más digamos mas objetivo y no tan subjetivo y de índole anglosajona que no ganan ni aun queriendo. A seguir bien y a disfrutar.
Apreciado Foreign Reacts, te agradezco el que quieras saber sobre mi país España, pero te aconsejo busque información de fuentes más fidedignas y no videos hechos por algún Inglés, los ingleses salvo excepciones no tienen ni idea de la verdadera Historia Española ni de la Historia Hispánica o imperio Español y menos aún te van a contar de cuando ayudo España a Norteamérica a independizarse de Inglaterra, te dejo un enlace en el que podrás aprender un poco de la verdadera historia de España. La HISTORIA DE ESPAÑA en 15 minutos | El RESUMEN definitivo: ruclips.net/video/90H1JvKT5tI/видео.html
The video has many gaps and historical errors.... if the person who made this video was my History student he would get a fail. My advice is that you watch the history of Spain by era, the video skips fundamental things to understand current Spain. I would advise you to look at the story of Juan de Oñate, he crossed the Rio Grande and celebrated Thanksgiving long before the British. You also have a spectacular story like that of Cabeza de Vaca and his journey through the south of the USA. To finish, look at the millions of Native Americans who lived in lands of Spanish conquest and look at the rest of the empires, the Spanish did not exterminate natives like the British and French did, the Geronimo Indian spoke Spanish in addition to his native language, the only thing What he asked of the English was to respect the agreements made with the Spanish to live and dispose of their lands.... the British exterminated them all, well, except for a couple of thousand who were put in concentration camps called reserves... . Greetings
El video tiene muchas lagunas y errores historicos.... si el que hizo este video fuera mi alumno de Historia se llevaria un suspenso. Mi consejo es que vayas viendo la historia de España por epocas, en el video se salta cosas fundamentales para entender la actual España. Te aconsejaria que miraras la historia de Juan de Oñate, cruzo el rio Bravo y realizo el dia de accion de gracias mucho antes que los britanicos. Tambien tienes una historia espectacular como la de Cabeza de Vaca y su travesia por el sur de USA. Para terminar, mira los millones de nativos americanos que vivien en tierras de conquista española y mira la del resto de imperios, los españoles no exterminaron nativos como si lo hicieron Britanicos y Franceses, el indio Geronimo hablaba español ademas de su lengua nativa, lo unico que pidio a los ingleses fue respetar los acuerdos hechos con los españoles para vivir y disponer de sus tierras.... los britanicos los exterminaron a todos, bueno, menos a un par de miles que metieron en campos de concentracion llamados reservas.... Saludos
Convertirse o morir...era lo que cada religión exigía en el periodo de conquista ..la conquista de los musulmanes fue igual...convertirse a la religión musulmana o morir....y paso en todas partes....era lo habitual en las religiones patriarcales....o conmigo o contra mi....después, una vez pasado el tiempo, había pequeñas comunidades de cristianos en territorios controlados por los árabes, cerca de zonas cristianas, como los mozárabes y se permitió una cierta independencia religiosa a nivel personal a " las gentes del libro", ya que Mahoma había sacado la mayor parte de su idea religiosa del judaísmo y el cristianismo ....pero en el primer lugar, durante la conquista, la eleccion siempre era esa....en todas partes y con todas las religiones ...los romanos de Cesar intentaron acabar con los druidas ...la gente es así...🙄
Spain civil war was between fascists and democrats, fascists won and ruled during 40 years until the dictator Franco died. Nobody in europe cared about this after WW2, which is a disgrace for the republicans. There was no trial for the horrors of the civil war or the dictatorship that officially ended in 1974, where +500k people were murdered for dissidents. Catalonia and Euskadi (Basque Country) had historically their own institutions, language and culture, but Spain abolished them several times with dictators as Primo de Rivera or some kings. All fascists after 40 years kept all their privileges, money and reputation, and are still protected in Spain, as you can see some ultra far right parties with a lot of votes and support.
Vaya mierda de video, solo es cierto el 15% de lo que cuenta. Toda una apología de la Leyenda Negra contra España. Si quieres conocer la historia de España con este vídeo no conocerás nada.
The Kings (house of the Habsburgs) of Spain created an empire where the sun never set, they were the most powerful economy in the world, and their currency was used worldwide for trade. While the English and others dedicated themselves to the trade of pirates to steal from the Spanish, which meant the Spanish maintain a fleet to escort their ships, and ports, with its corresponding economic cost.
el actual símbolo del dólar USA proviene de la moneda española que se extendió por Norteamérica, las 2 barras del dólar vienen de las columnas de Hércules que aun siguen en el escudo de España donde pone Plus ultra, semper fidelis. Estos es, siempre fieles a las Españas de mas allá del mar
Soy español, veo mucha leyenda negra en este video, muchas mentiras sobre todo en la época del imperio.
