      The Spanish flu was not named because it happened in Spain, but because it was a secret among the soldiers of the First World War that the soldiers were dying by disease, not in combat.
      It was the Spanish press that first brought the news to light, and for this reason it was called the Spanish flu, but its beginning was in military barracks in the US, being US soldiers who brought the flu to Europe.

    The spanish army wasnt really defeated by the napoleonic one. They conquered spain when the king let them in to conquer portugal, but napoleon decided to take spain aswell, betraying them and breaking the deal.The napoleonic army was far superior but still spain managed to win the war thanks to guerrilla warfare and brittish supoort.

      Seriously, guy? "Estimates of how many were executed on behest of the Spanish Inquisition have been offered from early on; historian Hernando del Pulgar (1436-c. 1492) estimated that 2000 people were burned at the stake between 1478 and 1490.[35]
      Estimates range from 30,000 to 50,000 burnt at the stake (alive or not)
      at the behest of the Spanish Inquisition during its 300 years of
      activity" The fact that they asked other people to do the job does not make them any less horrible!

    • @Nereinha
      @Nereinha 6 лет назад +72

      Those numbers come from sources that helped spread the so-called "black legend". If you read recent revisions of the European Inquisition, not even from spanish authors but for germans or french historians like Henry Kamen or Marcel Bataillon, the truth is that the spanish inquisition was even merciful compared to his fellow europeans comrades, the numbers prove so. Again, I'm not denying their crimes, just pointing out that talking about the "spanish inquisition" when it was an european institution that commited their crimes all around Europe (in some cases with much more virulence) is utterly ridiculous.

    Such a shame that a really cool video is so filled with errors.
    Major mistakes:
    -Catalonia is a region in the NORTH East, not South East.
    -The kingdom of Granada didn't hold so much territory. It was most of the time limited to the current provinces of Málaga, Granada and Almería, with small pieces of the other provinces (but not them as a whole as depicted). I'm also sure that the Portuguese wouldn't be so happy with them included in that kingdom.
    -HABSBURG is not spelled with a damn P.
    -There wasn't such a long-standing republic in Spain as the video mentions. The 1st Republic lasted only from February 1873 to December 1874, at which point the Borbons were restored. Then, after more than 50 years, two kings (one of them helped some time by his mother and by a fascist dictator), and World War I, the 2nd Republic was declared in April 1931, and ended in April 1939 after three years of a civil war.
    -The Kingdom of Spain wasn't created until 1714, after the Sucession War ended with victory of the Borbons over the Habsburgs. The marriage of Isabella I of Castille and Ferdinand II of Aragon just united their realms under a same monarch, yet both territories were to remain separated entities. That was the reason of the Antonio Pérez problem that Phillip II had to cope with a whole century later.
    -It wasn't King Ferdinand that authorised Columbus to travel to "the west Indies", but Queen Isabella. No American territory was conquered by the Crown of Aragon.
    I know it's very difficult to mention every detail of a country's history in such a short video... But be sure that the info you're giving is accurate enough. Go on though, these videos are damn too cool.

      El nombre de España proviene de HISPANIA nombre dado por Roma a la Península ibérica. Varios reyes visigodos se autoproclamaron reyes de SPANIA. El Reino de Toledo ocupó toda la actual España ya que Hemenegildo termino en el año 580 con el reino suevo y SUINTILA expulsó a los bizantinos y en los Concilios de Toledo se hablaba de un ESPAÑA con la misma lengua OFICIAL, mismos impuestos misma MONEDA y mismo REY y LEYES de ámbito estatal y UNA SOLA RELIGIÓN CATÓLICA DESDE RECAREDO
      La Reina Católica en su testamento deja las ESPAÑAS (dentro de ellas la América española) a su hija Juana, que hereda también el reino de Aragón y se crea ESPAÑA como UNA NACIÓN ( con una moneda común, un cuerpo legislativo y lengua oficial, aunque mantengan los antiguos reinos una lengua propia y capacidad legislativa LO MISMO QUE HOY DÍA) y por supuesto todos los que proceden de la península ibérica eran EN EL EXTRANJERO denominados ESPAÑOLES en todos los países del mundo.

