| | Philip II of Spain - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Philip was a complex man, and though given to suspicion of members of his court, was not the cruel tyrant that has been painted of him by his opponents. |  | | Philip became King of Portugal, and the success of colonization in America improved his financial position, enabling him to show greater aggression towards his enemies. |  | | Henry IV of France was also able to use his propagandists to identify the Catholic faction with a foreign enemy (Philip and Spain), damaging the Catholic cause in France somewhat. |

 | | The hostility to the kingship of a child was growing, and after Philip had been chosen as defender of the empire during Frederick's minority he consented to his own election. |  | | The abdication of his father on the i6th of January 1556 constituted Philip sovereign of Spain with its American possessions, of the Aragonese inheritance PHILIP III.IV. |  | | The following year was less favorable to his arms; and in March 1201 Innocent took the decisive step of placing Philip and his associates under the ban, and began to work energetically in favor of Otto. |

| | Philip II on Encyclopedia.com |
 | | Philip's half-brother, John of Austria (1545-78), defeated the Ottomans at the battle of Lepanto (1571), and Tunis was captured and held briefly (1573-74). |  | | The only major military success of Philip's later reign was the conquest of Portugal, to which he had a claim as the son of Isabella of Portugal, daughter of Manuel I. When King Henry of Portugal died (1580) without issue, Alba overran the country, and Philip was recognized as king by the Portuguese Cortes. |  | | Philip's administration was generally just, but his bureaucratic absolutism, with its disregard for local conditions and privileges, inevitably caused discontent. |

| | Reviews in History: |
 | | Philip II controlled Spain for fifty-five years in the latter half of the sixteenth century from his appointment as regent for his father, Emperor Charles V, in 1543 to his death in 1598. |  | | When Philip and his regent were perceived to have retreated on their policy concerning the Netherlands, this was seen as governmental weakness and led to an increase in opposition. |  | | Where the early period of relations between Spain and England were hindered by Philip’s problems in the Mediterranean and the Netherlands, the later 1570s were troubled by Philip’s altered focus to Portugal and his attempt to unite the Iberian peninsula. |