Lo habitual, el relato aún hoy de Google, Hollywood, Netflix, HBO, DIsney, Marvel, National Geographic, BBC, ... incluso ahora de la TVE, etc.
Ya viste, sacó el mensaje "nobody spect spanish Inquisition" y el autor del video ni siquiera se da cuenta que era una broma de los Monthy Piton. Y dice que fue la persecución mas sangrienta de Europa. No sabe de lo que habla.
@@guaita2totalmente. Compara la inquisición española con la alemana....ahí sí que vas a ver sangre.
When Monty Python parodied the Holy Office of the Inquisition ("Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition!"), they did so knowing that their British audience would see it as true. but... How much reality was there in that image? An example of recent dissemination: the number of persecutions for witchcraft. Historians Peter Leeson and Jacob Russ on witch hunts in post-medieval Europe. Germany stands out above the rest of the nations. Between 1300 and 1850 he accused or executed more than 16,000 people (mostly women) for witchcraft and other crimes. It is followed by Switzerland, with some 10,000, but with a higher court/population ratio (around 980 per 100,000 inhabitants). Scotland registered around 3,000, and a rate of 509 processes per 100,000 inhabitants. Together with Italy, Spain and France, they are the three countries where fewer witch trials were initiated (22, 23 and 5 per 100,000 inhabitants, respectively. Why? The Lutheran and Calvinist reforms opened a social gap. And with respect to the new lands (America) could not apply the Courts of the Holy Inquisition for not being believers.
MI interpretación de la caza de brujas es que fue la forma mas efectiva de conseguir que una población católica se volviese protestante, pues no hay nada peor para una familia que maten a sus mujeres, ya que la dejan sin capacidad reproductiva y la condenan a la extinción. Por eso era una herramienta efectiva para los protestantes, pero inutil para los católicos. De hecho, si te fijas, el femómeno practicamente se limita al periodo de las guerras de religión. El protestantismo fue un casus belli irresoluble contra el emperador Carlos V, que permitia a los principes alemanes legitimar su lucha contra el emperador, a la vez que enriquecerse con los tesoros acumulados por la Iglesia durante mas de 1000 años. Esto lo copio Enrique VIII para poder negar la bula papal que establecia el reparto del mundo entre España y Portugal. Todo es politica.
Bruh 💀💀💀
Half of the things said in this video are wrong, very wrong
Really?
@@foreignreacts Yep, it starts being really wrong since he put Granada kingdom in the southwest, was in the southeast. Catalonia is in the north and not in the south. He claimed that all the external posesions in Europe came from habsburgs but Naples, Sicily and Sardinia were conquered by Aragon years ago.
The spanish inquisition was really mild even from european standards and it makes sense since they already expelled moors and jews centuries ago while in some german states they were the most brutal ones. The inflation is oversimplified by saying "uhh they so bad so they had inflation" while the reality is yes, there were a lot of inflation but because of the constant wars against mainly the dutch who recently gained independence and wanted "Belgium", sending troops there was really expensive and for some reason the habsburgs kings didn't want to give up on that region, that's why the inflation.
Now with more recent things, instead of industrialize we had to DE-industrialize to enter in the European union, mostly because of the new regulations and also competence.
For now those are the things I remember that they are wrong, oh... and Catalonia's independence is mostly tried to push by politicians, not that much the population, I feel that maybe 30-40% would like the independence but not the rest since it could end very wrong. Last time in 2017 when the illegal referendum took place a lot of companies changed their location from Barcelona to Madrid scared by the unstability
@@foreignreacts Just as you cannot trust the video in general as it is written from a perspective that simplifies facts, forgets many and tells historical lies, you cannot trust the majority of comments that minimize the will for independence in Catalonia in 2017. Consistently for more For 10 years, the majority of the Catalan government was held by parties that called for independence. That is the objective data of the matter.
We cannot know the real support in a real referendum at the moment because Spain does not allow it.

Since the oldest city in America is St. Agustine, 1565, is still heavily populated by Spaniard descendants, it's not too surprising. Add the rest of Florida, Louisiana, and western states of California, New Mexico, Colorado, Arizona, and Texas, there's a lot of history there. 20% of Americans are of Hispanic descent, they must remember something!

SPAIN IS GOT....this vídeo is a England edition
Actually the inquisition was one of the less bloody, with 300 deads
That's what I wanted to say, in Europe only the "witch" hunt, was so much worse! And most of the ones happening in Spain weren't even done by the inquisition but the regular tribunals
Witch hunt in Spain: 25000
That betwen 1500 and 1700
First of all, thanks for your channel, it's very interesting. I think that would have been better if the history of Spain had not been explained from the point of view of an Anglo-Saxon. It pours into the history of Spain all the prejudices and typical topics that the Anglo-Saxon world has towards the Hispanic civilization. Full of inaccuracies and half-truths. Hence, the phrase "Particularly bloody, even more so than the rest of Europe". LIE!! Everyone in Europe was just as bloody. It's just that some believe they have moral superiority over others. Guess who?
