The History of Spain: Conquests, Cultures, and Revolutions

Bloody crusades, glittering empires, and revolutions that shook Europe to its core ✦ Spain isn't just a country-it's a battlefield where Romans, Moors, and Inquisitors clashed, leaving scars still visible today. Uncover the dark heart of Iberia.

Journey through forbidden histories:
Cave paintings in Altamira that terrified early Christians (they thought demons drew them ).
The real Reconquista: Not holy war, but a 700-year land grab fueled by gold and greed.
Isabella's secret deal with Columbus-how she funded his voyage with confiscated Jewish wealth.
The Spanish Inquisition's torture chambers where "heresy" meant criticizing the crown.
Napoleon's troops eating rats in Zaragoza as guerrillas bled France dry.

"Explodes myths about 'peaceful coexistence' in Al-Andalus. The chapter on Habsburg bankruptcy reveals how New World silver poisoned Spain's economy. Masterful "
- Professor Miguel ngel, Universidad de Sevilla

An Inquisitor's Chilling Justification:
"Burn a few to save thousands."
- Cardinal Cisneros (1499)
(Witness his reign of terror in Chapter 9... and how it bankrolled the conquest of the Americas.)
