Strudeler’s Civilizations: Castile
Play as the Catholic Monarch, Isabella de Trastamara; in Sid Meier’s Civilization VI.
The Castilians inherited their way into the leading Christian polity on the Iberian peninsula, rivaled by their cousins in Portugal and Aragon by the 14th century. The Castilians also helds a great tradition of military history, they eventually concluded the great reconquista for Iberia with assistance with Aragon, a nation aligned in Castile’s interests through the marriage of the Catholic Monarchs Isabella I and Ferdinand II, respective leaders of Castile and Aragon. Castile, which had long held other kingdoms such as Galicia and Leon, would go on to centralize a united Spain led from Toledo, it was also the Castilians that spread Iberian influence to the new world and revolutionized pike-and-shot warfare in Europe. Castile was abolished in 1833 AD, but its legacy remains as the dominate Iberian language spoken by Hispanic peoples (Spanish is Castilian, unless Latinised).