As for the matter of the great war, you can say that World War II began with the Spanish Civil War. It was in Spain where the totalitarian regimes collided for the first time in a war against the communist movements and against the liberal democracies. In fact, international brigades, Russians, Poles, Americans, etc., on the one hand, and German and Italian troops on the other, came to fight here.
Greeting from Spain friend!
And you have your own prejudices. Why are you talking about Anglo-Saxons? This is simply an American video, nothing more.
@@andyt8216 My dear fellow member: It is possible that you are right in that I am prejudiced. Perhaps because, since I was a child, I grew up seeing in Hollywood movies that the Spanish were the bad and cruel ones in the movie. The Arabs were the traitors, the Russians were bearded, anarchic drunkards, the Mexicans (and Latin Americans in general) lazy but murderers, the disciplined but cruel Germans, the Africans tribal and uncivilized beings, the treacherous and calculating Chinese... The rest of us have always been the ones bad. And I see that the rest of us, those of us who are not English or American, are not better, but we are not worse either. Now tell me, the value schemes on which American society is based, where do they come from? The religious, philosophers, scientists, historians who drew the main lines of the American way of life... Did they come out of nowhere? Well no. They were nourished by the Anglo-Saxon value schemes, for better and for worse, which came to the United States, already before their birth, from the United Kingdom and from Protestant Christian Europe. The main paradigms, from historical Pan-Germanism, through economic liberalism, liberal democracy, Lutheranism, Calvinism, evolutionism... (eugenics deserves a special mention, of disastrous memory, whose consequences still prevail today) all of this It was not born in the United States, although it was widely disseminated due to its undeniable capacity for cultural influence. And now a little bit of History, but from another point of view. It never hurts to contrast opinions. In the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries there were warlike, religious, cultural and racial clashes between Northern Europe (Reformists) and Southern Europe (Catholics). Just in the centuries in which the Americas were colonized. As is logical, the Spaniards of those years saw the Protestants as heretical sinners who did not recognize the authority of the Pope of Rome and, for their part, the Protestant Europeans created a distorted image of the Spanish as well. During those conflicts, the idea that the Spanish were a dogmatic, brutal and savage people was affirmed. A horror story was created in which all sorts of atrocities were blamed on Spain, from corruption to cannibalism. It was a way in which the English, Dutch and other belligerent nations tried to win on the moral level,.not on the military level, because in those centuries it was not possible for them. The distortion of the image of the enemy in times of conflict was neither good nor bad. It was one more strategy to win the war. The sad thing is that it still prevails today.
@@joseantonioladronreguero9955 May I point out in a shorter response that the British and American are not the same. That was the reason for my reply. It may have escaped you but the cold, calculating evil person in Hollywood films (if not Russian) etc has a British accent most of the time. I perhaps am an Anglo-Saxon..but also Norse Viking and perhaps Norman French. But I have nothing in common with American RUclips makers or film makers. It’s very very sad that you think there is no difference in mindset.
@@andyt8216 Dear colleague. I'm sorry you think I can't tell the difference between an American and a Brit. I can do it to the extent that I can distinguish between a Spaniard and a Peruvian. Obviously, there are differentiating nuances due to the sociological evolution of each country. However, as I tried to explain in my long reply to your comment (It seems that we are both missing things) we are influenced by currents of thought and scales of values that go back a long way and that, for better or worse, still prevail. The idea of evil Spaniards was created by the Netherlands in the during the Flemish wars against Iberian monarchy, later was spread and magnified by England during the numerous warlike confrontations between the two powers. Posteriorly, the same idea was inherited by US and was utilized to support ideologically the Manifest destiny theory and by press (mainly by the William Randolph Hearst's newspapers) in order to create an adverse opinion against Spain during the war between the US and Spain in 1898. From there it jumped to movies, schools texts and remains there. So it doesn't matter if someone who work in cultural diffusion, uncritically immersed in the main stream of thought, were born in Russia or if her grandparents were born in China. These people will repeat and magnify the existing prejudices in the society in which they function. Be it thought Hollywood, RUclips or thought the British Pinewood Studios.
Personally, I have nothing against the British or the Americans people. What's more, I have British relatives and I love them a lot. They are also very proud of their origins, both in their Anglo-Saxon roots and their Iberian roots.
