Biography of Isabella I, Queen of Spain
Isabella I of Spain (April 22, 1451–November 26, 1504) was the queen of Castile and León in her own right and, through marriage, became the queen of Aragon. She married Ferdinand II of Aragon, bringing the kingdoms together into what became Spain under the rule of her grandson Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor. She sponsored Columbus' voyages to the Americas and was known as "Isabel la Catolica," or Isabella the Catholic, for her role in "purifying" the Roman Catholic faith by expelling Jews from her lands and defeating the Moors.
