Charles V borrowed money from German and Italian bankers and, in order to repay such loans, he relied on the proto-capitalist economy of the Low Countries and on the flows of gold and especially silver from South America to Spain, which caused [[price revolution|widespread inflation]]. He ratified the [[Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire|Spanish conquest of the Aztec]] and [[Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire|Inca]] empires by the Spanish [[conquistador]]es [[Hernán Cortés]] and [[Francisco Pizarro]], as well as the establishment of [[Klein-Venedig]] by the German [[Welser]] family in search of the legendary [[El Dorado]]. In order to consolidate power in his early reign, Charles suppressed two Spanish insurrections (the [[Revolt of the Comuneros|Comuneros' Revolt]] and [[Revolt of the Brotherhoods|Brotherhoods' Revolt]]) and two German rebellions (the [[Knights' Revolt]] and [[Great Peasants' Revolt]]). Crowned [[King of Germany|King in Germany]], Charles sided with [[Pope Leo X]] and declared [[Martin Luther]] an outlaw at the [[Diet of Worms]] (1521).<ref>{{Cite book |last=Smedley |first=Edward |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PINEUKYXHd0C&q=Carolus+defensor+ecllesia&pg=PA626 |title=Encyclopædia metropolitana; Volume 17 |year=1845 |location=London |language=en}}</ref> The same year, [[Francis I of France]], surrounded by the Habsburg possessions, started a conflict in [[Lombardy]] that lasted until the [[Battle of Pavia]] (1525), which led to the French king's temporary imprisonment. The Protestant affair re-emerged in 1527 as [[Sack of Rome (1527)|Rome was sacked]] by an army of Charles's mutinous soldiers, largely of Lutheran faith. After his forces left the [[Papal States]], Charles V [[Siege of Vienna (1529)|defended Vienna]] from the Turks and obtained the coronation as [[King of Italy|King in Italy]] by [[Pope Clement VII]]. In 1535, he annexed the vacant [[Duchy of Milan]] and [[Conquest of Tunis (1535)|captured Tunis]]. Nevertheless, the [[Siege of Buda (1541)|loss of Buda]] during the struggle for [[Hungary]] and the [[Algiers expedition (1541)|Algiers expedition]] in the early 1540s frustrated his anti-Ottoman policies. Meanwhile, Charles V had come to an agreement with [[Pope Paul III]] for the organisation of the [[Council of Trent]] (1545). The refusal of the Lutheran [[Schmalkaldic League]] to recognize the council's validity led to [[Schmalkaldic War|a war]], won by Charles V with the imprisonment of the Protestant princes. However, [[Henry II of France]] offered [[Treaty of Chambord|new support to the Lutheran cause]] and strengthened [[Franco-Ottoman alliance|a close alliance]] with the sultan [[Suleiman the Magnificent]], the ruler of the Ottoman Empire since 1520. Ultimately, Charles V conceded the [[Peace of Augsburg]] and abandoned his multi-national project with a series of abdications in 1556 that divided his hereditary and imperial domains between the Spanish Habsburgs headed by his son [[Philip II of Spain]] and the Austrian Habsburgs headed by his brother [[Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor|Ferdinand]], who was archduke of Austria in Charles's name since 1521 and the designated successor as emperor [[1531 Imperial election|since 1531]].<ref name="auto2">{{Cite book |last=Kanski |first=Jack J. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GwV_DwAAQBAJ&q=Ferdinand+archduke+of+austria+1521&pg=PA50 |title=History of the German speaking nations |date=2019 |isbn=9781789017182 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="auto1">{{Cite book |title=The Holy Roman Empire: A Historical Encyclopedia [2 volumes] |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=arSYDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA36 |last1=Pavlac |first1=Brian A. |last2=Lott |first2=Elizabeth S. |date=30 June 2019 |publisher=ABC-CLIO |isbn = 9781440848568|via=Google Books}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Wilson |first=Peter H. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7wodBQAAQBAJ&q=1556+Austrian+Habsburgs+Soanish+Habsburgs&pg=PR17 |title=The Thirty Years War, a sourcebook |date=2010 |isbn=9781137069771 |language=en}}</ref> The Duchy of Milan and the Habsburg Netherlands were also left in personal union to the king of Spain, although initially also belonging to the Holy Roman Empire.

His mother Joanna, known as ''Joanna the Mad'' for the mental disorders afflicting her, was a daughter of [[Ferdinand II of Aragon]] and [[Isabella I of Castile]], the [[Catholic Monarchs of Spain]] from the [[House of Trastámara]]. The political marriage of Philip and Joanna was first conceived in a letter sent by Maximilian to Ferdinand in order to seal an Austro-Spanish alliance, established as part of the ''[[League of Venice]]'' directed against the [[Kingdom of France]] during the [[Italian Wars]].<ref name="ReferenceA">''Emperor, a new life of Charles V'', Geoffrey Parker</ref> The organization of ambitious political marriages reflected Maximilian's practice to expand the House of Habsburg with dynastic links rather than conquest, as exemplified by his saying "''Let others wage war, you, happy Austria, marry''". The [[marriage contract]] between Philip and Joanna was signed in 1495, and celebrations were held in 1496. Philip was already [[Duke of Burgundy]], given Mary's death in 1482, and also [[heir apparent]] of Austria as honorific [[Archduke]]. Joanna, in contrast, was only third in the Spanish [[line of succession]], preceded by her older brother [[John, Prince of Asturias|John of Castile]] and older sister [[Isabella of Aragon, Queen of Portugal|Isabella of Aragon]]. Although both John and Isabella died in 1498, the Catholic Monarchs desired to keep the Spanish kingdoms in Iberian hands and designated their Portuguese grandson [[Miguel da Paz]] as [[heir presumptive]] of Spain by naming him [[Prince of the Asturias]]. Only a series of dynastic accidents eventually favoured Maximilian's project.<ref>The Habsburgs: The Rise and Fall of a World Power, [[Martyn Rady]]</ref> Charles was born in a bathroom of the Prinsenhof at 3:00 AM by Joanna not long after she attended a [[Ball (dance)|ball]] despite symptoms of labor pains, and his name was chosen by Philip in honour of [[Charles I of Burgundy]]. According to a poet at the court, the people of Ghent "shouted Austria and Burgundy throughout the whole city for three hours" to celebrate his birth.<ref name="ReferenceA"/> Given the dynastic situation, the newborn was originally [[heir apparent]] only of the Burgundian Low Countries as the honorific [[Duke of Luxembourg]] and became known in his early years simply as ''Charles of Ghent''. He was baptized at the [[Saint Bavo's Cathedral|Church of Saint John]] by the [[Bishop of Tournai]]: [[Charles I de Croÿ]] and [[John III of Glymes]] were his godfathers; [[Margaret of York, Duchess of Burgundy|Margaret of York]] and [[Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy|Margaret of Austria]] his godmothers. Charles's baptism gifts were a sword and a helmet, objects of Burgundian chivalric tradition representing, respectively, the instrument of war and the symbol of peace.<ref>''Charles V and the end of the Respublica Christiana'', José Hernando Sanchez</ref> [[File:Bernhard Strigel 003b.jpg|thumb|upright=1.1|right|A painting by [[Bernhard Strigel]] representing the extended Habsburg family, with a young Charles in the middle.]] In 1501, Philip and Joanna left Charles to the custody of his aunt [[Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy]] and went to Spain. They returned to visit their son very rarely, and thus Charles grew up parentless in [[Mechelen]] together with his sisters Eleanora, Maria and Isabella at the Duchess's court. He received education from [[William de Croÿ|Willem II of Croÿ]] and [[Adrian of Utrecht]]. The main goal of their Spanish mission was the recognition of Joanna as [[Princess of Asturias]], given prince Miguel's death a year earlier. They succeeded despite facing some opposition from the Spanish ''Cortes'', reluctant to create the premises for Habsburg succession. In 1504, as Isabella died, Joanna became [[Queen of Castile]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/servlet/SirveObras/95791734217821695203346/p0000017.htm |title=''Cortes de los antiguos reinos de León y de Castilla''; Manuel Colmeiro (1883) |access-date=2012-08-23 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080610055350/http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/servlet/SirveObras/95791734217821695203346/p0000017.htm |archive-date=10 June 2008 |df=dmy }},{{cite web|url=http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/servlet/SirveObras/95791734217821695203346/p0000016.htm#I_38_ |title=XXIII |access-date=2012-08-23 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080610055346/http://www.cervantesvirtual.com/servlet/SirveObras/95791734217821695203346/p0000016.htm#I_38_ |archive-date=10 June 2008 |df=dmy }}</ref> Philip was recognized King in 1506.

Joanna inherited these territories in 1516 in a condition of mental illness. Charles, therefore, claimed the crowns for himself ''[[jure matris]]'', thus becoming co-monarch of Joanna with the title of ''Charles I of Castile and Aragon'' or ''Charles I of Spain''. Castile and Aragon together formed the largest of Charles's personal possessions, and they also provided a great number of generals and [[tercios]] (the formidable Spanish infantry of the time). However, at his accession to the throne, Charles was viewed as a foreign prince.<ref name="History of Spain, Joseph Perez">History of Spain, Joseph Perez</ref> Two rebellions, the [[revolt of the Germanies]] and the [[revolt of the comuneros]], contested Charles's rule in the 1520s. Following these revolts, Charles placed Spanish counselors in a position of power and spent a considerable part of his life in Castile, including his final years in a monastery. Indeed, Charles's motto "Plus Oultre" (''Further Beyond''), rendered as ''[[Plus Ultra (motto)|Plus Ultra]]'' from the original French, became the national motto of Spain and his heir, later Philip II, was born and raised in Castile. Nonetheless, many Spaniards believed that their resources (largely consisting of flows of silver from the Americas) were being used to sustain Imperial-Habsburg policies that were not in the country's interest.<ref name="History of Spain, Joseph Perez"/> Charles inherited the [[Austrian hereditary lands]] in 1519, as ''Charles I of Austria'', and obtained the election as Holy Roman Emperor against the candidacy of the French King. Since the Imperial election, he was known as ''Emperor Charles V'' even outside of Germany and the Habsburg motto ''[[A.E.I.O.U.]]'' ("Austria Est Imperare Orbi Universo"; "it is Austria's destiny to rule the world") acquired political significance. Despite the fact that he was elected as a German prince, Charles's staunch Catholicism in contrast to the growth of Lutheranism alienated him from various German princes who finally fought against him.