El motivo principal para que los echaran fue precisamente las condiciones económicas y las ridículas restricciones comerciales que imponían los españoles en América, las élites criollas estaban hartas de la pésima administración y de su situación de ciudadanos de segunda clase. El revisionismo histórico de los españoles es para morirse de risa. Se llegan a leer cosas tan absurdas como que en el imperio español no hubo esclavitud o que los criollos y nativos americanos tenían los mismos derechos que los españoles. De verdad ¿ustedes son tan inocentes para creer en esos cuentos de hadas o sólo se hacen los tontos por gusto? . No gratuitamente todas las excolonias españoles son un fracaso hoy en día, la herencia extractivista y corrupta de los criollos era la misma de sus ancestros ibéricos, y es lo que sobrevive hasta hoy.

    You explained a totally English version of Spanish history which is its rival. You forgot to say that Spain was the first empire which had global economy and markets, the first empire of the sun, it was the only European power who gave to native Americans same rights as Spanish citizens due Christianity (but human life had not much value in the middle age anyway), that it conquered from the Patagonia up to nowadays Canada, as well as other colonies in east Asia, that it kicked out Otomans from Europe and that it rules the whole world without competition for 300 years. And if you just learnt history through English sources you will ignore that it kicked back the ass to England way way much more than at Trafalgar’s battle. Not your fault, but your sources were too biased.

      @@joseangelbravogallego9363Si me preguntas a mí, la leyenda negra existe en América desde hace un tiempo, porque en las escuelas americanas se ha intentando buscar un enemigo exterior en España, para engrandecer el hecho de la independencia, en vez de buscar ese enemigo en Francia y Reino Unido, primero, que prometieron muchas cosas y sólo buscaban sacar ventajas comerciales, enredando con guerras y dictaduras en el siglo XIX, y luego la Unión Soviética y Estados Unidos, patrocinadores de tantos golpes de estado, guerrillas, revoluciones, contrarrevoluciones (que por otra parte afectaron a toda Europa en la época revolucionaria y en el enfrentamiento comunismo-nacionalismo a veces fascismo). Antes de que llegaran los españoles a América, en el continentes había muchas más guerras tribales, y además sacrificios humanos y canibalismo (debido al aislamiento del continente, que no se benefició del tráfico cultural y tecnológico que sí tuvo Europa con Asia. Hasta que llegaron los españoles). Durante la época del imperio español se impuso un idioma común, una mezcla de razas, una religión de paz también común, que se adaptó muchas veces al culto local. Muchas de las tradiciones que había en América, viven todavía en el catolicismo, y muchas lenguas fueron conservadas. América entró en el mundo occidental, siendo indígena, gracias a las universidades y las infraestructuras que creo España, y que otros imperios sólo se molestaron en crear en las tierras de blancos. Ahí tienes la India, todavía con sistemas de castas, donde sólo el 1% de la población es católica. El 90% de los filipinos es católico, casi todos tienen apellidos españoles, hablaba el español la mitad de la población filipina en 1900, y creciendo (hasta que Estados Unidos prohibió el español). Se crearon universidades desde 1611. La India se llamaba Compañía Británica Oriental de las Indias o algo así, una fábrica, en la que no invertían. Sólo 200000 personas tiene el idioma inglés como lengua materna en la India. El inglés fue prohibido en 1960, en la India. O sea, ha sido salvado por el influjo cultural, político y económico de Estados Unidos, después de 1945. La inversión española en el mundo fue enorme. El 70% del oro y la plata se reinvertía en América. Hay que tener en cuenta que México y Perú producen más oro y plata en un año que el imperio español en América en 300 años. Lo digo porque parte de la leyenda negra, es que España robaba. Casi el otro 30% del oro y la plata fue para crear ejércitos, para salvar el catolicismo en Europa, lo que se consiguió, luchando durante 200 años contra 5 potencias europeas.
      En los 320-400 años del imperio español, las únicas guerras fueron guerras costeras contra ingleses, franceses y holandeses, de las que casi no se enteró la población, y algunas revoluciones como la de los mapuches. Pero nada parecido a la sangría que ha vendido en los últimos 200 años.

