| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Emperor Charles V |
 | | Charles had now to consider whether he would allow liberty of action to the Protestant princes of Germany, to whom, under pressure of war, he had made concessions, especially at the Diet of Spires in 1544. | | | Charles escaped, but abandoned his plan for the reorganization of the imperial government. | | | But be made the first, perhaps the only, attempt on a large scale to deal with colonial politics, in practical effect, from the double standpoint of political and economical interests and with the realization of a duty to promote Christian civilization. |

| | By 1583 Spain commanded the seas, and Elizabeth quite reasonably feared that more plots might be hatched against her. | | | Diplomatic and military maneuvers on the continent during this period were shaped by the Catholic powers' attempts to suppress Protestantism. | | | The Ridolfi conspiracy provoked Elizabeth to shift from limited covert attempts to undermine Spanish interests to open hostility against Spain and King Philip. |

| | Unified Spain possessed in 1492 a powerful war machine, a solid economy, an exterior projection, naval experience including the exploration of trade routes and notable scientific-technical potential mathematicians, geographers, astronomers and shipbuilders who had been formed in a melting-pot of three cultures (Jews, Muslims and Christians). | | | In conclusion Spain was chosen for historical research and inclusion on this site due to its distance from what is believed to be the origin of man. The above article reveals the great mixture of nationalities that migrated to and eventually became Spain. | | | The fact that Christopher Columbus (who was not originally Spanish) appealed to a foreign court to offer his services proved that the discovery of America was not incidental. |

| | Even in Spain itself there was no formal unity and no single institution by which he could impose his rule. | | | This financed Charles's victory against the German Protestants at Muhlberg, but it left a terrible legacy for the economy of Spain, particularly for the Indies trade. | | | Aragon, however, already possessed a highly organized bureaucratic Chancellery which the reforms of Ferdinand had brought within the framework of the Council of Aragon. |

| | However, there is no evidence for this theory, and the only colour associated with the Commoners is red which they used on their surcoats in the form of red crosses, as opposed to the King's troops who used white ones. | | | However, the republicans' political opponents ended up identifying purple as a republican colour indeed, so the urban legend became more and more believed to be a true story (as is usually the case with urban legends!) | | | Ironically enough, the royal standard manufactured for Queen Elizabeth II (of Spain)'s coronation in the early 1830's was made with a purple field, probably due to a mistaken (or chromatically exaggerated) interpretation of the heraldic tincture purpure. |
