European Developments & Events
Age of Exploration Begins in Portugal!
The Spanish Reconquista! Ay, Caramba!
Spanish Christians began to take back the land they lost to the Spanish Muslims. They were victorious and began a long-standing stereotype of Spain always being Christian. They were completed the same year Columbus set out to sea, in 1492.
The Holy Roman Power Creep
The empire in question was experiencing massive amounts of growth in the 1400s
