Viva La Republica End The Monarchy...?? Spain

[thorsten]

Look at the brighter side: the economy is bad and there's huge unemployment and still a 46-years old guy without any working experiences finally found a job...

Spain has had a strong democratic undercurrent for many years and at least since the 1530 Revolt of the Comuneros in Castile y Leon and the Revolt of the Brotherhoods in Valencia at the same time which almost saw off Charles V (a usurper and arguably protoEUite!!).

Part of their grievances related to overtaxation to fund Hapsburg territorial ambitions. The slave mines of Potosi in the Viceroyality of Peru saved Charles.

Spain hasnt any colonial silver supplies left now and shipments of gold from Bruselas have also ceased.

You have got to be keeeeeeding me!!!!!!!

Obviously I haven't been using enough exclamation points because no one believes what I write when I end clauses with a "."

I dont totally understand this comment but I'd be interested to learn from the thoughts of the Emperor on the subject of perpetuation of the Monarchy