Despite this, I do not like anything that false stereotypes are repeated and disseminated in which my country is falsely labelled and belittled, and I rebel against it. I also feel very proud of my country and my origins, as noble and respectable as yours, as are those of each person who live in this world. I am convinced that we both agree on the latter.
Furthermore, I sincerely wish you and your people the best.

Muy bien 🙄 lo que no sabemos, nos lo inventamos!!! 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🙆🏻🙆🏻🙆🏻
It's funny...the history of Spain seen from the perspective of someone who has no fucking idea of the real history of Spain unless he has seen it through the glasses of the Spanish black legend...
En cuanto al tema de la Inquisición...recordemos que por aquel entonces...( y más allá) , los países protestantes de Europa hacían razzias violentas contra otras religiones y perseguía a científicos y disidentes o condenaba a gente a ser colgados o a la hoguera por esas razones...y no eran España....EEUU tuvo sus propias vegüenzas ( no quería recordar los juicios de Salem, por ejemplo..) y aún las tiene....
..y recordar también como España , en sus zonas de colonias, siempre tendió al mestizaje, no a la exterminación y segregación, como los colonos del norte de América ...
Casi, ... España no tuvo colonias, otro rasgo que nos diferencia de los racistas y genocidas anglos (holandeses, belgas, franceses, alemanes, gringos, árabes, rusos, ...)
España era un reino con virreinatos, capitanías generales y provincias. Esto es territorios de ultramar (como Canarias) con ESPAÑOLES en iguales condiciones en todos los territorios fuera Europa, Africa, Améria o Asia. Eran territorios ESPAÑOLES, no DE España. Habitados por ESPAÑOLES no por esclavos ni sirvientes.
This has many errors
The video you're reacting to has quite a few inaccuracies, especially in the part related to the empire but I'll only focus on the two most clear ones and also clarify your doubts about Spain's non-participation in the two world wars. 1.- It wasn't Fernando of Aragon who sponsored Christopher Columbus' trip, it was Queen Isabel of Castile. King Fernando wasn't in favor of the idea. 2.- As bad as the Inquisition was, what is said in this video is part of the Black Legend of Spain. More people (heretics, supposed witches, etc.) died at the hands of secular courts in England or Germany than in Spain. But as seen in this video, it is a myth that still persists today. 3.- Spain remained neutral during the two World Wars, just like Switzerland. During WW2, in addition to Spain and Switzerland, Sweden, Ireland, Portugal, and Turkey also remained neutral.
Brief explanation of why we skipped the First and Second World Wars
World War I, basically, the war started in 1914 far from us (France and Belgium mainly) and was stuck for 3 years on the same front fighting the French and British against the Germans and Austro-Hungarians in the same trenches. In 1917, the Americans arrived to help Britain and France and by November 1918 it was all over.
In World War II we were able to see part of the action, before the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939). General Franco´s fascist rebelion was supported by Nazi Germany and Fascist Italy against the Second Republic (the legal Government) . The Western democracies decided not to help the Spanish Republic, only the USSR and Worlwide brave antifascist volunteers The International Brigades came to help ( The Lincoln Brigade fom America between them) and in 3 years the fascist army defeated the republicans and 40 years of dictatorship and cruel repression began.
When WWI started many Republican soldiers who had scaped from Franco´s repression, decided to join the Allies against Nazi Germany. Mainly in a French division commanded by General LeKlerc, the Spanish company 9 (La NUEVE) was crucial in the liberation of Paris in 1944.
By the end of 1940, the III Reich ruled almost all Europe and Hitler wanted Spain to join him full time, all in, They set a meeting in Hendaya, in the border with Spain and the Ocuppied France, FRanco Kept Hitler Waiting and according to witnesses Hitler stressed out and left without anything tahat wanted very anoyed, one of Hitler`s Generals advise him to invade and force Spain to join and obey , Hitler replayed something about this :
"No one can enter Spain without permission from the Spanish, they will mount guerrillas everywhere behind us all the time, diverting resources and efforts, the Spanish seem undisciplined and poorly organized, but they are proud and they are the only truly brave Mediterranean people. Never forget that they once owned the world." However, Franco send a Division of about 17.000 volunteers to fight only in the Russian front performing to a very high level.
Something that not many people know, because the brave-ish but not very skillful General De Gaulle wanted it that way, is that Dietrich von Choltitz, Commander in Chief of the German Occupation Forces in Paris, surrendered to Amado Granell, a Spanish republican C.O. who had been fighting against fascism since 1936. .Amado and his platoon of spanish civil war veterans were the unit that took the german Head Quarters in Paris
When the war was over by 1945, the naive spanish republicans though that now the allies will go to Spain and kick Franco out, but they were wrong, Winston S Churchil said " Franco is a problem, but now is a problem for the spanish, thanks for your service and f..c k off"

That is why where the Spanish colonized native populations continue to exist and where the English colonized they almost extinguished them, in addition, the black legend is a British invention for economic interests. I even find it curious that you, as an American, do not know who helped you a lot in your independence, with money, weapons and even blood, and won important battles against the British. Find out from more serious sources.