The latter territories lay within the Holy Roman Empire and its borders, but were formally divided between fiefs of the [[German kingdom]] and French fiefs such as Charles's birthplace of Flanders, a last remnant of what had been a powerful player in the [[Hundred Years' War]]. As he was a minor, his aunt [[Margaret of Austria (1480-1530)|Margaret of Austria]] (born as Archduchess of Austria and in both her marriages as the Dowager Princess of Asturias and Dowager Duchess of Savoy) acted as regent, as appointed by Emperor Maximilian until 1515. She soon found herself at war with France over Charles's requirement to pay homage to the French king for Flanders, as his father had done. The outcome was that France relinquished its ancient claim on Flanders in 1528. From 1515 to 1523, Charles's government in the Netherlands also had to contend with the rebellion of [[Arumer Zwarte Hoop|Frisian peasants]] (led by [[Pier Gerlofs Donia]] and [[Wijard Jelckama]]). The rebels were initially successful but after a series of defeats, the remaining leaders were captured and decapitated in 1523. Charles extended the Burgundian territory with the annexation of [[Tournaisis|Tournai]], [[County of Artois|Artois]], [[Bishopric of Utrecht|Utrecht]], [[Groningen (province)|Groningen]], and [[Guelders]]. The [[Seventeen Provinces]] had been unified by Charles's Burgundian ancestors, but nominally were [[fief]]s of either France or the Holy Roman Empire.

With Charles, the government became more absolute, even though until his mother died in 1555, Charles did not hold the full kingship of the country. Soon resistance to the Emperor arose because of heavy taxation to support foreign wars in which Castilians had little interest and because Charles tended to select Flemings for high offices in Castile and America, ignoring Castilian candidates. The resistance culminated in the [[Revolt of the Comuneros]], which Charles suppressed. Immediately after crushing the Castilian revolt, Charles was confronted again with the hot issue of Navarre when King [[Henry II of Navarre|Henry II]] attempted to [[Spanish conquest of Navarre#1521 French-Navarrese expedition|reconquer the kingdom]]. Main military operations lasted until 1524, when [[Hondarribia]] surrendered to Charles's forces, but frequent cross-border clashes in the western Pyrenees only stopped in 1528 (Treaties of Madrid and Cambrai). After these events, Navarre remained a matter of domestic and international litigation still for a century (a French dynastic claim to the throne did not end until the [[July Revolution]] in 1830). Charles wanted his son and heir [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] to marry the heiress of Navarre, [[Jeanne d'Albret]]. Jeanne was instead forced to marry [[William, Duke of Julich-Cleves-Berg]], but that childless marriage was annulled after four years. She next married [[Antoine de Bourbon]], and both she and their son would oppose [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] in the French Wars of Religion. After its integration into Charles's empire, Castile guaranteed effective military units and its American possessions provided the bulk of the empire's financial resources. However, the two conflicting strategies of Charles V, enhancing the possessions of his family and protecting Catholicism against Protestants heretics, diverted resources away from building up the Spanish economy. Elite elements in Spain called for more protection for the commercial networks, which were threatened by the Ottoman Empire. Charles instead focused on defeating Protestantism in Germany and the Netherlands, which proved to be lost causes. Each hastened the economic decline of the Spanish Empire in the next generation.<ref>Aurelio Espinosa, "The grand strategy of Charles V (1500-1558): Castile, war, and dynastic priority in the Mediterranean."

[[Pavia]] alone held out, and on 24 February 1525 (Charles's twenty-fifth birthday), Charles's forces led by [[Charles de Lannoy]] captured Francis and crushed his army in the [[Battle of Pavia]]. In 1535, [[Francesco II Sforza]] died without heirs and Charles V annexed the territory as a vacant Imperial state with the help of [[Massimiliano Stampa]], one of the most influential courtiers of the late Duke.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Litta|first=Count Pompeo|title=Famous Italian Families, Stampa di Milano}}</ref> Charles successfully held on to all of its Italian territories, though they were invaded again on multiple occasions during the [[Italian Wars]]. In addition, Habsburg trade in the Mediterranean was consistently disrupted by the [[Ottoman Empire]]. In 1538 a [[Holy League (1538)|Holy League]] consisting of all the Italian states and the Spanish kingdoms was formed to drive the Ottomans back, but it was defeated at the [[Battle of Preveza (1538)|Battle of Preveza]]. Decisive naval victory eluded Charles; it would not be achieved until after his death, at the [[Battle of Lepanto]] in 1571. ===The Americas=== During Charles's reign, the [[Spanish colonization of the Americas|Castilian territories in the Americas]] were considerably extended by [[conquistador]]es like [[Hernán Cortés]] and [[Francisco Pizarro]]. They conquered the large [[Aztec]] and [[Inca]] empires and incorporated them into the Empire as the Viceroyalties of [[New Spain]] and [[Viceroyalty of Peru|Peru]] between 1519 and 1542. Combined with the circumnavigation of the globe by the [[Timeline of Magellan's circumnavigation|Magellan expedition]] in 1522, these successes convinced Charles of his divine mission to become the leader of [[Christendom]], which still perceived a significant threat from Islam.<ref name="Prescott"/> The conquests also helped solidify Charles's rule by providing the state treasury with enormous amounts of [[bullion]].

Up until that point (since at least 1510), African slaves had usually been transported to Castile or Portugal and had then been transhipped to the Caribbean.

They gained a strong foothold in the Empire's territories, and Charles was determined not to let this happen in the Netherlands. An [[inquisition]] was established as early as 1522. In 1550, the death penalty was introduced for all cases of unrepentant heresy. Political dissent was also firmly controlled, most notably in his place of birth, where Charles, assisted by the [[Fernando Álvarez de Toledo, 3rd Duke of Alba|Duke of Alba]], personally suppressed the [[Revolt of Ghent (1539)|Revolt of Ghent]] in mid-February 1540.<ref name="Kamen" /> Charles abdicated as emperor in 1556 in favour of his brother Ferdinand; however, due to lengthy debate and bureaucratic procedure, the Imperial Diet did not accept the abdication (and thus make it legally valid) until 24 February 1558.

Francis actually refused to meet Charles in person, and the treaty was signed in separate rooms.]] Much of Charles's reign was taken up by conflicts with France, which found itself encircled by Charles's empire while it still maintained ambitions in Italy. In 1520, Charles visited [[England]], where his aunt, [[Catherine of Aragon]], urged her husband, Henry VIII, to ally himself with the emperor. In 1508 Charles was nominated by Henry VII to the [[Order of the Garter]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Royal Collection – The Knights of the Garter under Henry VIII |url=http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/microsites/knightsofthegarter/MicroObject.asp?row=21&themeid=455&item=22 |website=royalcollection.org.uk |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive/20111206134156/http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/microsites/knightsofthegarter/MicroObject.asp?row=21&themeid=455&item=22 |archive-date=6 December 2011 |access-date=16 December 2015}}</ref> His [[Garter stall plate]] survives in [[St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle|Saint George's Chapel]]. The [[Italian War of 1521|first war]] with Charles's great nemesis [[Francis I of France]] began in 1521. Charles allied with England and [[Pope Leo X]] against the French and the Venetians, and was highly successful, driving the French out of Milan and defeating and capturing Francis at the [[Battle of Pavia]] in 1525.<ref>Angus Konstam, ''Pavia 1525: the climax of the Italian Wars'' (Osprey, 1996).</ref> To gain his freedom, Francis ceded [[Duchy of Burgundy|Burgundy]] to Charles in the [[Treaty of Madrid (1526)|Treaty of Madrid]], as well as renouncing his support of Henry II's claim over [[Kingdom of Navarre|Navarre]].

France then joined the [[War of the League of Cognac|League of Cognac]] that [[Pope Clement VII]] had formed with Henry VIII of England, the Venetians, the Florentines, and the Milanese to resist imperial domination of Italy. In the ensuing war, Charles's [[sack of Rome (1527)]] and virtual imprisonment of Pope Clement VII in 1527 prevented the Pope from [[Annulment (Catholic Church)|annulling]] the marriage of Henry VIII of England and Charles's aunt [[Catherine of Aragon]], so Henry eventually broke with Rome, thus leading to the [[English Reformation]].<ref name="Holmes1993a">Holmes (1993), [https://books.google.com/books?id=BsV-qSRKAnAC&pg=PA192 p. 192]</ref><ref name="Froude1891a">Froude (1891), [https://books.google.com/books?id=n-Ecc8SnlC0C&pg=PA480 p. 35, pp. 90–91, pp. 96–97] Note: the link goes to page 480, then click the View All option</ref> In other respects, the war was inconclusive. In the [[Treaty of Cambrai]] (1529), called the "Ladies' Peace" because it was negotiated between Charles's aunt and Francis' mother, Francis renounced his claims in Italy but retained control of Burgundy. A [[Italian War of 1536–38|third war]] erupted in 1536. Following the death of [[Francesco II Sforza|the last Sforza Duke of Milan]], Charles installed his son [[Philip II of Spain|Philip]] in the duchy, despite Francis' claims on it. This war too was inconclusive. Francis failed to conquer Milan, but he succeeded in conquering most of the lands of Charles's ally, the [[Charles III, Duke of Savoy|Duke of Savoy]], including his capital [[Turin]]. A truce at [[Nice]] in 1538 on the basis of ''[[uti possidetis]]'' ended the war but lasted only a short time. [[Italian War of 1542–46|War resumed in 1542]], with Francis now allied with Ottoman Sultan [[Suleiman the Magnificent|Suleiman I]] and Charles once again allied with Henry VIII. Despite the conquest of Nice by a [[Franco-Ottoman alliance|Franco-Ottoman fleet]], the French could not advance toward Milan, while a joint Anglo-Imperial invasion of northern France, led by Charles himself, won some successes but was ultimately abandoned, leading to another peace and restoration of the ''status quo ante bellum'' in 1544. A [[Italian War of 1551–1559|final war]] erupted with Francis' son and successor, [[Henry II of France|Henry II]], in 1551. Henry won early success in [[Duchy of Lorraine|Lorraine]], where he captured [[Metz]], but French offensives in Italy failed. Charles abdicated midway through this conflict, leaving further conduct of the war to his son, [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]], and his brother, [[Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor]]. ====Conflicts with the Ottoman Empire==== {{Further|Protestantism and Islam|Habsburg-Persian alliance|Conquest of Tunis (1534)|conquest of Tunis (1535)}} Charles fought continually with the [[Ottoman Empire]] and its sultan, [[Suleiman the Magnificent]].