    Your video is very imprecise
    The muslims took spain cause a visigoth noble was searching help to tumble the king of that time. He didn't expect that the arabs were about to take the control.
    Isabel la Catolica financed Colon, not Fernando. Thats important cause Spain at that time was not an unique country, Castilla and Aragon had their own sovereignty, rules and institutions, so Castilla controlled America, not Aragon.
    Italy was part of Aragon as a result of conquests.
    Since the beginning of the 16th century until the 19th century Spain was constantly in war against Half of Europe. France, England, United provinces (Holand) and more; this was the major cause of its decandenty. But during the 16th and half of the 17th century spain was the strongest power in the world. In fact the spanish army propiciated the end of the medieval war tactics (tercios).
    Napoleon won Spain cause his cleverness. He invited the king of Spain to a meeting, and then kidnapp him, with horrible consequences for the spaniard system. The French could took Spain almost without resistance, because the power was completely unstructured. Spain didn't lost his army, most of it didnt even fought. In fact, after spanish king signed to resign in benefit of Jose Bonaparte (Napoleon brother), the spanish army was ruled by the French. Thats why its hilarious. Taking a country without fight and then be able to use his army! That was what Napoleon probably thought, but after all was not that easy. A lot of civils began to former guerrilla groups (motivated by nacionalism) in order to Harass french troops. Some spanish generals who were in rebellion could take advantage of them, and thanks to a French army movement plan taken by guerrilleros, resulted in the first victory in a Pitched battle by the spaniards. Jose Bonaparte had to run away from Madrid and Napoleon itself needed to enter in Spain with the Grande Armée to recover the power. After that, the harass continued resulting in an important handicap that cost a lot of capital to Napoleon that could not use in his other wars across Europe.

      Mostly because its stupid to argue if Aragon ruled Castilla through Ferdinand or Castille ruled over Aragon through the marriage. Both countries united and while they kept their formal goverments separated, they took both kingdoms into consideration before making anything happen.
      It is true that Castille colonized America and for some time they kept the lands as part of Castille, but with the time passing, the more unified Spain became and everybody moved everywhere and did everything for the country. Languages werent barriers, cultures werent barriers, economy wasnt a barrier either... when the Borbones took control of Spain after the succession wars, a lot of nobility priviledges from some regions (like Catalonia) were dropped because their support for the "enemy" and that sparked some nationalism, modern nationalism in catalonia feeds from those events twisting and lying about what happened and the history.

Don''t forget Blas de Lezo who stopped the biggest navy until the landing of Normandy The English general with 200 big ships was defeated by Blas with only 6 ships.For that reason in middle and south América the people don't speak english as a mother tongue.

    5:50 Actually Spain had one of the best land armies in the world. However, the lack of proper coordination between the unit as a consequence of the lack of a central high command led to two major defeat during the battle of Tudela. Also, Spain had just a fraction of the manpower that France had on that period.
    During 1810, the worst year of the war for the Spanish forces, the regular army (not counting guerrilla) included around 130.000 soldiers in 20 divisions (6000 to 7000 soldiers each), most of them equiped with British Brown Bess and Baker rifles, as well as several guerrilla groups acting in the high grounds, around 50.000 in total. The Spanish regular army was, at the time, leaded by Captain General Castaños, an energic and active commander who won some strategic battles against the French in Andalusia, like the battle of Bailen, in which an Spanish army corps (24.000 soldiers) completely encircled and destroyed a French expedition (18.000 soldiers) after four days of battle in which the Granada Division (leaded by colonel Reding) had a mayor role engaging the French soldiers. The later years, Spain together with Portugal and England planned a great counter-offensive from their held territories in Portugal, Cádiz and Galicia towards Oviedo, Castilla and Seville, which was ultimately sucessful since Sevilla was liberated in 1812 and Napoleon signed a peace treaty with Spain in 1814.
    6:27 Actually the Spanish king was Amadeo de Saboya, the youngest son of the King of Italy, and the republic was proclaimed after he resigned and seemed that nobody wanted to reign in Spain. His words were "me marcho de este país de locos", which would be roughly translated as "I abandon this crazy country".
    6:34 Wrong uniforms. The Spanish colonial troops used a striped uniform with a big hat. Also, the defeat was due to the lack of actual preparation within the Spanish navy and the lack of manpower to fight an actual war.
    6:44 That "boom" was a mirage, actually, since most of the money was spent in casinos.
    6:51 You're forgetting some things. First of all, the advent of the Second Republic in 1931, after an election in which republican candidates held every large city of Spain, since the corruption and the problems within the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera led to an enormous dissent within the monarchy itself. Second, Italy and Germany wanted a friendly Spain to fight against France in their plans for seizing Europe, so they started giving funds and armament to some Spanish para-military groups like the Falange (fascists) and the carlists (Spanish reactionaries supporting the heirs of Carlos María Isidro, brother of Fernando VII).
    7:24 Spain was actually non-beligerant, that means: "we are not in war but we support Hitler", and sent resources to the axis, mostly tungsten made for AP shells (Spain is one of the world's first producers of tungsten) as well as an expeditionary force, the División Azul, which was a reinforced infantry division.
    8:09 Spain has received immigrants in large groups since the early 2000s so it isn't an actual crisis. However, the Spanish government has put billboards with barbed wire in the borders between Spain and Morocco.