Much information is ignored, especially much that could be interesting for you to know since it affects your country of origin:
Such as the role of Spain in achieving independence from the United States, the economic, military and weapons support (immense extension of the current USA, were Spanish territory, and the continental army was allowed to circulate freely through said territory, or the origin of the dollar and its symbol, derived from the [Spanish] silver “Real de a 8”)
That practically all of the west and southwest of the The USA was Spanish territory (you just have to see the names of cities, rivers, geographical features, States, flags of some of them, city coat of arms, etc.)
That territory became Mexico when it became independent, and later occupied by the USA after the Mexican-American War.
Louisiana was previously Spanish to French, and of course Florida.
Cuba, Puerto Rico, the Philippines and the island of Guam were the last Spanish territories of the once immense empire)
There is a lot of Spanish past in the United States, ignored out of ignorance, if not out of interest (England and the "enemies" of the Spanish empire made a great , long and laborious work undermining it and one of the ways is by discrediting/erasing countless data from the trail of history that you only know if you scratch enough beneath the surface)
Este chico es muy amable y se le ve simpático, pero tiene mala puntería al elegir los vídeos sobre España: el himno con Franco y ahora un vídeo de historia de España hecho por un inglés (¿qué puede salir mal?)
The narrator was 100% American. Don’t blame us.
You guessed right! Spain avoided IIWW because just before there had been the civil wat
Spanish Inquisition is a misnomer or concept.
“The holy office” or “Holy Inquisition” is a slow process created by the Roman curia of the Christian-Roman clergy: that is, it was an institution created by Rome (Holy See) and established in all Christian territory, including Spain.
The inquisition was a religious court, whose purpose and objective was in fact to judge sins and heresies, which by definition could only come from those who officially professed the Catholic religion (the only Christian religion at that time, not counting that of the Horthodox, since the branches Protestant Christians had not yet emerged).
Therefore, there is the misconception of only limiting the inquisition as “Spanish” and saying that it killed Jews or Muslims for being so, since in theory it judged Christians.
Another thing is that Jews/Muslims would have converted to Christianity publicly but will keep their previous religion secret, so they could be judged and condemned because they were officially Christians and, by practicing another religion in secret, they could consider themselves infidels or heretics.
an Anglo-Saxon view, that any resemblance to reality is pure consciousness.
They had their own dictatorship over there but didn't fight with the others. Radical ideas and governments were kind of in vogue back then. Eventually history brushed aside, forgetting how common bloodshed was at times and how little is remembered of it today.
This english narrator has not read Don Quixote yet.
It is also wrong to call it (although it is a common and commonly accepted name) the “Spanish flu” because in reality it was neither caused nor came in any way from Spain, it is because it was the only affected country that was apparently open and transparent in the figures. of infections and deaths, and said flu was a pandemic that affected many countries and hundreds of thousands if not millions of people.
En realidad se originó en EEUU (ex combatientes), España al ser neutral fue el único país que publicó datos pero ni fue causa de ella ni mucho menos la originó, pero la leyenda negra no pierde oportunidad de ocultar lo positivo y exagerar o directamente inventar lo negativo de que acusarnos
Como de costumbre un montón de tópicos alejados de la realidad.
La Inquisición (española, católica) fue la última en establecerse en Europa (y la última en derogarse) y evitó los errores, abusos, excesos y crueldades de los demás tribunales de su tiempo, civiles y religiosos que la precedieron. La Inquisición Española fue, con diferencia, el tribunal más justo, clemente, adelantado y humano de su tiempo (y algunos posteriores). Fue un MONUMENTO DEL DERECHO PROCESAL a diferencia de los bárbaros, torturadores sádicos y salvajes, auténticos linchamientos que fueron las inquisiciones protestantes de las que nadie habla (curioso) sobre todo teniendo en cuenta que quemaron diez veces más personas y torturaron sin tasa a miles de personas algo casi desconocido en la inquisición española pero es la católica (española) contra la que van todas las críticas (injustas) porque la mayoría desconocen que hubiera otras inquisiciones, protestantes, de cuyos crímenes y torturas, pero acusan a la española (católica) que no los cometió pero la única a la que se critica, se difama, se hacen documenales, series, películas, etc. sin fin llenas de exageraciones, errores, o simples mentiras.