At the same time, the Muslim [[Barbary corsairs]], acting under the general authority and supervision of the sultan, regularly devastated the Spanish and Italian coasts and crippled Spanish trade. The advance of the Ottomans in the Mediterranean and central Europe chipped at the foundations of Habsburg power and diminished Imperial prestige. In 1536 Francis I allied France with Suleiman against Charles. While Francis was persuaded to sign a peace treaty in 1538, he again allied himself with the Ottomans in 1542 in a [[Franco-Ottoman alliance]].

The text on the left was on the reverse side.]] The issue of the [[Protestant Reformation]] was first brought to the imperial attention under Charles V. As [[Holy Roman Emperor]], Charles called [[Martin Luther]] to the [[Diet of Worms]] in 1521, promising him safe conduct if he would appear. After Luther defended the ''[[Ninety-five Theses]]'' and his writings, the Emperor commented: "that monk will never make me a heretic". Charles V relied on religious unity to govern his various realms, [[Personal union|otherwise unified only in his person]], and perceived Luther's teachings as a disruptive form of [[heresy]]. He outlawed Luther and issued the [[Edict of Worms]], declaring: {{quote|You know that I am a descendant of the Most Christian Emperors of the great German people, of the Catholic Kings of Spain, of the Archdukes of Austria, and of the Dukes of Burgundy. All of these, their whole life long, were faithful sons of the Roman Church&nbsp;... After their deaths they left, by natural law and heritage, these holy catholic rites, for us to live and die by, following their example. And so until now I have lived as a true follower of these our ancestors. I am therefore resolved to maintain everything which these my forebears have established to the present.}} Nonetheless, Charles V kept his word and left Martin Luther free to leave the city. Frederick the Wise, [[elector of Saxony]] and protector of Luther, lamented the outcome of the Diet. On the road back from Worms, Luther was kidnapped by Frederick's men and hidden in a distant castle in [[Wartburg]]. There, he began to work on his German translation of the bible. The spread of Lutheranism led to two major revolts: that of the knights in 1522–1523 and that of the peasants led by [[Thomas Muntzer]] in 1524–1525. While the pro-Imperial [[Swabian League]], in conjunction with Protestant princes afraid of social revolts, restored order, Charles V used the instrument of pardon to maintain peace.

At the [[Diet of Augsburg|1530 Imperial Diet of Augsburg]] was requested by Emperor Charles V to decide on three issues: first, the defense of the Empire against the [[Ottoman–Habsburg wars in Hungary (1526–1568)|Ottoman]] threat; second, issues related to policy, currency and public well-being; and, third, disagreements about Christianity, in attempt to reach some compromise and a chance to deal with the German situation.<ref>Gottfried G. Krodel, "Law, Order, and the Almighty Taler: The Empire in Action at the 1530 Diet of Augsburg." ''Sixteenth Century Journal'' (1982): 75-106 [https://www.jstor.org/stable/2540054 online].</ref> The Diet was inaugurated by the emperor on June 20. It produced numerous outcomes, most notably the 1530 declaration of the [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] estates known as the [[Augsburg Confession]] (''Confessio Augustana''), a central document of Lutheranism that was presented to the emperor. Luther's assistant [[Philip Melanchthon]] went even further and presented to Charles V the Lutheran [[Augsburg confession]]. The emperor strongly rejected it, and in 1531 the [[Schmalkaldic League]] was formed by Protestant princes. In 1532, Charles V recognized the League and effectively suspended the Edict of Worms with the ''standstill of [[Nuremberg]]''. The ''standstill'' required the Protestants to continue to take part in the Imperial wars against the Turks and the French, and postponed religious affairs until an [[ecumenical council]] of the Catholic Church was called by the Pope to solve the issue. Due to Papal delays in organizing a general council, Charles V decided to organize a German summit and presided over the ''[[Regensburg]] talks'' between Catholics and Lutherans in 1541, but no compromise was achieved. In 1545, the [[Council of Trent]] was finally opened and the [[Counter-Reformation]] began. The Catholic initiative was supported by a number of the princes of the Holy Roman Empire. However, the Schmalkaldic League refused to recognize the validity of the council and occupied territories of Catholic princes.<ref>Christopher W.

At the [[Augsburg Interim]] in 1548, he created a solution giving certain allowances to Protestants until the Council of Trent would restore unity. However, members of both sides resented the Interim and some actively opposed it. The council was re-opened in 1550 with the participation of Lutherans, and Charles V set up the Imperial court in [[Innsbruck]], Austria, sufficiently close to Trent for him to follow the evolution of the debates. In 1552 Protestant princes, in alliance with [[Henry II of France]], [[Second Schmalkaldic War|rebelled again]] and the second [[Schmalkaldic War]] began. [[Maurice of Saxony]], instrumental for the Imperial victory in the first conflict, switched side to the Protestant cause and bypassed the Imperial army by marching directly into Innsbruck with the goal of capturing the Emperor. Charles V was forced to flee the city during an attack of gout and barely made it alive to [[Villach]] in a state of semi-consciousness carried in a litter. After failing to recapture [[Metz]] from the French, Charles V returned to the Low Countries for the last years of his emperorship. In 1555, he instructed his brother Ferdinand to sign the [[Peace of Augsburg]] in his name. The agreements led to the religious division of Germany between Catholic and Protestant princedoms.<ref>Tracy, 2002, pp 229-248.</ref> === Patronage of the arts and architecture === Noted Spanish Poet [[Garcilaso de la Vega (poet)|Garcilaso de la Vega]], was a nobleman and ambassador in the [[royal court]] of Charles. He was first appointed "contino" (imperial guard) of the King in 1520. [[Alfonso de Valdés]], twin brother of the humanist [[Juan de Valdés]] and secretary of the emperor, was a Spanish humanist. [[Peter Martyr d'Anghiera]] was an [[Italy|Italian]] [[historian]] at the service of Spain who wrote the first accounts of explorations in [[Central America|Central]] and [[South America]] in a series of letters and reports, grouped in the original [[Latin]] publications of 1511 to 1530 into sets of ten chapters called "decades." His ''Decades'' are of great value in the history of geography and discovery. His ''De Orbe Novo'' (On the New World, 1530) describes the first contacts of Europeans and [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Native Americans]], Native American civilizations in the Caribbean and North America, as well as Mesoamerica, and includes, for example, the first [[Europe]]an reference to [[India rubber]]. Martyr was given the post of chronicler (''cronista'') in the newly formed [[Council of the Indies]], commissioned by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor to describe what was occurring in the explorations of the [[New World]]. In 1523 Charles gave him the title of [[Count Palatine]], and in 1524 called him once more into the Council of the Indies. Martyr was [[investiture|invested]] by [[Pope Clement VII]], as proposed by Charles V, as [[Abbot]] of [[Jamaica]].

Although the [[Catholic Monarchs]] had already altered some rooms of the Alhambra after the conquest of the city in 1492, Charles V intended to construct a permanent residence befitting an emperor. The project was given to [[Pedro Machuca]], an architect whose life and development are poorly documented. At the time, Spanish architecture was immersed in the [[Plateresque]] style, with traces of [[Gothic architecture]] still visible. Machuca built a palace corresponding stylistically to [[Mannerism]], a mode then in its infancy in [[Italy]]. The exterior of the building uses a typically Renaissance combination of [[Rustication (architecture)|rustication]] on the lower level and [[ashlar]] on the upper. The building has never been a home to a monarch and stood roofless until 1957.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://granadainfo.com/alhambra/carlos.htm|title=The Alhambra in Granada: Carlos V Palace|website=granadainfo.com|language=EN|access-date=2018-02-22}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=/alhambra/alhambras_guide/carlos_v_palace|title=La Alhambra de Granada - alhambra.org|last=SL|first=Alhambra Valparaiso Ocio y Cultura|website=La Alhambra de Granada|language=es-es|access-date=2018-02-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161019020400/http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=%2Falhambra%2Falhambras_guide%2Fcarlos_v_palace|archive-date=2016-10-19|url-status=dead}}</ref> ==Marriage and private life== [[File:La emperatriz Isabel de Portugal, por Tiziano.jpg|thumb|left|[[Isabella of Portugal]], Charles's wife. Portrait by [[Titian]], 1548]] During his lifetime, Charles V had several mistresses, his step-grandmother, [[Germaine de Foix]] among them. These liaisons occurred during his bachelorhood and only once during his widowerhood; there are no records of his having any extramarital affairs during his marriage. On 21 December 1507, Charles was betrothed to 11-year-old [[Mary Tudor, Queen of France|Mary]], the daughter of King [[Henry VII of England]] and younger sister to the future King [[Henry VIII of England]], who was to take the throne in two years. However, the engagement was called off in 1513, on the advice of [[Thomas Wolsey|Cardinal Wolsey]], and Mary was instead married to King [[Louis XII of France]] in 1514. After his ascension to the Spanish thrones, negotiations for Charles's marriage began shortly after his arrival in Castile, with the Castilian nobles expressing their wishes for him to marry his first cousin [[Isabella of Portugal]], the daughter of King [[Manuel I of Portugal]] and Charles's aunt [[Maria of Aragon, Queen of Portugal|Maria of Aragon]]. The nobles desired Charles's marriage to a princess of Castilian blood, and a marriage to Isabella would have secured an alliance between Castile and Portugal. However, the 18-year-old King was in no hurry to marry and ignored the nobles' advice, exploring other marriage options.<ref>{{cite web |title=Henry VIII: June 1518, 1–15 Pages 1302–1311 Letters and Papers, Foreign and Domestic, Henry VIII, Volume 2, 1515–1518.