Good examples would be: battle of Kłuszyn (against Russians) and the battle of Kircholm (against Swedes).

    It's funny to see people in the comments complain that the video gives a very brutal image of the Spain of the XVI-XVII centuries. When more serious is that this country didn't exist in that period; Spain was composed by two kingdoms with different laws and institutions but ruled by the same king, their names are Castile (at the west) and Aragon (at the east).

    A couple of things that are absolutelly wrong:
    1. Queen Isabel and King Fernando didn't join their crowns with their marriage. This was made 200 years latttteerrr!!! with the Borbon family. Spain was the Crown of Castilla (Kingdom of Castilla, Kingdom of Leon, Kingdom of Galicia, and territories abroad). Aragon had the kingdom of Aragon, Counties of Catalonia, Valencia, Balearic Islands, most of Italy, and even for a while a couple of territories in Greece. Read Regius Professor John H. Elliott (Emeritus, at Oxford).
    2. Spanish Inquisition. There was Inquisition in Aragon already (a French fashion, you know?). I suggest you to read Henry Kamen's latest studies on this subject. Protestant Propaganda was the one that made it look so badly. While Protestants were even worse (they believed in witches, while in Spain, the Inquisition thought it was a stupid people's belief). The Spanish Inquisition didn't chase witches. Lawyers, painters and all kind of proffessionals were members of the Inquisition's court. Some decided how and what to paint (like Francisco Pacheco, master painter in Seville, who was Velazquez's mentor and father in law) theologists...
    By the way... a Spanish theologist killed by Calvin's inquisition, in Switzerland, Miguel de Servet, demonstrated the circulation of blood, for theological purposes. His brother was sent to Switzerland by the Spanish Inquisition to save him, he failed...

    there is a mistake on that video, Spain was never part of the Roman Empire because it didnt existed at the time, what was part of the Roman Empire was Hispania which is the entire Iberian Peninsula that includes Portugal, Hispania and Spain arent the same thing. And wtf is Portugal and Granada doing together at 4:03 ??? edition error most certainly.

    0:19 Spain didn't enter WW1 because it was in good relations with both sides, as well as having our own problems inside with corruption and colonial wars in Morocco. We didn't enter WW2 'cause our country was already in ruins after the Spanish civil war and Franco wanted so many things in order to enter that Germany couldn't afford sending them.

      PIJUS MAGNIFICUS I do not think Spain surpassed France in tourists visiting the country, but it surpasses France in tourist spending. That means, Spain earns more thant France does by tourism eventhough France has more tourists.
      And.. sorry, but Spain will never be again on the top 10 of GDP countries. The economy is very fragile, based on tourism, a demographical nightmare (few young people), with debt and low wage jobs. Brasil or Mexico, and BRICS will be the future. (However, having more GDP does not mean better quality of life)

    • @casrvsfv3172
      @casrvsfv3172 7 лет назад +12

      MrEnric98 we are currently 12th, and we grow a 3%, our unemployment is still an 18% and fell 2,5% every year for the last 3. If unemployment keeps decreasing and growth steady getting to the top 10 would be very easy, I mean we're almost there! that won't mean much, I mean we grow the same wether we surpass others in GDP or not, but still.
      Tourism is a 5% of our economy, our 3 main exports are: light vehicles, penicillins and car pieces, the three of them represent more of our GDP than tourism, the thing is our country is known for our touristic culture but there's a lot more to our economy than tourism. Besides an economy is not weak for being based on tourism instead of car production, it doesn't matter what you produce, it matters that you get people to buy it, wether it's your culture/lifestyle that they but or your vehicles :)
      Regarding quality of life, I find that quite hard to measure, we can agree certain things are good or bad, but you can't measure everything. In my personal opinion, maybe because I'm a Spaniard and I'm used to it, I think Spain's culture has the concept of quality of life as a part of itself. Whenever I've been to a different country, I found sad the way most people interact with each other or how they use their time in the day. It's funny but I learnt to appreciate Spain by being outside of Spain and seeing how people live there. Maybe they like it more haha that's the reason I think that's quite subjective.
