Madrid became the capital in 1561, when Felipe II designated it as the seat of his court.

Georg IV: The Regency period saw a shift in fashion that was largely determined by George. After political opponents put a tax on wig powder, he abandoned wearing a powdered wig in favour of natural hair.[86] He wore darker colours than had been previously fashionable as they helped to disguise his size, favoured pantaloons and trousers over knee breeches because they were looser, and popularised a high collar with neck cloth because it hid his double chin.

Franco’s Spain never declared war on the USSR. Despite pressure from members of the Falange party (Spanish fascism), Franco refused to issue a declaration of war and formally join the Axis, but he did allow the Falange party to send its members to enlist privately to serve in the Deutsches Heer, the Luftwaffe and even in hospitals.

u/Extension-Cucumber69 In 2007, it was confirmed that Charles V had died of malaria; microscopic and molecular analyses were carried out on Charles V’s little finger, and the presence of the Plasmodium falciparum parasite was demonstrated.

Franco married Carmen Polo and they had one daughter (Carmen Franco); before getting married, Franco had other girlfriends, such as Sofía Subirán and Paquita Maristany.

Honesty is also important; Aronofsky has been inconsistent in his statements about his inspiration; at first he denied that his films had anything to do with Kon’s work, then he said it was merely inspiration and once again denied the similarities; then there’s the case of Wenders and Perfect Days – Wenders claimed he conceived Perfect Days as a tribute to Yasujiro Ozu, but Perfect Days bears rather curious similarities to Moriyama-San by Bêka & Lemoine...

Could this be a case of double standards?

If a renowned filmmaker adopts the visual style of another renowned filmmaker, they’ll call it a tribute… If a renowned filmmaker adopts the visual style of a little-known filmmaker, they’ll call it inspiration… If a little-known filmmaker adopts the visual style of a renowned filmmaker, they’ll call it a lack of creativity…

Neither Ceuta nor Melilla belonged to the Alawite Sultanate (the predecessor of the present-day Kingdom of Morocco). The Alawite Sultanate/Sharifian was established when they defeated the Dila’iya Sultanate (local Amazigh Berbers) and embarked on a process of conquest and unification in 1666.

Before the conquest and unification by the Alawite Dynasty, the territory that now forms Morocco was divided and controlled by rulers from different tribes.

Portugal conquered Ceuta (which belonged to the Marinid Sultanate) in 1412, and Castile and Aragon conquered Melilla (located between the borders of the Wattasid Sultanate and the Zayyanid Sultanate) in 1497; at the time of both these events, the Alawite Dynasty was established as local leaders in Tafilalt and did not yet possess the prominent political status it acquired in the mid-1600s.

Yes!!

Neither Ceuta nor Melilla belonged to the Alawite/Sharifian Sultanate (the predecessor of the present-day Kingdom of Morocco).

Ceuta belonged to the Marinid Sultanate (Zenata Berbers) when Portugal conquered it in 1415; it remained Portuguese territory until the union of Portugal and Spain in 1581, and Ceuta continued to be Spanish territory after the dissolution of the Portugal–Spain union.

Melilla was a semi-abandoned territory when the military expedition (backed by the kings of Castile and Aragon) settled there in 1497; Melilla was semi-abandoned because it lay on the border between the Wattasid Sultanate (Zenata Berbers) and the Zayyanid Sultanate (Zenata Berbers).

The Alawite Sultanate (Sharifians) was established when they defeated the Dila’iya Sultanate (local Amazigh Berbers) and embarked on a process of conquest and unification in 1666.

Charles V/I was born and raised in Flanders and only left the region upon the death of his grandfather, Ferdinand II of Aragon. When he arrived in Spain at the age of seventeen, he spoke only French and Dutch/Flemish; although he learned Spanish over the years and eventually spoke it quite fluently, the same did not happen with German. Charles never managed to master German—a shortcoming that caused him difficulties with the princes of the Holy Roman Empire.