In 1521, on the advice of his Flemish counsellors, especially [[William de Croÿ]], Charles became engaged to his other first cousin, [[Mary I of England|Mary]], daughter of his aunt, [[Catherine of Aragon]], and King Henry VIII, in order to secure an alliance with England. However, this engagement was very problematic because Mary was only 6 years old at the time, sixteen years Charles's junior, which meant that he would have to wait for her to be old enough to marry. By 1525, Charles was no longer interested in an alliance with England and could not wait any longer to have legitimate children and heirs. Following his victory in the [[Battle of Pavia]], Charles abandoned the idea of an English alliance, cancelled his engagement to Mary and decided to marry Isabella and form an alliance with Portugal. He wrote to Isabella's brother, King [[John III of Portugal]], making a double marriage contract – Charles would marry Isabella and John would marry Charles's youngest sister, [[Catherine of Austria, Queen of Portugal|Catherine]]. A marriage to Isabella was more beneficial for Charles, as she was closer to him in age, was fluent in Spanish and provided him with a very handsome dowry of 900,000 Portuguese cruzados or Castilian folds that would help to solve the financial problems brought on by the Italian Wars. [[File:Charles V and Empress Isabella of Portugal, by Peter Paul Rubens.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|right|Emperor Charles V and Empress Isabella. [[Peter Paul Rubens]] after [[Titian]], 17th century]] On 10 March 1526, Charles and Isabella met at the [[Alcázar of Seville|Alcázar Palace]] in [[Seville]]. The marriage was originally a political arrangement, but on their first meeting, the couple fell deeply in love: Isabella captivated the Emperor with her beauty and charm. They were married that very same night in a quiet ceremony in the Hall of Ambassadors, just after midnight. Following their wedding, Charles and Isabella spent a long and happy honeymoon at the [[Alhambra]] in [[Granada]]. Charles began the construction of the [[Palace of Charles V]] in 1527, wishing to establish a permanent residence befitting an emperor and empress in the Alhambra palaces. However, the palace was not completed during their lifetimes and remained roofless until the late 20th century.<ref>[http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=/alhambra/history_alhambra/palacio_carlos_v Palace of Charles V] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160924081126/http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=%2Falhambra%2Fhistory_alhambra%2Fpalacio_carlos_v |date=24 September 2016 }}, Alhambra.org</ref> Despite the Emperor's long absences due to political affairs abroad, the marriage was a happy one, as both partners were always devoted and faithful to each other.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Kamen |first=H. |url=https://archive.org/details/philipofspain00kame/page/2 |title=Philip of Spain |date=29 May 1997 |publisher=Yale University Press |isbn=978-0-300-07081-1 |page=[https://archive.org/details/philipofspain00kame/page/2 2] |author-link=Henry Kamen}}</ref> The Empress acted as regent of Spain during her husband's absences, and she proved herself to be a good politician and ruler, thoroughly impressing the Emperor with many of her political accomplishments and decisions. The marriage lasted for thirteen years, until Isabella's death in 1539. The Empress contracted a fever during the third month of her seventh pregnancy, which resulted in antenatal complications that caused her to miscarry a stillborn son. Her health further deteriorated due to an infection, and she died two weeks later on 1 May 1539, aged 35. Charles was left so grief-stricken by his wife's death that for two months he shut himself up in a monastery, where he prayed and mourned for her in solitude.{{sfn|Kamen|1997|pp=6–7}} Charles never recovered from Isabella's death, dressing in black for the rest of his life to show his eternal mourning, and, unlike most kings of the time, he never remarried.

His abdications occurred at the [[Palace of Coudenberg]] and are therefore known as "Abdications of Brussels" (''Abdankung von Brüssel'' in German and ''Abdicación de Bruselas'' in Spanish). First he abdicated the thrones of Sicily and Naples, both fiefs of the Papacy, and the Imperial [[Duchy of Milan]], in favour of his son [[Philip II of Spain|Philip]] on 25 July 1554. Philip was secretly invested with Milan already in 1540 and again in 1546, but only in 1554 did the emperor make it public. Upon the abdications of Naples and Sicily, Philip was invested by [[Pope Julius III]] with the [[Kingdom of Naples]] on 2 October and with the [[Kingdom of Sicily]] on 18 November.<ref name="Braudel">{{Cite book |last=Fernand Braudel |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=LPp63EKb9moC&pg=PA935 |title=The Mediterranean and the Mediterranean World in the Age of Philip II |publisher=University of California Press |year=1995 |isbn=978-0-520-20330-3 |pages=935–936 |access-date=23 February 2016}}</ref> [[File:Allegorie op de troonsafstand van keizer Karel V te Brussel Rijksmuseum SK-A-112.jpeg|300px|thumb|right|In ''Allegory on the abdication of Emperor Charles V in Brussels'', [[Frans Francken the Younger]] depicts Charles V in the allegorical act of dividing the entire world between [[Philip II of Spain]] and [[Emperor Ferdinand I]].]] The most famous—and only public—abdication took place a year later, on 25 October 1555, when Charles announced to the [[States General of the Netherlands]] (reunited in the great hall where he was emancipated exactly forty years earlier by his grandfather Emperor Maximilian) his abdication in favour of his son of those territories as well as his intention to step down from all of his positions and retire to a monastery.<ref name=Braudel/> During the ceremony, the gout-afflicted Emperor Charles V leaned on the shoulder of his advisor [[William the Silent]] and, crying, pronounced his [[resignation speech]]: {{Quote|When I was nineteen&nbsp;... I undertook to be a candidate for the Imperial crown, not to increase my possessions but rather to engage myself more vigorously in working for the welfare of Germany and my other realms&nbsp;... and in the hopes of thereby bringing peace among the Christian peoples and uniting their fighting forces for the defense of the Catholic faith against the Ottomans...I had almost reached my goal, when the attack by the French king and some German princes called me once more to arms. Against my enemies I accomplished what I could, but success in war lies in the hands of God, Who gives victory or takes it away, as He pleases&nbsp;... I must for my part confess that I have often misled myself, either from youthful inexperience, from the pride of mature years, or from some other weakness of human nature. I nonetheless declare to you that I never knowingly or willingly acted unjustly&nbsp;... If actions of this kind are nevertheless justly laid to my account, I formally assure you now that I did them unknowingly and against my own intention.

His last public words were, "My life has been one long journey." With no fanfare, in 1556 he finalised his abdications. On 16 January 1556, he gave Spain and the [[Spanish Empire]] in the Americas to Philip. On 27 August 1556, he abdicated as Holy Roman Emperor in favour of his brother Ferdinand, elected King of the Romans in 1531.

They remained in the Royal Chapel while the famous Basilica of the Monastery and the Royal tombs were still under construction.

Although Papal coronation was not necessary to confirm the Imperial title, Charles V [[Coronation of Charles V|was crowned]] in the city of Bologna by [[Pope Clement VII]] in the medieval fashion. Charles V accumulated a large number of titles due to his vast inheritance of Burgundian, Spanish, and Austrian realms. Following the Pacts of Worms (21 April 1521) and Brussels (7 February 1522), he secretly gave the Austrian lands to his younger brother [[Emperor Ferdinand I|Ferdinand]] and elevated him to the status of Archduke. Nevertheless, according to the agreements, Charles continued to style himself as Archduke of Austria and maintained that Ferdinand acted as his vassal and vicar.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5OcgAwAAQBAJ&q=Ferdinand+younger+brother+vassal+of+Charles&pg=PA210|title=German Histories in the Age of Reformations, 1400–1650|isbn=9781139481151|author1=Thomas A Brady JR|date=13 July 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5T6uAAAAMAAJ&q=Ferdinand+lieutenant+1521|title = A Treatise on International Law: With an Introductory Essay on the Definition and Nature of the Laws of Human Conduct|last1 = Foulke|first1 = Roland Roberts|year = 1920}}</ref> Furthermore, the pacts of 1521–1522 imposed restrictions on the governorship and regency of Ferdinand.

Following the death of [[Louis II of Hungary|Louis II, King of Hungary and Bohemia]], at the [[Battle of Mohacs]] in 1526, Charles V favoured the election of Ferdinand as King of Hungary (and Croatia and Dalmatia) and Bohemia. Despite this, Charles also styled himself as King of Hungary and Bohemia and retained this titular use in official acts (such as his testament) as in the case of the Austrian lands. As a consequence, cartographers and historians have described those kingdoms both as realms of Charles V and as possessions of Ferdinand, not without confusion. Others, such as the Venetian envoys, reported that the states of Ferdinand were "all held in common with the Emperor".<ref>''Relazione di Germania 1526'' in ''Relazioni degli ambasciatori Veneti al Senato: Germania''</ref> Therefore, although he had agreed on the future division of the dynasty between Ferdinand and [[Philip II of Spain]], during his own reign Charles V conceived the existence of a single "House of Austria" of which he was the sole head.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XsQeBAAAQBAJ&q=House+of+Austria&pg=PA53|title = The Emperor Charles V|isbn = 9781317880820|last1 = Rady|first1 = Martyn|date = 30 July 2014}}</ref> In the abdications of 1554–1556, Charles left his personal possessions to Philip II and the Imperial title to Ferdinand. The titles of King of Hungary, of Dalmatia, Croatia, etc., were also nominally left to the Spanish line (in particular to [[Don Carlos, Prince of Asturias]] and son of Philip II). However, Charles's Imperial abdication marked the beginning of Ferdinand's ''[[suo jure]]'' rule in Austria and his other lands: despite the claims of Philip and his descendants, Hungary and Bohemia were left under the nominal and substantial rule of Ferdinand and his successors. Formal disputes between the two lines over Hungary and Bohemia were to be solved with the [[Onate treaty]] of 1617. Charles's full titulature went as follows: ''Charles, [[by the grace of God]], Emperor of the Romans, forever [[Augustus (honorific)|August]], King of [[Germany]], King of [[Italy]], King of all Spains, of [[Castile (historical region)|Castile]], [[Aragon]], [[Province of León|León]], of [[Hungary]], of [[Dalmatia]], of [[Croatia]], [[Navarre|Navarra]], [[Granada|Grenada]], [[Province of Toledo|Toledo]], [[Valencia]], [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], [[Majorca]], [[Seville|Sevilla]], [[Province of Córdoba (Spain)|Cordova]], [[Murcia]], [[Province of Jaén (Spain)|Jaén]], [[Algarves]], [[Algeciras]], [[Gibraltar]], the [[Canary Islands]], King of both [[Kingdom of Naples|Hither]] and [[Kingdom of Sicily|Ultra Sicily]], of [[Sardinia]], [[Corsica]], [[King of Jerusalem]], King of the Indies, of the Islands and Mainland of the Ocean Sea, Archduke of [[Austria]], Duke of [[Burgundy]], [[Duchy of Brabant|Brabant]], [[Lorraine]], [[Styria]], [[Carinthia]], [[Carniola]], [[Duchy of Limburg|Limburg]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Gelderland]], [[Neopatria]], [[Württemberg]], Landgrave of [[Alsace]], Prince of [[Swabia]], [[Asturia]] and [[Catalonia]], Count of [[Flanders]], [[Habsburg]], [[Tyrol]], [[Gorizia]], [[Barcelona]], [[Artois]], [[Burgundy]] [[Palatine]], [[County of Hainaut|Hainaut]], [[Holland]], [[County of Zeeland|Seeland]], [[Ferrette]], [[County of Kyburg|Kyburg]], [[Namur]], [[Roussillon]], [[Cerdagne]], [[Drenthe]], [[Zutphen]], Margrave of the [[Holy Roman Empire]], [[Burgau]], [[Oristano]] and [[Gociano]], Lord of [[Frisia]], [[Windic March|the Wendish March]], [[Pordenone]], [[Biscay]], Molin, Salins, [[Tripoli]] and [[Mechelen]].''

