La Corona de Castilla

La Corona de Castilla was a historical entity formed in the late Middle Ages when the Kingdom of Castile unified with other territories, notably during the Reconquista. It functioned as a sovereign political body under the Spanish monarchy, encompassing regions like Castile, León, Galicia, and others. The Crown of Castile played a key role in Spain’s expansion, exploration, and administration during the 15th and 16th centuries. It was characterized by its legal institutions, privileges, and the influence of the monarchy over its diverse regions, forming a foundational part of what would become modern Spain.
