How did Spain end up so poor despite having one of the largest empires to ever exist?
>>526147620You can't maintain an empire forever.
spics are useless even as slaves
>>526147620Look at yourself lol
>>526147620no more new vibes
>>526147620Racemixing
>>526147620Catholics suck at money. That's a protestant thing.
>>526147789That’s because they actually fight back unlike nigs and jeets who are actual slave races.
>>526147620The CIA fucked them pretty hard.
>>526147996I bet it's because they're lazy
>>526147620They are doing pretty good for a country with trillionaire debt and tourism based economy Especially in today's climate
Why did the British Empire become so poor and collapse despite being the most powerful in the world?
>>526147972Moshe mad the Catholics excluded him from central banking.
>>526147620Empire focused on agriculture and mining, never developed the laws, institutions, human capital, or political will that is necessary for industrialization and technology, because the Catholic Spanish caste system worked perfectly well to keep the aristocrats rich, eventually they couldn’t keep up with modern nations in Europe, Napoleon conquered Spain without firing a shot.I know that because we’re the same kind of retarded.
>>526147996This isn't true at all. The reason European colonialism faded was because of American republicanism. The Americans formed "banana republics" keeping the spics as slaves.
>>526147620All empires crumble once currency devaluation starts.
>>526147620The only answer is the Jew S.A. they encouraged independent movements so they could take control of those countries then they faked the USS Maine attack and we lost Cuba and Puerto Rico. We were so fucked up after that we ended up killing ourselves to have an stable and decent goverment.But after that the JEW S.A. again took over qto impose us democracy and socialism in 1975 and today they are literally killing ourselves importing millions of panchos per year. Thank you yankees.
>>526147620Weird flag to start such thread.
>>526147620they tried to cut the jews out so jews stole their IP an went to the land of clogniggers an started the VOC. As you may have noticed, jews tend hold a grudge for a very long time and forgiveness is not in their nature.
They wasted all the gold on decorating churches.
>>526149449Regression to the mean once the EU gibs dry up. >>526149335They did the same to us and the frogs. I don't know what it's like in Spain but there are so many retards here who believe that the USA is a benevolent ally who has our best interests in mind. Totally mindbroken by Hollywood, it's pathetic.
>>526149808Forgot I had the VPN on, I'm an Englishman.
>>526147620Napoleon.
>>526149727the real answer is the lord almighty, saw fit to destroy an armada. As a catholic, we must understand protestants and us werent meant to have dominion over the planet. But if a certain storm doesnt happen, theres literally never a bank of england that branches into the NYFed. The inquisition though, very good possibility fake converts lead to the downfall
>>526147620they lost lots of population in the process of expanding, while Mexico had a massive university Madrid was just a small village
>>526147620The decline of the Empire began in the 1700s, following the disasters of the 30 years war and the 80 years war, where the financial burden of waging war across the globe took a massive economic toll on Spain, which was ravaged by rampant inflation due to the new world gold and silver influxes without any reinvestment into the heart of the Empire. The rest of the 1700s was pretty quiet. However, Spain was still involved in costly wars against France and Britain, both abroad and at home, including the wars of the Spanish succession, which saw Gibraltar lost to us, and later wars in the Caribbean and in the American Revolution. The real disaster and cataclysm that sees the Empire wither and die almost overnight is the Napoleonic invasion of Spain, which results in millions of people dying in the heart of the Empire and the subsequent loss of the navy, which cuts off the viceroyalties from each other, causing massive instability. For the next century, Spain is embroiled in political unrest and further territorial losses, which only end under Franco.
>>526148127It fought two world wars and had to pay multiple countries' debts to America
Spain's monarchy is a living descendent signatory of the Treaty of Verona
>>526148080It is.
>>526149808Our politics are total shit, today our president just said that we need more foreigners and the oposition just said "but not people who don't assimilate" that means millions of panchos. And the far right? Boot lickers of USA, and I'm not exagerating, Santiago Abascal just booked a flight to Israel to kiss that stupid wall.
>>526147620Angloids
They're not poor. They are not affected by what happens in the Middle East (didn't send troops to iraq/afghanistan). 75% of the Americas all speak Spanish. And they have nukes. Notice how they're not affected by the Russia and Chinese conflict, they don't give a fuck and are getting by just fine. It's almost like they're not part of the TV show.
>>526147620They came back.
>>526147620
>>526147620Communism. Turns out it doesn't work when people can't work for themselves.
>>526150427I mean native americans. Hunting and gathering is actually a really easy way to live your life society really fucked us on that
>>526147972This is true, lol. Appearances are everything. Appearances count for Protestants roo but at least they try to live up to the facade they present. Catholics will have huge debts (or illegal income sources) and fake marriages where husband and wife are only in the same room for events and family functions.Spain went bankrupt seven times in one century while selling gold and silver mined in South America to the Chinese.The Chinese made all the goods that Spain then imported. They got so used to not working that the lack of ethic lasts to this day. They're like the trust fund brat who blew the ancestral wealth but wants the same lifestyle.
>>526150479What? we never had nukes and we did send troops to Irak and Afghanistan. And we are poor lol.
>>526147972This. Catholics also have a lot of low level corruption in government.
>>526149808>glorious EU gibs
>>526149335>>526148298>>526149727I think anon here is closer to the mark >>526148290and>>526150314
>>526147620Jews.You think Jews just upped-and-left Spain without keeping all of the levers of power firmly in their hands so that the wealth flowing into spain could flow directly into the parasite on its new host - The Dutch and British East India Companies and the other Westward Jewish Trading companies in the Americas?Just ask yourselves - when they (supposedly) upped-and-left Germany and Europe to go to Israel and America mid 20th century, did they give up the levers of power or did they keep them?