The museum and its representative rooms . Kiesel Verlag, Salzburg 1981, {{ISBN|3-7023-0113-5}} , p. 30.</ref> ===Literature=== * In {{lang|nl|De heerelycke ende vrolycke daeden van Keyser Carel den V}}, published by Joan de Grieck in 1674, the short stories, anecdotes, citations attributed to the emperor, and legends about his encounters with famous and ordinary people, depict a noble Christian monarch with a perfect cosmopolitan personality and a strong sense of humour. Conversely, in [[Charles De Coster]]'s masterpiece ''[[The Legend of Thyl Ulenspiegel and Lamme Goedzak|Thyl Ulenspiegel]]'' (1867), after his death Charles V is consigned to Hell as punishment for the acts of the [[Inquisition]] under his rule, his punishment being that he would feel the pain of anyone tortured by the Inquisition. De Coster's book also mentions the story on the spectacles in the coat of arms of [[Oudenaarde]], the one about a paysant of [[Berchem]] in ''Het geuzenboek'' (1979) by [[Louis Paul Boon]], while {{Interlanguage link multi|Abraham Hans|nl}} (1882–1939) included both tales in ''De liefdesavonturen van keizer Karel in Vlaanderen''. * [[Lord Byron]]'s ''Ode to [[Napoleon Buonaparte]]'' refers to Charles as "The Spaniard". [[File:Escutcheon of Charles V of Spain MET DT287185.jpg|thumb|right|''Escutcheon of Charles V'', watercolour, [[John Singer Sargent]], 1912. [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]]]] * Charles V is a notable character in [[Simone de Beauvoir]]'s ''[[All Men Are Mortal]]''. * In ''[[The Maltese Falcon (novel)|The Maltese Falcon]]'', the title object is said to have been an intended gift to Charles V. ===Plays=== * Charles V appears as a character in the play ''[[Doctor Faustus (play)|Doctor Faustus]]'' by the Elizabethan playwright [[Christopher Marlowe]]. In Act 4 Scene 1 of the A Text, Faustus attends Court by the Emperor's request and with the assistance of [[Mephistopheles]] conjures up spirits representing [[Alexander the Great]] and his paramour as a demonstration of his magical powers. ===Opera=== * [[Ernst Krenek]]'s opera ''[[Karl V (opera)|Karl V]]'' (opus 73, 1930) examines the title character's career via flashbacks. * In the third act of [[Giuseppe Verdi]]'s opera ''[[Ernani]]'', the election of Charles as Holy Roman Emperor is presented. Charles (Don Carlo in the opera) prays before the tomb of [[Charlemagne]]. With the announcement that he is elected as Carlo Quinto he declares an amnesty including the eponymous bandit Ernani who had followed him there to murder him as a rival for the love of Elvira. The opera, based on the [[Victor Hugo]] play ''[[Hernani (drama)|Hernani]]'', portrays Charles as a callous and cynical adventurer whose character is transformed by the election into a responsible and clement ruler. * In another Verdi opera, ''[[Don Carlo]]'', the final scene implies that it is Charles V, now living the last years of his life as a hermit, who rescues his grandson, Don Carlo, from his father [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] and the Inquisition, by taking Carlo with him to his hermitage at the monastery in Yuste. ===Food=== * A Flemish legend about Charles being served a beer at the village of [[Olen, Belgium|Olen]], as well as the emperor's lifelong preference of beer above wine, led to the naming of several beer varieties in his honor. The ''Haacht'' Brewery of [[Boortmeerbeek]] produces Charles Quint, while [[Het Anker Brewery]] in [[Mechelen]] produces Gouden Carolus, including a Grand Cru of the Emperor, brewed once a year on Charles V's birthday.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles V |url=http://www.pilaarbijter.com/body_pages/Texts/History&Beer/CharlesV.html |publisher=Global Beer Network, Santa Barbara, California, U.S.A. |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927080724/http://www.pilaarbijter.com/body_pages/Texts/History%26Beer/CharlesV.html |archive-date=27 September 2007 |access-date=18 July 2007}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles Quint Golden Blond |url=http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Goud%20Blond |publisher=Haacht Brewery |access-date=19 July 2012 |archive-date=5 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131105023022/http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Goud%20Blond |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles Quint Ruby Red |url=http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Robijn%20Rood |publisher=Haacht Brewery |access-date=19 July 2012 |archive-date=5 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131105023019/http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Robijn%20Rood |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Beers by Het Anker |url=http://www.hetanker.be/pag_en/index_nl.html |publisher=Brewery Het Anker |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070702132119/http://www.hetanker.be/pag_en/index_nl.html |archive-date=2 July 2007 |access-date=18 July 2007}}</ref> Grupo Cruzcampo brews Legado De Yuste in honor of Charles and attributes the inspiration to his Flemish origin and his last days at the monastery of Yuste.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} * [[Carlos V (candy bar)|Carlos V]] is the name of a popular chocolate bar in Mexico.

'jhehehehehehehehehehhehehehe After these events, Navarre remained a matter of domestic and international litigation still for a century (a French dynastic claim to the throne did not end until the [[July Revolution]] in 1830). Charles wanted his son and heir [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] to marry the heiress of Navarre, [[Jeanne d'Albret]]. Jeanne was instead forced to marry [[William, Duke of Julich-Cleves-Berg]], but that childless marriage was annulled after four years. She next married [[Antoine de Bourbon]], and both she and their son would oppose [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] in the French Wars of Religion. After its integration into Charles's empire, Castile guaranteed effective military units and its American possessions provided the bulk of the empire's financial resources. However, the two conflicting strategies of Charles V, enhancing the possessions of his family and protecting Catholicism against Protestants heretics, diverted resources away from building up the Spanish economy. Elite elements in Spain called for more protection for the commercial networks, which were threatened by the Ottoman Empire. Charles instead focused on defeating Protestantism in Germany and the Netherlands, which proved to be lost causes. Each hastened the economic decline of the Spanish Empire in the next generation.<ref>Aurelio Espinosa, "The grand strategy of Charles V (1500-1558): Castile, war, and dynastic priority in the Mediterranean."

It describes the entry of the Pope and the Emperor into [[Bologna]] in 1530, when Charles was crowned as [[Holy Roman Emperor]] by Clement VII.]] The [[Crown of Aragon]] inherited by Charles included the [[Kingdom of Naples]], the [[Kingdom of Sicily]] and the [[Sardinia#Modern history|Kingdom of Sardinia]]. As Holy Roman Emperor, Charles was sovereign in several states of northern Italy and had a claim to the [[Iron Crown of Lombardy]] (obtained in 1530). The [[Duchy of Milan]], however, was under French control. [[Early Modern France|France]] took Milan from the [[House of Sforza]] after victory against Switzerland at the [[Battle of Marignano]] in 1515. Imperial-Papal troops succeeded in re-installing the Sforza in Milan in 1521, in the context of an alliance between Charles V and Pope Leo X. A Franco-Swiss army was expelled from Lombardy at the [[Battle of Bicocca]] 1522. In 1524, Francis I of France retook the initiative, crossing into Lombardy where Milan, along with several other cities, once again fell to his attack. [[Pavia]] alone held out, and on 24 February 1525 (Charles's twenty-fifth birthday), Charles's forces led by [[Charles de Lannoy]] captured Francis and crushed his army in the [[Battle of Pavia]]. In 1535, [[Francesco II Sforza]] died without heirs and Charles V annexed the territory as a vacant Imperial state with the help of [[Massimiliano Stampa]], one of the most influential courtiers of the late Duke.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Litta|first=Count Pompeo|title=Famous Italian Families, Stampa di Milano}}</ref> Charles successfully held on to all of its Italian territories, though they were invaded again on multiple occasions during the [[Italian Wars]]. In addition, Habsburg trade in the Mediterranean was consistently disrupted by the [[Ottoman Empire]]. In 1538 a [[Holy League (1538)|Holy League]] consisting of all the Italian states and the Spanish kingdoms was formed to drive the Ottomans back, but it was defeated at the [[Battle of Preveza (1538)|Battle of Preveza]]. Decisive naval victory eluded Charles; it would not be achieved until after his death, at the [[Battle of Lepanto]] in 1571. ===The Americas=== During Charles's reign, the [[Spanish colonization of the Americas|Castilian territories in the Americas]] were considerably extended by [[conquistador]]es like [[Hernán Cortés]] and [[Francisco Pizarro]]. They conquered the large [[Aztec]] and [[Inca]] empires and incorporated them into the Empire as the Viceroyalties of [[New Spain]] and [[Viceroyalty of Peru|Peru]] between 1519 and 1542. Combined with the circumnavigation of the globe by the [[Timeline of Magellan's circumnavigation|Magellan expedition]] in 1522, these successes convinced Charles of his divine mission to become the leader of [[Christendom]], which still perceived a significant threat from Islam.<ref name="Prescott"/> The conquests also helped solidify Charles's rule by providing the state treasury with enormous amounts of [[bullion]].

The local Spaniards strongly objected because it assumed the equality of Indians and Spaniards. The locals wanted complete control over labor and got it under Philip II in the 1570s.<ref>Josefina Cintrón Tiryakian et al.

Up until that point (since at least 1510), African slaves had usually been transported to Castile or Portugal and had then been transhipped to the Caribbean.

Welser]], in compensation for his inability to repay debts owed. The concession, known as [[Klein-Venedig]] (''little Venice''), was revoked in 1546.

After having paid huge bribes to the electors, he defeated the candidacies of [[Frederick III of Saxony]], [[Francis I of France]], and [[Henry VIII of England]]. Charles was the highest bidder and won the crown on 28 June 1519. On 23 October 1520 he was crowned in Germany and some ten years later, on [[Coronation of Charles V|24 February 1530]], he was crowned [[Holy Roman Emperor]] by [[Pope Clement VII]] in [[Bologna]], the last emperor to receive a papal coronation.<ref name=NH/><ref>Brinckmeier, Eduard (1882).

