The Crown of Spain (1516 – present) is a series of titles and honors given to the reigning monarch of Spain.

History

At its height, the Spanish Empire was one of the most powerful empires. The Kingdom of Spain used to be the Crown of Castile and the Crown of Aragon. Both kingdoms united when Isabella I married Ferdinand II of Aragon. Both crowns descended to their daughter Joanna of Castile.

For a few decades, the Spanish Empire was united with the Habsburg Empire.

Today

Today the King of Spain is Felipe VI. He is the King, but not Holy Roman Emperor nor King of Gibraltar. Gibraltar was taken over by the British Empire, and its head of state is the current British Monarch.
