Spanish Habsburgs
The Spanish Habsburgs were a branch of the Habsburg dynasty that ruled over Spain from 1516 to 1700. The dynasty was known for its extensive territorial holdings, including the Spanish Empire in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia. The Spanish Habsburgs were also known for their intermarriage with other European royal families, leading to a complex web of alliances and conflicts. The dynasty reached its height under Charles V, who was also Holy Roman Emperor, but eventually declined due to inbreeding and internal strife.