They gained a strong foothold in the Empire's territories, and Charles was determined not to let this happen in the Netherlands. An [[inquisition]] was established as early as 1522. In 1550, the death penalty was introduced for all cases of unrepentant heresy. Political dissent was also firmly controlled, most notably in his place of birth, where Charles, assisted by the [[Fernando Álvarez de Toledo, 3rd Duke of Alba|Duke of Alba]], personally suppressed the [[Revolt of Ghent (1539)|Revolt of Ghent]] in mid-February 1540.<ref name="Kamen" /> Charles abdicated as emperor in 1556 in favour of his brother Ferdinand; however, due to lengthy debate and bureaucratic procedure, the Imperial Diet did not accept the abdication (and thus make it legally valid) until 24 February 1558. Up to that date, Charles continued to use the title of emperor. ====Wars with France==== [[File:Truce of Nice 1538.jpg|thumb|Francis I and Charles V made peace at the [[Truce of Nice]] in 1538. Francis actually refused to meet Charles in person, and the treaty was signed in separate rooms.]] Much of Charles's reign was taken up by conflicts with France, which found itself encircled by Charles's empire while it still maintained ambitions in Italy. In 1520, Charles visited [[England]], where his aunt, [[Catherine of Aragon]], urged her husband, Henry VIII, to ally himself with the emperor. In 1508 Charles was nominated by Henry VII to the [[Order of the Garter]].<ref>{{Cite web |title=Royal Collection – The Knights of the Garter under Henry VIII |url=http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/microsites/knightsofthegarter/MicroObject.asp?row=21&themeid=455&item=22 |website=royalcollection.org.uk |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://www.webarchive.org.uk/wayback/archive/20111206134156/http://www.royalcollection.org.uk/microsites/knightsofthegarter/MicroObject.asp?row=21&themeid=455&item=22 |archive-date=6 December 2011 |access-date=16 December 2015}}</ref> His [[Garter stall plate]] survives in [[St George's Chapel, Windsor Castle|Saint George's Chapel]]. The [[Italian War of 1521|first war]] with Charles's great nemesis [[Francis I of France]] began in 1521. Charles allied with England and [[Pope Leo X]] against the French and the Venetians, and was highly successful, driving the French out of Milan and defeating and capturing Francis at the [[Battle of Pavia]] in 1525.<ref>Angus Konstam, ''Pavia 1525: the climax of the Italian Wars'' (Osprey, 1996).</ref> To gain his freedom, Francis ceded [[Duchy of Burgundy|Burgundy]] to Charles in the [[Treaty of Madrid (1526)|Treaty of Madrid]], as well as renouncing his support of Henry II's claim over [[Kingdom of Navarre|Navarre]]. [[File:Elderly Karl V.jpg|thumb|Charles in the 1550s, after [[Titian]]]] When he was released, however, Francis had the Parliament of Paris denounce the treaty because it had been signed under duress. France then joined the [[War of the League of Cognac|League of Cognac]] that [[Pope Clement VII]] had formed with Henry VIII of England, the Venetians, the Florentines, and the Milanese to resist imperial domination of Italy. In the ensuing war, Charles's [[sack of Rome (1527)]] and virtual imprisonment of Pope Clement VII in 1527 prevented the Pope from [[Annulment (Catholic Church)|annulling]] the marriage of Henry VIII of England and Charles's aunt [[Catherine of Aragon]], so Henry eventually broke with Rome, thus leading to the [[English Reformation]].<ref name="Holmes1993a">Holmes (1993), [https://books.google.com/books?id=BsV-qSRKAnAC&pg=PA192 p. 192]</ref><ref name="Froude1891a">Froude (1891), [https://books.google.com/books?id=n-Ecc8SnlC0C&pg=PA480 p. 35, pp. 90–91, pp. 96–97] Note: the link goes to page 480, then click the View All option</ref> In other respects, the war was inconclusive. In the [[Treaty of Cambrai]] (1529), called the "Ladies' Peace" because it was negotiated between Charles's aunt and Francis' mother, Francis renounced his claims in Italy but retained control of Burgundy. A [[Italian War of 1536–38|third war]] erupted in 1536. Following the death of [[Francesco II Sforza|the last Sforza Duke of Milan]], Charles installed his son [[Philip II of Spain|Philip]] in the duchy, despite Francis' claims on it. This war too was inconclusive. Francis failed to conquer Milan, but he succeeded in conquering most of the lands of Charles's ally, the [[Charles III, Duke of Savoy|Duke of Savoy]], including his capital [[Turin]]. A truce at [[Nice]] in 1538 on the basis of ''[[uti possidetis]]'' ended the war but lasted only a short time. [[Italian War of 1542–46|War resumed in 1542]], with Francis now allied with Ottoman Sultan [[Suleiman the Magnificent|Suleiman I]] and Charles once again allied with Henry VIII. Despite the conquest of Nice by a [[Franco-Ottoman alliance|Franco-Ottoman fleet]], the French could not advance toward Milan, while a joint Anglo-Imperial invasion of northern France, led by Charles himself, won some successes but was ultimately abandoned, leading to another peace and restoration of the ''status quo ante bellum'' in 1544. A [[Italian War of 1551–1559|final war]] erupted with Francis' son and successor, [[Henry II of France|Henry II]], in 1551. Henry won early success in [[Duchy of Lorraine|Lorraine]], where he captured [[Metz]], but French offensives in Italy failed. Charles abdicated midway through this conflict, leaving further conduct of the war to his son, [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]], and his brother, [[Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor]]. ====Conflicts with the Ottoman Empire==== {{Further|Protestantism and Islam|Habsburg-Persian alliance|Conquest of Tunis (1534)|conquest of Tunis (1535)}} Charles fought continually with the [[Ottoman Empire]] and its sultan, [[Suleiman the Magnificent]].

Suleiman won the contest for mastery of the Mediterranean, in spite of Christian victories such as the [[Conquest of Tunis (1535)|conquest of Tunis]] in 1535.<ref>Bruce Ware Allen, "Emperor vs. Pirate Tunis, 1535." ''MHQ: Quarterly Journal of Military History'' (Winter 2014) 26#2 pp 58-63.</ref> The regular Ottoman fleet came to dominate the [[Eastern Mediterranean]] after its victories at [[Battle of Preveza|Preveza]] in 1538 and [[Battle of Djerba|Djerba]] in 1560 (shortly after Charles's death), which severely decimated the Spanish marine arm. At the same time, the Muslim [[Barbary corsairs]], acting under the general authority and supervision of the sultan, regularly devastated the Spanish and Italian coasts and crippled Spanish trade. The advance of the Ottomans in the Mediterranean and central Europe chipped at the foundations of Habsburg power and diminished Imperial prestige. In 1536 Francis I allied France with Suleiman against Charles. While Francis was persuaded to sign a peace treaty in 1538, he again allied himself with the Ottomans in 1542 in a [[Franco-Ottoman alliance]]. In 1543 Charles allied himself with Henry VIII and forced Francis to sign the [[Peace of Crépy|Truce of Crépy-en-Laonnois]].

The text on the left was on the reverse side.]] The issue of the [[Protestant Reformation]] was first brought to the imperial attention under Charles V. As [[Holy Roman Emperor]], Charles called [[Martin Luther]] to the [[Diet of Worms]] in 1521, promising him safe conduct if he would appear. After Luther defended the ''[[Ninety-five Theses]]'' and his writings, the Emperor commented: "that monk will never make me a heretic". Charles V relied on religious unity to govern his various realms, [[Personal union|otherwise unified only in his person]], and perceived Luther's teachings as a disruptive form of [[heresy]]. He outlawed Luther and issued the [[Edict of Worms]], declaring: {{quote|You know that I am a descendant of the Most Christian Emperors of the great German people, of the Catholic Kings of Spain, of the Archdukes of Austria, and of the Dukes of Burgundy. All of these, their whole life long, were faithful sons of the Roman Church&nbsp;... After their deaths they left, by natural law and heritage, these holy catholic rites, for us to live and die by, following their example. And so until now I have lived as a true follower of these our ancestors. I am therefore resolved to maintain everything which these my forebears have established to the present.}} Nonetheless, Charles V kept his word and left Martin Luther free to leave the city. Frederick the Wise, [[elector of Saxony]] and protector of Luther, lamented the outcome of the Diet. On the road back from Worms, Luther was kidnapped by Frederick's men and hidden in a distant castle in [[Wartburg]]. There, he began to work on his German translation of the bible. The spread of Lutheranism led to two major revolts: that of the knights in 1522–1523 and that of the peasants led by [[Thomas Muntzer]] in 1524–1525. While the pro-Imperial [[Swabian League]], in conjunction with Protestant princes afraid of social revolts, restored order, Charles V used the instrument of pardon to maintain peace.

At the [[Diet of Augsburg|1530 Imperial Diet of Augsburg]] was requested by Emperor Charles V to decide on three issues: first, the defense of the Empire against the [[Ottoman–Habsburg wars in Hungary (1526–1568)|Ottoman]] threat; second, issues related to policy, currency and public well-being; and, third, disagreements about Christianity, in attempt to reach some compromise and a chance to deal with the German situation.<ref>Gottfried G. Krodel, "Law, Order, and the Almighty Taler: The Empire in Action at the 1530 Diet of Augsburg." ''Sixteenth Century Journal'' (1982): 75-106 [https://www.jstor.org/stable/2540054 online].</ref> The Diet was inaugurated by the emperor on June 20. It produced numerous outcomes, most notably the 1530 declaration of the [[Lutheranism|Lutheran]] estates known as the [[Augsburg Confession]] (''Confessio Augustana''), a central document of Lutheranism that was presented to the emperor. Luther's assistant [[Philip Melanchthon]] went even further and presented to Charles V the Lutheran [[Augsburg confession]]. The emperor strongly rejected it, and in 1531 the [[Schmalkaldic League]] was formed by Protestant princes. In 1532, Charles V recognized the League and effectively suspended the Edict of Worms with the ''standstill of [[Nuremberg]]''. The ''standstill'' required the Protestants to continue to take part in the Imperial wars against the Turks and the French, and postponed religious affairs until an [[ecumenical council]] of the Catholic Church was called by the Pope to solve the issue. Due to Papal delays in organizing a general council, Charles V decided to organize a German summit and presided over the ''[[Regensburg]] talks'' between Catholics and Lutherans in 1541, but no compromise was achieved. In 1545, the [[Council of Trent]] was finally opened and the [[Counter-Reformation]] began. The Catholic initiative was supported by a number of the princes of the Holy Roman Empire. However, the Schmalkaldic League refused to recognize the validity of the council and occupied territories of Catholic princes.<ref>Christopher W.

