Queen by chance, happened to Henry IV of Castile, "The Powerless", the death of his brother Alfonso (brother of Elizabeth) in early age due to the ingestion of herbs.The alleged daughter of Henry IV King of Castile then was called "The Beltraneja" by reason of being conceived as the gossips of the time for Beltran de la Cueva, a friend of King Henry IV and Queen Juana of Portugal , his wife and queen of Castile.
After several fights, disputes, deaths and other herbsElizabeth I was crowned Queen of Castile, with that name, in 1474 at the age of 24 years.We had married a los19 years with Ferdinand of Aragon, King of Sicily, who was two years younger than her.

Nominal Queen of CastilePhilip I of Castile ..... "The hemoso" and his wife Juana called "Loca" ...... with love for her husband Philip I
This Philip I, the Handsome, died in 1506 when he is King of Spain and inagurando the Habsburg dynasty (Habsburg Hispanicized).Elizabeth must have died almost worth, everyone was dying tohis eyes, his daughter, his son and heir, heir his grandson, the son of his daughter heir, and luckily did not see what happened to Felipe "The Beautiful" who died so suddenly perhaps aided by some herbs dissolved in water in order of who? ... his wife Juana mad with love.
The dynastic disaster was tremendous, the Kingdom went to a Queen who called Juana "la Loca" for traveling with her late husband, embalmed, throughout the lands of his kingdom Spain never was clear where the coffin was.
He was still in love with him, and could not bear to bury him as the holy custom of those times.Dead of Queen Juana "la Loca" came from the Netherlands aHer son, Charles, born in Ghent did not even knowentoces speak the Castilian.
For all overseas perfect Castilian speaking a strange language.He was born in Ghent in 1500 and came here with all his courtiers and foreign advisors were very badly received in Castile, and with good reason.Result, bloody civil war by the Dukes and Knights Castilian king did not want a 19 year old came from abroad, not speaking the language, to reign one of the greatest kingdoms of the time.The Communards called under Juan Bravo and preferred to Padilla's brother Carlos, Fernando, raised in Spain by his grandfather Ferdinand II of Aragon, husband of the deceased (the also deceased) Isabella I of Castile.The Communards were defeated by the troops of Charles in Villalar (Valladolid), April 23, 1521, his bosses Padilla, Bravo and Maldonado were beheaded.Now the feast of the Castilla-Leon is celebrated on April 23, and is a public holiday in that community.His patriotic holiday, and we see that the Spaniards remember their heroes with love.
This marriage of Kings (Isabel and Fernando) was called by Pope Alexander VI Borgia Pope "The Catholic Monarchs", and the truth is I do not really know the reason, be it Christian ideas defended the Muslim faced with the time .Or the ball well for them, as was customary in those days. However considering that Pope Alexander VI was born in Xativa (Valencia) Spain, no wonder some favoritism with so-called "Catholic Monarchs".(The history of this Pope / Borgia-Borja in Spanish / we leave for another time ... is also very seasoned).Elizabeth I's dream came to nothing, because until todaylands of this country we call Spain remain disunited and each of them want to be independent, five hundred years after the events described in this brief history.
The culmination and in my opinion are committed greaterrors in that reign.Highlight only two as the importance they had in the later history:First:Eject the Kingdom to the Jews and those who professed the Muslim religion .... great, great mistake, was their landas for the rest of its inhabitants.Contributed wealth and work, so we went ..... after a disaster.Second:Create the infamous "Inquisition" and give full powers to theChristian Church of the time to pursue those notprofessed "true faith" expoliándoles, torturing andfinally sentenced to death to many people.
Hit?If America was discovered, but the inhabitants of thoseland were very quiet before the arrival of "the conquering Spanish, Portuguese, French, Dutch and British .....Anyway, for much will that be can not change the destiny of a people, nation or the events that happen haphazardly.
Another success could be the creation of "Holy Brotherhood" that ensured the safety on roads that were hitherto intrasitables by the number of bandits, murderers, thieves who infested the communication routes between cities.
Greetings to all and hope that you will have enjoyed the story of one of the Queens most significant in the history of Spain.
(In collaboration with my wife CUCA , SHE IS WHO TELL ME THE STORIES)
The first word of the heraldic arms of the Catholic Monarchs was, in all probability, in the church of San Juan de los Reyes (Toledo), whose thundering is the San Juan haloed eagle, and used as currency by Princess Isabel.Yugo and cut the Gordian knot, both mounted with the nickname ... as personal emblem of Ferdinand II of Aragon in the roof of one of the rooms of the palace of the Catholic Monarchs of Aljafería of Zaragoza, 1488-1492.
