Spain
Spain's powerful world empire of the 16th
and 17th centuries ultimately yielded command of the
seas to England. Subsequent failure to embrace the mercantile
and industrial revolutions caused the country to fall
behind Britain, France, and Germany in economic and
political power.
Spain remained neutral in World Wars I
and II, but suffered through a devastating civil war
(1936-39). In the second half of the 20th century, Spain
has played a catch-up role in the western international
community. Continuing concerns are Basque Fatherland
and Liberty (ETA) terrorism and further reductions in
unemployment.