At the [[Augsburg Interim]] in 1548, he created a solution giving certain allowances to Protestants until the Council of Trent would restore unity. However, members of both sides resented the Interim and some actively opposed it. The council was re-opened in 1550 with the participation of Lutherans, and Charles V set up the Imperial court in [[Innsbruck]], Austria, sufficiently close to Trent for him to follow the evolution of the debates. In 1552 Protestant princes, in alliance with [[Henry II of France]], [[Second Schmalkaldic War|rebelled again]] and the second [[Schmalkaldic War]] began. [[Maurice of Saxony]], instrumental for the Imperial victory in the first conflict, switched side to the Protestant cause and bypassed the Imperial army by marching directly into Innsbruck with the goal of capturing the Emperor. Charles V was forced to flee the city during an attack of gout and barely made it alive to [[Villach]] in a state of semi-consciousness carried in a litter. After failing to recapture [[Metz]] from the French, Charles V returned to the Low Countries for the last years of his emperorship. In 1555, he instructed his brother Ferdinand to sign the [[Peace of Augsburg]] in his name. The agreements led to the religious division of Germany between Catholic and Protestant princedoms.<ref>Tracy, 2002, pp 229-248.</ref> === Patronage of the arts and architecture === Noted Spanish Poet [[Garcilaso de la Vega (poet)|Garcilaso de la Vega]], was a nobleman and ambassador in the [[royal court]] of Charles. He was first appointed "contino" (imperial guard) of the King in 1520. [[Alfonso de Valdés]], twin brother of the humanist [[Juan de Valdés]] and secretary of the emperor, was a Spanish humanist. [[Peter Martyr d'Anghiera]] was an [[Italy|Italian]] [[historian]] at the service of Spain who wrote the first accounts of explorations in [[Central America|Central]] and [[South America]] in a series of letters and reports, grouped in the original [[Latin]] publications of 1511 to 1530 into sets of ten chapters called "decades." His ''Decades'' are of great value in the history of geography and discovery. His ''De Orbe Novo'' (On the New World, 1530) describes the first contacts of Europeans and [[Indigenous peoples of the Americas|Native Americans]], Native American civilizations in the Caribbean and North America, as well as Mesoamerica, and includes, for example, the first [[Europe]]an reference to [[India rubber]]. Martyr was given the post of chronicler (''cronista'') in the newly formed [[Council of the Indies]], commissioned by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor to describe what was occurring in the explorations of the [[New World]]. In 1523 Charles gave him the title of [[Count Palatine]], and in 1524 called him once more into the Council of the Indies. Martyr was [[investiture|invested]] by [[Pope Clement VII]], as proposed by Charles V, as [[Abbot]] of [[Jamaica]]. [[Juan Boscán Almogáver]] was a poet who participated with [[Garcilaso de la Vega (poet)|Garcilaso de la Vega]] in giving naval assistance to the [[Isle of Rhodes]] during a [[Turkey|Turkish invasion]]. Boscà fought against the Turks again in 1532 with Álvarez de Toledo and [[Charles I of Spain|Charles I]] in [[Vienna]]. During this period, Boscán had made serious progress in his mastery of verse in the Italian style.<ref> SPAIN THE CENTER OF THE WORLD, 1519-1682 by Robert Goodwin ‧</ref> The [[Palace of Charles V]] was commanded by Charles, who wished to establish his residence close to the Alhambra palaces. Although the [[Catholic Monarchs]] had already altered some rooms of the Alhambra after the conquest of the city in 1492, Charles V intended to construct a permanent residence befitting an emperor. The project was given to [[Pedro Machuca]], an architect whose life and development are poorly documented. At the time, Spanish architecture was immersed in the [[Plateresque]] style, with traces of [[Gothic architecture]] still visible. Machuca built a palace corresponding stylistically to [[Mannerism]], a mode then in its infancy in [[Italy]]. The exterior of the building uses a typically Renaissance combination of [[Rustication (architecture)|rustication]] on the lower level and [[ashlar]] on the upper. The building has never been a home to a monarch and stood roofless until 1957.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://granadainfo.com/alhambra/carlos.htm|title=The Alhambra in Granada: Carlos V Palace|website=granadainfo.com|language=EN|access-date=2018-02-22}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=/alhambra/alhambras_guide/carlos_v_palace|title=La Alhambra de Granada - alhambra.org|last=SL|first=Alhambra Valparaiso Ocio y Cultura|website=La Alhambra de Granada|language=es-es|access-date=2018-02-22|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161019020400/http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=%2Falhambra%2Falhambras_guide%2Fcarlos_v_palace|archive-date=2016-10-19|url-status=dead}}</ref> ==Marriage and private life== [[File:La emperatriz Isabel de Portugal, por Tiziano.jpg|thumb|left|[[Isabella of Portugal]], Charles's wife. Portrait by [[Titian]], 1548]] During his lifetime, Charles V had several mistresses, his step-grandmother, [[Germaine de Foix]] among them. These liaisons occurred during his bachelorhood and only once during his widowerhood; there are no records of his having any extramarital affairs during his marriage. On 21 December 1507, Charles was betrothed to 11-year-old [[Mary Tudor, Queen of France|Mary]], the daughter of King [[Henry VII of England]] and younger sister to the future King [[Henry VIII of England]], who was to take the throne in two years. However, the engagement was called off in 1513, on the advice of [[Thomas Wolsey|Cardinal Wolsey]], and Mary was instead married to King [[Louis XII of France]] in 1514. After his ascension to the Spanish thrones, negotiations for Charles's marriage began shortly after his arrival in Castile, with the Castilian nobles expressing their wishes for him to marry his first cousin [[Isabella of Portugal]], the daughter of King [[Manuel I of Portugal]] and Charles's aunt [[Maria of Aragon, Queen of Portugal|Maria of Aragon]]. The nobles desired Charles's marriage to a princess of Castilian blood, and a marriage to Isabella would have secured an alliance between Castile and Portugal. However, the 18-year-old King was in no hurry to marry and ignored the nobles' advice, exploring other marriage options.<ref>{{cite web |title=Henry VIII: June 1518, 1–15 Pages 1302–1311 Letters and Papers, Foreign and Domestic, Henry VIII, Volume 2, 1515–1518.

In 1521, on the advice of his Flemish counsellors, especially [[William de Croÿ]], Charles became engaged to his other first cousin, [[Mary I of England|Mary]], daughter of his aunt, [[Catherine of Aragon]], and King Henry VIII, in order to secure an alliance with England. However, this engagement was very problematic because Mary was only 6 years old at the time, sixteen years Charles's junior, which meant that he would have to wait for her to be old enough to marry. By 1525, Charles was no longer interested in an alliance with England and could not wait any longer to have legitimate children and heirs. Following his victory in the [[Battle of Pavia]], Charles abandoned the idea of an English alliance, cancelled his engagement to Mary and decided to marry Isabella and form an alliance with Portugal. He wrote to Isabella's brother, King [[John III of Portugal]], making a double marriage contract – Charles would marry Isabella and John would marry Charles's youngest sister, [[Catherine of Austria, Queen of Portugal|Catherine]]. A marriage to Isabella was more beneficial for Charles, as she was closer to him in age, was fluent in Spanish and provided him with a very handsome dowry of 900,000 Portuguese cruzados or Castilian folds that would help to solve the financial problems brought on by the Italian Wars. [[File:Charles V and Empress Isabella of Portugal, by Peter Paul Rubens.jpg|thumb|upright=1.3|right|Emperor Charles V and Empress Isabella. [[Peter Paul Rubens]] after [[Titian]], 17th century]] On 10 March 1526, Charles and Isabella met at the [[Alcázar of Seville|Alcázar Palace]] in [[Seville]]. The marriage was originally a political arrangement, but on their first meeting, the couple fell deeply in love: Isabella captivated the Emperor with her beauty and charm. They were married that very same night in a quiet ceremony in the Hall of Ambassadors, just after midnight. Following their wedding, Charles and Isabella spent a long and happy honeymoon at the [[Alhambra]] in [[Granada]]. Charles began the construction of the [[Palace of Charles V]] in 1527, wishing to establish a permanent residence befitting an emperor and empress in the Alhambra palaces. However, the palace was not completed during their lifetimes and remained roofless until the late 20th century.<ref>[http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=/alhambra/history_alhambra/palacio_carlos_v Palace of Charles V] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160924081126/http://www.alhambra.org/eng/index.asp?secc=%2Falhambra%2Fhistory_alhambra%2Fpalacio_carlos_v |date=24 September 2016 }}, Alhambra.org</ref> Despite the Emperor's long absences due to political affairs abroad, the marriage was a happy one, as both partners were always devoted and faithful to each other.<ref>{{Cite book |last=Kamen |first=H. |url=https://archive.org/details/philipofspain00kame/page/2 |title=Philip of Spain |date=29 May 1997 |publisher=Yale University Press |isbn=978-0-300-07081-1 |page=[https://archive.org/details/philipofspain00kame/page/2 2] |author-link=Henry Kamen}}</ref> The Empress acted as regent of Spain during her husband's absences, and she proved herself to be a good politician and ruler, thoroughly impressing the Emperor with many of her political accomplishments and decisions. The marriage lasted for thirteen years, until Isabella's death in 1539. The Empress contracted a fever during the third month of her seventh pregnancy, which resulted in antenatal complications that caused her to miscarry a stillborn son. Her health further deteriorated due to an infection, and she died two weeks later on 1 May 1539, aged 35. Charles was left so grief-stricken by his wife's death that for two months he shut himself up in a monastery, where he prayed and mourned for her in solitude.{{sfn|Kamen|1997|pp=6–7}} Charles never recovered from Isabella's death, dressing in black for the rest of his life to show his eternal mourning, and, unlike most kings of the time, he never remarried.

