  You forgot to mention the last two colonies that officially ended The Spanish Empire. Western Sahara and then shortly after Equatorial guinea

  For some reason I can&apos;t understand there&apos;s a severe lack of Spanish History content on YouTube, so thank you for this! And the XIX century, such an incredibly difficult and confusing century to explain so well!

  The history of Spain is amazing, unique, and very fascinating. I do think you could have included a little more of the events going on in Spanish America. The history surrounding the independence of continental Spanish America is very extense and interesting as well. It is part of the history of Spain after all. One fact that could be of interest was the Plan in New Spain to bring Fernando VII to the continent or even his brother or another member of a royal house of Europe but the authoritarian nature of Fernando prevented this from happening and that is why Agustin Iturbide of Agustin I became emperor.

  Fun fact: The phrase Guerilla Warfare comes from the Spanish word Guerrilla which means small war. It was the tactic of dividing large military formations into smaller groups which would use surprise and stealth to attack supply lines and raid French formations from unexpected sides. Spaniards have been successfully using &quot;Guerilla&quot; in their mountainous terrain since they were invaded by Rome 2000 years earlier.
