That's why Spanish is the 2nd most spoken language in the World

Spanish history is one of the most interesting of all countries in the world in my opinion. Very nice!

When people talk about the Spanish empire, they always talk about South America but never about North America. Is it because it hurts them? Do you know Mexico is in North America? Have you ever heard of New Spain? California, Nevada, Florida, Colorado, etc.

Some mistakes:
Spain reached to Alaska, it had colonies in Africa and the Habsburg possesions in Europe

If you want to be technical about, the whole British empire belonged to Spain when Phillip the II was around .

Como descendiente espanol me siento orgulloso de mi herencia Espanola y pienzo que ni Espana ni todos los Espanoles tienen de que avergonzarse pues muy pocos imperios dejaron la herencia que Espana dejo y que aun perdura; nuestra herencia en descendientes de Espanol es como sigue; 10 Millones en Canada, 60 Millones en EUA, 130 Millones en Mexico, 50 Millones en Centroamerica y cerca de 220 Millones en Sudamerica mas todo el territorio que ahora ocupan. Tenemos un poder economico como pocas civilisaciones y seguira creciendo y expandiendo Nuestra influencia.

I don't mean to be rude but shouldn't the Spanish Empire include Austria and it's possessions until 1556?

Much of the territory of the United States, was part of the Spanish empire, before the arrival of the pilgrims in the Mayflower, there were already Spanish territories, without doubt Spain is the pioneer.

Muy interesante ver el nacimiento, desarrollo y fin del Imperio Español...También es muy curioso ver que gran parte de los Estados Unidos formaron parte del Imperio Español, que antes de la llegada de los peregrinos del Mayflower ya había colonias españolas en los territorios de los actuales Estados Unidos, sin duda, los españoles fueron los verdaderos pioneros.

I always wished I could visit Havana in like 1700 just to see what it'd be like. I've always been interested in how people lived in colonies back then, minus all the horrible diseases and death of course. Spanish architecture in the colonial era interests me too, the churches built in the New World and etc. I just like to imagine the Spanish music playing on the guitar in public in the Caribbean night, no technology, just you and the city. (andwork) Even places like Lisbon before the earthquake, a huge harbor with one of the largest cities in Europe. I imagine being near the docks with all the sail ships, and the people going about doing their business. Ships bringing in trade from eastern oceans. I just wish I could go back and watch the ships go into the harbor.
