Spain is one of the 11 playable nations in Empire: Total War's Grand Campaign. It is also a major faction in the game.

Overview

The Spanish have long been conquerors and colonisers in distant parts. Indeed, the Spanish and Portuguese signed a treaty in 1494 that neatly divided the world between themselves. The Spanish went conquering “for God, Spain and to get rich”. They succeeded, to a great degree, in all three aims.

Spain is a staunchly Catholic country, and the Church and the fearsome Spanish Inquisition still have their hold over men’s hearts. This partly explains why, for all its wealth, Spain is economically backward: the Church sees usury (money lending) as sinful. This may be so, but this lack of credit does not help the merchant classes. Economic growth is also not helped when it is beneath the dignity of any hidalgo gentleman to earn money or work. But a gentleman’s honour is worth defending and a nation’s glory is worth winning, so courage is not in short supply. Indeed, Spain is blessed with courageous men on both land and sea.

That Spain will need defending, and soon, is self-evident to many. Charles II, “El Hechizado” or “the Bewitched” is a feeble-minded and pathetic figure, a shadow of his Hapsburg ancestors, and childless. Spain has suffered from his weakness of mind and government, but Charles cannot live forever. When he dies, what forces will shape the destiny of the Empire? Will Spain once again face its Protestant rivals down? Will there be a new generation of conquistadores to plant the Spanish flag on distant shores? His successor will have much to ponder, but a brave nation to lead back to greatness!

Details

Spain has access to superior light infantry, such as guerrillas. Spain also begins the game with light infantry, although they cannot yet utilize light infantry behavior which makes them quite inferior to the final version. Spain also have access to galleons, expensive but superior trade ships.

Starting Position

Spain starts with the provinces Spain, Gibraltar, Lombardy, Belgium, Naples & Sicily and Sardinia in the European theatre, New Spain, Guatamala, Panama, New Granada, New Andalucia, Florida, Cuba and Hispaniola in the American theatre and no possessions in the Indian theatre. At the beginning of the game, the Spanish are allied to the French. Furthermore, the Spanish have a protecterate in New Spain, which can be made to join the Spanish Empire by completing the mission of taking Texas, Curaçao and Trinidad & Tobago. This is similar to the British and French missions that cause the Thirteen Colonies and Louisiana to join each of them respectively. On top of that, they have with trade agreements with New Spain, their protectorate, and their ally France.

The Spanish lands are widespread, and its protectorate, New Spain, is the richest in the Americas. Unfortunately, Spain is hampered by a poor monarch and ministers, and its disconnected lands can prove challenging to protect. In particular, the Dutch often attack Flanders, while the various nations that occupy the Italian peninsula can attack Spanish lands there with impunity. Spain itself has troublesome neighbors, the Portuguese and the Moroccans.

Spain's situation in America is also tenuous at best. The Pueblo Nations, Pirates, Cherokee, and the British all stand in the way of Spanish expansion. In order to succeed, Spain must defeat its opponents soundly in both arenas.

Politically speaking, the Spanish have few friends. Protestant nations disdain it for its Catholicism, while many Catholic nations, such as Austria, are historically unfriendly. Those few Catholic nations that are friendly towards Spain, the Italian States and Genoa, inexplicably almost always declare war on Spain within the first few turns. All Muslim nations are hostile towards Spain due to historical grievances. Fortunately, Spain has one very powerful and reliable ally: France. With a little Spanish help, the French can defeat nearly any opponent vying for entry into the Iberian peninsula from the North. In addition, the French navy is very active, and will prove a useful ally in dealing with British, Pirate, and Barbary ships.

Units

Artillery

Infantry

Cavalry

Navy

Spain fields an army which is similar to that of most other European nations. The kingdom's army consists of units such as line infantry, light infantry, hussars, militia and several standard artillery units. Later on, Spain gets access to stronger units such as guards and household cavalry. If a lower-class revolution succeeds in turning the absolute monarchy into a republic, Spain will be capable of training weak conscript units as well. The Spanish can also train a limited amount of elite guerrilla infantry.

Spain's navy has had its days but it is still rather big and on a level which is compareable to that of most other nations. It consists of the standard lineup which most other factions share. The Spanish fleet includes trade ships, weaker ones such as brigs and sloops but also strong first and second rate.

Special Units

Spain has access to several special units, such as Cazadores, Frontiersmen, the Irish Brigade and "Corso Terrestre" Guerillas, as well as the very powerful galleon trade ships - their power is comparable to a fourth rate ship of the line. While Spain's neighbor Portugal shares some of these units, they can still be considered unique.

-Spain has been an important kingdom in Europe for many centuries. The Catholic kingdom was the first major colonial power, conquering the Caribbean, Central America and vast parts of Southern America and North America. However, the country's power has been declining in recent times. Pirates kept plundering the treasure ships which were supposed to bring the wealth of the Americas to Spain itself. Other powers like [[Great Britain (ETW Faction)|Great Britain]] and [[France (ETW Faction)|France]] have begun colonizing the New World as well, often resulting in conflict with the Spanish. Not long ago, the [[United Provinces (ETW Faction)|United Provinces]] became independant from Spanish rule as well which further weakened the kingdom. On top of all of these problems, the incompetent Spanish king Charles II doesn't have any heirs, and thus Spain's future lies in the shadows.

-However, Spain is still a great power. Its Empire ranges from southern Italy and Flanders in the east up to huge colonies in the Americas. The kingdom's lands are fertile and rich. Furthermore, the powerful French have become Spanish allies which strengthens the country's power in Europe. Therefore, Spain still has many opportunities, despite its internal problems and the conflicts in the new World. However, in order to become a leading power again, Spain has to reclaim its place amongst the other nations - by force, if necessary.
