Background |
| |
Philip was born the son of Charles I of Spain and his consort Isabella of Portugal just as the phenomenal loot stolen from the New World and the burgeoning joint venture of the Global Slave Trade with the Vatican were bringing huge profits to the Habsburgs and Spain. |
| |
In 1554, at the age of 27 |
| |
As had become Habsburg tradition of incestuous marriage, in 1544 Philip married his sixteen year old double cousin Maria Manuela, daughter of King John III of Portugal. However, she died soon after giving birth to a deformed son Charles (Carlos) in August 1545. |
| |
In the same year, the infamous Council of Trent was convened by his father and the family business partner the Holy See (Roman Cult) to come up with a plan to completely destroy the Counter Reformation. Apart from ending the Lutheran movement, a key goal was the restoration of England to the Papacy. |
| |
An opportunity emerged two years later when King Henry VIII died in 1547, aged 56. His daughter, unmarried Mary, herself the Habsburg daughter of Catherine of Aragon --as the eldest living heir-- became the new Queen of England. Charles then directed his son to immediate begin the protocols of courtship with Mary |
| |
Upon the death of Queen Mary in 1558, Philip once again found himself in the position of serial widower and now secured a marriage in 1559 to Élisabeth of Valois --the eldest daughter of King Henry II of France and Catherine de' Medici. However, Elizabeth was plagued with her own difficulties in several miscarriages, eventually dying the following day after yet another miscarriage in October 1568. |
| |
Once again finding himself a widower, Philip remarried for the fourth time with his niece Anna of Austria, daughter of Maximillian II, Holy Roman Emperor in May 1570. |