Como se conservan sus documentos sabemos todo de ella, sus jueces, casos, acusados, testimonios, fechas, sentencias, ... todo. En unos 350 años en 4 continentes (en un Imperio que no se ponía el Sol, de Europa, Africa, Asia y América) sentenció a muerte a unas 2.500 personas (aunque el número de ejecutados fue menor). Es decir, una media de unos 7 al año. EN EEUU siglos después siguen ejecutándose (sentenciando más) a muerte cada año una media de 17, es decir más del doble y en la actualidad, pero la Española era "oscuratista" "terrible", bla, bla, bla, bla,... mientras EEUU es el espejo de democracias, derechos, libertades, bla, bla, bla, bla, bla, ...
Lo curioso es que llevamos más de 500 años de LEYENDA NEGRA antiespañola y sus mentiras siguen vigentes incluso más que nunca (Google, Hollywood, Netflix, HBO, Disney, Marvel, National Gegraphic, BBC, ....)
Era un tribunal, el español (católico), tan "terrible" que sus métodos, innovaciones, figuras, protocolos ... son los que usan HOY TODOS los tribunales CIVILIZADOS DEL MUNDO. Si algún día se ve ante un tribunal debería saber (y agradecer, por muchas mentiras que sobre ella y la Historia de España viertan) que fue la Inquisición la que le da tantas garantías y herramientas para defenderse, entre otros inventos e innovaciones que aplicó la Inquisición Española (católica) y hoy son habituales en todos los tribunales están:
- abogado defensor, uno de los revoluicinarios inventos de la Inquisición española.
- médico forense (idem)
- programas de protección de testigos.
- investigación y severas penas para testimonios falsos.
- poder del reo de recusar al juez (jueces)
- poder del reo de recusar testigos contrarios.
- poder aportar el reo testigos favorables.
- posibilidad de segunda instancia (si no está de acuerdo con sentencia podía recurrir a otro tribunal)
- no se aceptaban denuncias anónimas.
- para abrir una causa se precisaban, mínimo, 3 acusaciones bien fundadas e identificadas.
- considerar, por primera vez, circunstancias atenuantes.
- la española (católica) juzgaba los hechos pero también la intención.
- SUPRIMIR LA TORTURA tan habitual en su tiempo en TODOS Los tribunales de Europa, civiles y religiosos. La Inquisición española la suprime mientras rige en toda Europa.
- la sentencia se dictaba por un inquisidor, el obispo y autoridades civiles relevantes, las penas más severas debían ser por unanimidad para ser efectivas.
Y es curioso que las inquisiciones PROTESTANTES, brutales, auténticos linchamientos sin garantía alguna para el reo, con sádicas torturas y ejecutando docenas de miles de personas al año sean casi desconocidas para el público. Estas inquisiciones protestantes (calvinista, anglicana, etc.) durante años torturaron salvajemente por una simple acusación en falso o una superstición y quemaban en la hoguera ....
cuando la "fiebre" de las brujas llega a España desde Europa la Inquisición española (católica) hizo su trabajo (inquisición = investigación) y descubre que NO hay tales brujas y en España NO se quema una sola mujer mientras en Europa cada año arden a docenas de miles con sádicas torturas pero ... los oscurantistas y bárbaros son los españoles.
Que bien explicado! Quería añadir porque la historia de las "brujas" es súper interesante, que creo que sí que se ejecutaron varias personas aunque no se a ciencia cierta si acusadas de brujería o simplemente de herejía por creer en la brujería (ya que la inquisición española no creía en las brujas), y que la mayoría de condenas que hubo fueron a manos de tribunales civiles más que de la inquisición. Aparte de lo que ya dijo usted que no se puede comparar a los cientos de miles de muertes que causó la inquisición en el resto d Europa. La historia de Alonso de Salazar, el abogado de las brujas, en el caso de Zugarramurdi, es súper interesante! 😊
I'm Spanish and this is really a very very bad history lesson
Let's see if these English tell only one truth... The Catholic Monarchs (Queen of Castile and King of Aragon, had a daughter named Juana who married a Habsburg, Felipe, and his son Carlos First of Spain (by his mother) and Fifth of Germany (by his father), started the House of Habsburg. The House of Normans (French) reigned in England from 911 to 1066 (7 French kings), jejeje
No! Started in 1066… more like - ended sometime in the 14th century (as a French speaking elite)
And do not forget the Vikings King Kanute of Denmark first in unite all de angloxaxons little kingdoms.
We didn't avoid anything. We just created our own war, but anyone wanna join so we played it alone
Hahaha, you did it well, but half os the info in the animated video was wrong.
AAaand as always Basques are barely mentioned, I am sure that in the history of the UK scots are well represented (as they should). With al due respect, the Catalan independentist movement is tiny compared to the Basque one at least in my opinion and ahs caused many more headaches.
So we avoided ww2 by finishing a civil war. Genius idea, wasn’t it?
