Some selected fragments of Isabel

Here you have some fragments of the TV series Isabel. They show some important moments of the Catholic Monarchs' reign. I recommend you to watch the whole series, because it's an extraordinary work and historically accurate. On RTVE.es website, you can also find a lot of extra explanations about the period, curiosities and a complete familiy tree to know the most important figures of the period.

Authoritarian Monarchy and Catholic Monarchs' presentation

Here you have the presentation about the Catholic Monarchs and their authoritarian monarchy. Pay special attention to the way they reinforced their power without questioning the powers of the other privileged groups and how the marriage alliances they established with different kingdoms contributed to create Charles I's Empire. 


Presentations of the Christian kingdoms

These are the two presentations to study the Christian kingdoms during the Middle Ages: 

- the first one contains everything about the creation and consolidation of the Christian kingdoms and their conquests of the territory controlled by the Muslims


- the second one includes the feudalization process, the evolution of the crowns of Castile and Aragón and their institutions and the crisis of the Late Middle Ages and the political and social conflicts of the 14th-15th centuries. 


Please, use the presentations for your timelines and sorry for the delay.
