The War of the Spanish Succession, which occurred between 1701 and 1714, was fought over who would succeed the childless King Charles II to the throne of Spain.

By the end of the war, conflict in Europe was hardly over, but a new, dominant power had emerged.

A lo largo de los siglos, España ha estado sujeta al señorío de otros países. Fue ocupada por los antiguos griegos y romanos, los visigodos, los franceses y los musulmanes.

Durante todo ese tiempo, otros le dijeron a España cómo dirigir su país, cómo, con quién y dónde pelear.

Not all Americans were happy with the change, with famous Americans like Mark Twain speaking out about the US occupation of the lands that it was meant to save.
