 History of Spain - Facts, Information, and Encyclopedia Reference article
Spain's powerful world empire of the great 16th and 17th centuries reached its height and declined under the Habsburgs, sometimes referred to incorrectly as the "Hapsburgs." The Spanish empire reached its maximum extent under Carlos I of Spain, who was also (as Carlos V) emperor of the Holy Roman Empire.
Spain initially sided against France in the Napoleonic Wars, but the defeat of her army early in the war led to Charles IV of Spain's pragmatic decision to align with the revolutionary French.
Spain - nearly bankrupt from the war with France and the reconstruction of the country - was unable to pay her soldiers, and in 1820, an expedition intended for the colonies revolted in Cadiz.

 Chapter 15: A History of Spain and Portugal   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-12)
While it is true that Spain would have had to run faster than she had in the sixteenth century in order not to lose ground in the seventeenth century--a period of greater competition and development among west European powers--she was unable to maintain even the pace of 1600.
The majority of church spokesmen in Spain sided with the authority of the crown, and during the first half of the seventeenth century, a considerable number of regalist treatises were written by both lay and clerical Spanish jurists.
Spain was finally able to reduce the pressure on herself by negotiating peace with England in 1630 and ending the three-year Mantuan War by dropping claims to the duchy, bringing peace with France in 1631.