No " evitamos" la segunda guerra mundial ...la guerra civil española fue un anticipo sangriento que dejó al país destruido y 40 años en manos deos fascistas, cuando fuera todo ha Ia a acabado y vuelto a la normalidad....Tuvimos nuestra propia guerra sngrienta y horrible, gracias....☹️
De hecho se acabo convirtiendo en quién iba a ser el dictador (porque en el bando "republicano" la mayor discusión era cuando estableces un sistema como el soviético si durante (anarquistas y poum) o después (psoe y pce).
@@unaihernandez330 ...pues no...había muchas más corrientes que ya anticipaban a la izquierda europea. Y no olvidemos que fue un gobierno VOTADO DEMOCRATICAMENTE por mayoría, contra el que los muy " democráticos" fascistas cometieron traición. Traición contra su país para defender su dinero y privilegios, " por si acaso" los perdían....así de simple. Lo sé por quién lo vivió directamente..
De lo que resulta una dictadura elevada a través de la traición . No un "posible" o un " podría". No. Una DICTADURA a través de la TRAICION A SU PAIS. .
Pero es que además, si fuimos, al nivel que se pudo, hubo Españoles luchando en los dos bandos, La división Azul con los Alemanes en Rusia, y miles de republicanos que se unieron al Ejercito Rojo, Al Ejercito Británico, A la división LeclerK Francesa ( Que tomó Paris) .... A los partisanos Yugoslavos .... También en la Legión Extranjera Francesa, Total unos 10.000 españoles lucharon en las filas Aliadas, y 50.000 en los batallones de trabajo del ejercito francés, mas los 17.000 divisionarios azules en Rusia. Para ser un país neutral no está nada mal.
Por mucho que quieran cambiar, difamar, la historia de Espana, la monarquia, lo unico que denotan es la extrema envidia de la maravillosa E increible historia de Espana.

This video has a lot of mistakes.
1) The Pre-Romsn Spain was more complex than that and the Celts were not that predominant, in fact, in the mayority of the today Portugal, it was a Indoeuropean culture not that influenced by the Celts or Iberians, and the Central Spain was a mix of tribes culturally considered as Celtiberians, a mix.
2) Spanish Inquisition was the last Inquisition created, nearly 1500, and was the first to ban the torture for pregnant women and children. And it was the least bloody, by the way.
3) The América conquist wasn't a party, of course, but later, the laws protected the natives. For example, the Burgos Laws (1512) protected the natives, their properties, their titles, gave them all works laws, etc.
But before that, the Queen Isabel said, in 1503, that the natives were free citizens and the mixed marriage going to be protected, as she firmed in a law that year. Indeed, in her will, she gave the Castillian citizenship to all the Caribbean and American natives.
3) The Hasbourg dinasty it's full of shadows, but also some ligths. In their times Spain invented the actual calendary and the wheelchair, created a good bunch of Universities around the world, etc.
4) The Napoleon relationship with Spain was very complex. He tricks the King Carlos IV, one of the most stupid kings we had, and they were allys during a while. Then, Napoleón said he need to passed for Spain to Portugal. He received permission... And the rest it's well known, but in the video the autor despise the citizen answer, the people became in the real Spanish army and the first defeit for Napoleon was here, in Spain.
5) About the rest, well, a lot of things happened in the XIX and XX Spain, only I must to say that we had a first militar dictator in the early XX, Miguel Primo de Rivera. That surname it's infamous.
Spain was not neutral durong WW2, it was a non-belligerent country. That’s different.
Si España no entró en la segunda guerra mundial fue porque, según Franco, sólo había reservas de comida para un día. Se vivía así después de que la segunda república de 1930 fracasara y los fascistas terminaran de romper el país durante 40 años y su ya de por sí endeble convivencia, algo que seguimos pagando y por lo que no terminamos de ser un estado serio al estar gobernados siempre por políticos que utilizan los rencores de la guerra civil... Lo peor no es que lo utilicen los políticos para sus planes, sino que la gente acepta su juego inmoral...
Los vikingos jamás llegaron a América. No existe ninguna prueba.
Y aunque hubieran llegado no cambia absolutamene nada. Si llegaron (que no hay pruebas) su llegada fue estéril para ellos y para los americanos. Llegaron los españoles y cambiaron el mundo (para bien) para siempre.
Uff, this IS a typical English versión of Spain History. Most of those things are false. For example, La Inquisición Española was by far The softest in Europe.
En este vídeo se ve todo lo que es la leyenda negra, me parece a mí que tendrás que ver otro que sea más digamos mas objetivo y no tan subjetivo y de índole anglosajona que no ganan ni aun queriendo. A seguir bien y a disfrutar.
Colorin colorado ... La leyenda negra otra vez..ha asomado.
