Spanish Empire

Page history last edited by Paula Samal 4 years, 9 months ago

After Columbus sailed to the America (1492), Spain went about conquering the Americas.  Over time, Spain gained other territories beyond the Americas and became a maritime empire.  The Spanish Golden Age was a period of great cultural expansion from 1550 to 1600 paid for with wealth from the Americas, mostly silver.
