Isabella of Castile: Reconquista - Full History ( All Parts )

Synopsis: In the final chapter of the Reconquista we look at the life of Isabella of Castile. She was born into a position of obscurity and was likely to have ended up as nothing more than a footnote in history. Yet, her impressive life showed the power of perseverance. She ascended to become a Queen, restored the wealth and prestige of her country, kept her rivals at bay, and did what all the priors kings of Castile could not - she ended the Reconquista and drove Islam from Iberia. =================== CONTRIBUTE ON PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/FPHx ============================= DOWNLOAD FLASH POINT HISTORY PODCAST EPISODES: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/f...