La mayoría de datos erroneos o falsos...muy anglosajon todo.

Apreciado Foreign Reacts, te agradezco el que quieras saber sobre mi país España, pero te aconsejo busque información de fuentes más fidedignas y no videos hechos por algún Inglés, los ingleses salvo excepciones no tienen ni idea de la verdadera Historia Española ni de la Historia Hispánica o imperio Español y menos aún te van a contar de cuando ayudo España a Norteamérica a independizarse de Inglaterra, te dejo un enlace en el que podrás aprender un poco de la verdadera historia de España.
La HISTORIA DE ESPAÑA en 15 minutos | El RESUMEN definitivo: ruclips.net/video/90H1JvKT5tI/видео.html
The video has many gaps and historical errors.... if the person who made this video was my History student he would get a fail. My advice is that you watch the history of Spain by era, the video skips fundamental things to understand current Spain.
I would advise you to look at the story of Juan de Oñate, he crossed the Rio Grande and celebrated Thanksgiving long before the British. You also have a spectacular story like that of Cabeza de Vaca and his journey through the south of the USA. To finish, look at the millions of Native Americans who lived in lands of Spanish conquest and look at the rest of the empires, the Spanish did not exterminate natives like the British and French did, the Geronimo Indian spoke Spanish in addition to his native language, the only thing What he asked of the English was to respect the agreements made with the Spanish to live and dispose of their lands.... the British exterminated them all, well, except for a couple of thousand who were put in concentration camps called reserves... . Greetings
El video tiene muchas lagunas y errores historicos.... si el que hizo este video fuera mi alumno de Historia se llevaria un suspenso. Mi consejo es que vayas viendo la historia de España por epocas, en el video se salta cosas fundamentales para entender la actual España.
Te aconsejaria que miraras la historia de Juan de Oñate, cruzo el rio Bravo y realizo el dia de accion de gracias mucho antes que los britanicos. Tambien tienes una historia espectacular como la de Cabeza de Vaca y su travesia por el sur de USA. Para terminar, mira los millones de nativos americanos que vivien en tierras de conquista española y mira la del resto de imperios, los españoles no exterminaron nativos como si lo hicieron Britanicos y Franceses, el indio Geronimo hablaba español ademas de su lengua nativa, lo unico que pidio a los ingleses fue respetar los acuerdos hechos con los españoles para vivir y disponer de sus tierras.... los britanicos los exterminaron a todos, bueno, menos a un par de miles que metieron en campos de concentracion llamados reservas.... Saludos
Can you make a video of Carlist Spain
Not true. The inquisición could not match the killings made in nace of religión in the rest of Europe,
Well. "Was so bloody more ven by European standards"
Lol. No. It wasn't.
La historia de España nada tiene qué ver con este video. Deberían de haberse informado mejor y no decir tantas mentiras
Convertirse o morir...era lo que cada religión exigía en el periodo de conquista ..la conquista de los musulmanes fue igual...convertirse a la religión musulmana o morir....y paso en todas partes....era lo habitual en las religiones patriarcales....o conmigo o contra mi....después, una vez pasado el tiempo, había pequeñas comunidades de cristianos en territorios controlados por los árabes, cerca de zonas cristianas, como los mozárabes y se permitió una cierta independencia religiosa a nivel personal a " las gentes del libro", ya que Mahoma había sacado la mayor parte de su idea religiosa del judaísmo y el cristianismo ....pero en el primer lugar, durante la conquista, la eleccion siempre era esa....en todas partes y con todas las religiones ...los romanos de Cesar intentaron acabar con los druidas ...la gente es así...🙄
En la parte musulmana cuando se permitía tener otras religiones implicaba cobrar un impuesto extremadamente alto
No era convertirse o morir, era convertirse o irse. Al menos en primera instancia era así.
Jajaaajajajajajajajajaj
Vaya vídeo de m****. Todo es leyenda negra y estereotipos de los anglos contra nosotros 😡
Mentira tras mentira.
Spain civil war was between fascists and democrats, fascists won and ruled during 40 years until the dictator Franco died. Nobody in europe cared about this after WW2, which is a disgrace for the republicans. There was no trial for the horrors of the civil war or the dictatorship that officially ended in 1974, where +500k people were murdered for dissidents. Catalonia and Euskadi (Basque Country) had historically their own institutions, language and culture, but Spain abolished them several times with dictators as Primo de Rivera or some kings. All fascists after 40 years kept all their privileges, money and reputation, and are still protected in Spain, as you can see some ultra far right parties with a lot of votes and support.
Muchos datos falsos
Vaya mierda de video, solo es cierto el 15% de lo que cuenta. Toda una apología de la Leyenda Negra contra España.
Si quieres conocer la historia de España con este vídeo no conocerás nada.