Exactly adjacent to them on the opposite side of the Basilica are effigies of their son Philip with three of his wives and their ill-fated grandson [[Carlos, Prince of Asturias]]. ==Titles== Charles V styled himself as Holy Roman Emperor after his election, according to a Papal dispensation conferred to the Habsburg family by [[Pope Julius II]] in 1508 and confirmed in 1519 to the prince-electors by the legates of [[Pope Leo X]]. Although Papal coronation was not necessary to confirm the Imperial title, Charles V [[Coronation of Charles V|was crowned]] in the city of Bologna by [[Pope Clement VII]] in the medieval fashion. Charles V accumulated a large number of titles due to his vast inheritance of Burgundian, Spanish, and Austrian realms. Following the Pacts of Worms (21 April 1521) and Brussels (7 February 1522), he secretly gave the Austrian lands to his younger brother [[Emperor Ferdinand I|Ferdinand]] and elevated him to the status of Archduke. Nevertheless, according to the agreements, Charles continued to style himself as Archduke of Austria and maintained that Ferdinand acted as his vassal and vicar.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5OcgAwAAQBAJ&q=Ferdinand+younger+brother+vassal+of+Charles&pg=PA210|title=German Histories in the Age of Reformations, 1400–1650|isbn=9781139481151|author1=Thomas A Brady JR|date=13 July 2009}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=5T6uAAAAMAAJ&q=Ferdinand+lieutenant+1521|title = A Treatise on International Law: With an Introductory Essay on the Definition and Nature of the Laws of Human Conduct|last1 = Foulke|first1 = Roland Roberts|year = 1920}}</ref> Furthermore, the pacts of 1521–1522 imposed restrictions on the governorship and regency of Ferdinand. For example, all of Ferdinand's letters to Charles V were signed "your obedient brother and servant".<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vZVHAAAAIAAJ&q=Ferdinand+Charles+v+muy+poderoso&pg=PA487|title=Memoirs of the Court, Aristocracy, and Diplomacy of Austria|last1=Vehse|first1=Carl Eduard|year=1856}}</ref> Nonetheless, the same agreements promised Ferdinand the designation as future emperor and the transfer of hereditary rights over Austria at the imperial succession. Following the death of [[Louis II of Hungary|Louis II, King of Hungary and Bohemia]], at the [[Battle of Mohacs]] in 1526, Charles V favoured the election of Ferdinand as King of Hungary (and Croatia and Dalmatia) and Bohemia. Despite this, Charles also styled himself as King of Hungary and Bohemia and retained this titular use in official acts (such as his testament) as in the case of the Austrian lands. As a consequence, cartographers and historians have described those kingdoms both as realms of Charles V and as possessions of Ferdinand, not without confusion. Others, such as the Venetian envoys, reported that the states of Ferdinand were "all held in common with the Emperor".<ref>''Relazione di Germania 1526'' in ''Relazioni degli ambasciatori Veneti al Senato: Germania''</ref> Therefore, although he had agreed on the future division of the dynasty between Ferdinand and [[Philip II of Spain]], during his own reign Charles V conceived the existence of a single "House of Austria" of which he was the sole head.<ref>{{Cite book|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XsQeBAAAQBAJ&q=House+of+Austria&pg=PA53|title = The Emperor Charles V|isbn = 9781317880820|last1 = Rady|first1 = Martyn|date = 30 July 2014}}</ref> In the abdications of 1554–1556, Charles left his personal possessions to Philip II and the Imperial title to Ferdinand. The titles of King of Hungary, of Dalmatia, Croatia, etc., were also nominally left to the Spanish line (in particular to [[Don Carlos, Prince of Asturias]] and son of Philip II). However, Charles's Imperial abdication marked the beginning of Ferdinand's ''[[suo jure]]'' rule in Austria and his other lands: despite the claims of Philip and his descendants, Hungary and Bohemia were left under the nominal and substantial rule of Ferdinand and his successors. Formal disputes between the two lines over Hungary and Bohemia were to be solved with the [[Onate treaty]] of 1617. Charles's full titulature went as follows: ''Charles, [[by the grace of God]], Emperor of the Romans, forever [[Augustus (honorific)|August]], King of [[Germany]], King of [[Italy]], King of all Spains, of [[Castile (historical region)|Castile]], [[Aragon]], [[Province of León|León]], of [[Hungary]], of [[Dalmatia]], of [[Croatia]], [[Navarre|Navarra]], [[Granada|Grenada]], [[Province of Toledo|Toledo]], [[Valencia]], [[Galicia (Spain)|Galicia]], [[Majorca]], [[Seville|Sevilla]], [[Province of Córdoba (Spain)|Cordova]], [[Murcia]], [[Province of Jaén (Spain)|Jaén]], [[Algarves]], [[Algeciras]], [[Gibraltar]], the [[Canary Islands]], King of both [[Kingdom of Naples|Hither]] and [[Kingdom of Sicily|Ultra Sicily]], of [[Sardinia]], [[Corsica]], [[King of Jerusalem]], King of the Indies, of the Islands and Mainland of the Ocean Sea, Archduke of [[Austria]], Duke of [[Burgundy]], [[Duchy of Brabant|Brabant]], [[Lorraine]], [[Styria]], [[Carinthia]], [[Carniola]], [[Duchy of Limburg|Limburg]], [[Luxembourg]], [[Gelderland]], [[Neopatria]], [[Württemberg]], Landgrave of [[Alsace]], Prince of [[Swabia]], [[Asturia]] and [[Catalonia]], Count of [[Flanders]], [[Habsburg]], [[Tyrol]], [[Gorizia]], [[Barcelona]], [[Artois]], [[Burgundy]] [[Palatine]], [[County of Hainaut|Hainaut]], [[Holland]], [[County of Zeeland|Seeland]], [[Ferrette]], [[County of Kyburg|Kyburg]], [[Namur]], [[Roussillon]], [[Cerdagne]], [[Drenthe]], [[Zutphen]], Margrave of the [[Holy Roman Empire]], [[Burgau]], [[Oristano]] and [[Gociano]], Lord of [[Frisia]], [[Windic March|the Wendish March]], [[Pordenone]], [[Biscay]], Molin, Salins, [[Tripoli]] and [[Mechelen]].''

Conversely, in [[Charles De Coster]]'s masterpiece ''[[The Legend of Thyl Ulenspiegel and Lamme Goedzak|Thyl Ulenspiegel]]'' (1867), after his death Charles V is consigned to Hell as punishment for the acts of the [[Inquisition]] under his rule, his punishment being that he would feel the pain of anyone tortured by the Inquisition. De Coster's book also mentions the story on the spectacles in the coat of arms of [[Oudenaarde]], the one about a paysant of [[Berchem]] in ''Het geuzenboek'' (1979) by [[Louis Paul Boon]], while {{Interlanguage link multi|Abraham Hans|nl}} (1882–1939) included both tales in ''De liefdesavonturen van keizer Karel in Vlaanderen''. * [[Lord Byron]]'s ''Ode to [[Napoleon Buonaparte]]'' refers to Charles as "The Spaniard". [[File:Escutcheon of Charles V of Spain MET DT287185.jpg|thumb|right|''Escutcheon of Charles V'', watercolour, [[John Singer Sargent]], 1912. [[Metropolitan Museum of Art]]]] * Charles V is a notable character in [[Simone de Beauvoir]]'s ''[[All Men Are Mortal]]''. * In ''[[The Maltese Falcon (novel)|The Maltese Falcon]]'', the title object is said to have been an intended gift to Charles V. ===Plays=== * Charles V appears as a character in the play ''[[Doctor Faustus (play)|Doctor Faustus]]'' by the Elizabethan playwright [[Christopher Marlowe]]. In Act 4 Scene 1 of the A Text, Faustus attends Court by the Emperor's request and with the assistance of [[Mephistopheles]] conjures up spirits representing [[Alexander the Great]] and his paramour as a demonstration of his magical powers. ===Opera=== * [[Ernst Krenek]]'s opera ''[[Karl V (opera)|Karl V]]'' (opus 73, 1930) examines the title character's career via flashbacks. * In the third act of [[Giuseppe Verdi]]'s opera ''[[Ernani]]'', the election of Charles as Holy Roman Emperor is presented. Charles (Don Carlo in the opera) prays before the tomb of [[Charlemagne]]. With the announcement that he is elected as Carlo Quinto he declares an amnesty including the eponymous bandit Ernani who had followed him there to murder him as a rival for the love of Elvira. The opera, based on the [[Victor Hugo]] play ''[[Hernani (drama)|Hernani]]'', portrays Charles as a callous and cynical adventurer whose character is transformed by the election into a responsible and clement ruler. * In another Verdi opera, ''[[Don Carlo]]'', the final scene implies that it is Charles V, now living the last years of his life as a hermit, who rescues his grandson, Don Carlo, from his father [[Philip II of Spain|Philip II]] and the Inquisition, by taking Carlo with him to his hermitage at the monastery in Yuste. ===Food=== * A Flemish legend about Charles being served a beer at the village of [[Olen, Belgium|Olen]], as well as the emperor's lifelong preference of beer above wine, led to the naming of several beer varieties in his honor. The ''Haacht'' Brewery of [[Boortmeerbeek]] produces Charles Quint, while [[Het Anker Brewery]] in [[Mechelen]] produces Gouden Carolus, including a Grand Cru of the Emperor, brewed once a year on Charles V's birthday.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles V |url=http://www.pilaarbijter.com/body_pages/Texts/History&Beer/CharlesV.html |publisher=Global Beer Network, Santa Barbara, California, U.S.A. |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927080724/http://www.pilaarbijter.com/body_pages/Texts/History%26Beer/CharlesV.html |archive-date=27 September 2007 |access-date=18 July 2007}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles Quint Golden Blond |url=http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Goud%20Blond |publisher=Haacht Brewery |access-date=19 July 2012 |archive-date=5 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131105023022/http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Goud%20Blond |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Charles Quint Ruby Red |url=http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Robijn%20Rood |publisher=Haacht Brewery |access-date=19 July 2012 |archive-date=5 November 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131105023019/http://www.haacht.com/en/Merken/Beers/Keizer%20Karel%20Robijn%20Rood |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Beers by Het Anker |url=http://www.hetanker.be/pag_en/index_nl.html |publisher=Brewery Het Anker |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070702132119/http://www.hetanker.be/pag_en/index_nl.html |archive-date=2 July 2007 |access-date=18 July 2007}}</ref> Grupo Cruzcampo brews Legado De Yuste in honor of Charles and attributes the inspiration to his Flemish origin and his last days at the monastery of Yuste.{{citation needed|date=July 2012}} * [[Carlos V (candy bar)|Carlos V]] is the name of a popular chocolate bar in Mexico.

Charles V borrowed money from German and Italian bankers and, in order to repay such loans, he relied on the proto-capitalist economy of the Low Countries and on the flows of gold and especially silver from South America to Spain, which caused [[price revolution|widespread inflation]]. He ratified the [[Spanish conquest of the Aztec Empire|Spanish conquest of the Aztec]] and [[Spanish conquest of the Inca Empire|Inca]] empires by the Spanish [[conquistador]]es [[Hernán Cortés]] and [[Francisco Pizarro]], as well as the establishment of [[Klein-Venedig]] by the German [[Welser]] family in search of the legendary [[El Dorado]]. In order to consolidate power in his early reign, Charles suppressed two Spanish insurrections (the [[Revolt of the Comuneros|Comuneros' Revolt]] and [[Revolt of the Brotherhoods|Brotherhoods' Revolt]]) and two German rebellions (the [[Knights' Revolt]] and [[Great Peasants' Revolt]]). - -Crowned [[King of Germany|King in Germany]], Charles sided with [[Pope Leo X]] and declared [[Martin Luther]] an outlaw at the [[Diet of Worms]] (1521).<ref>{{Cite book |last=Smedley |first=Edward |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=PINEUKYXHd0C&q=Carolus+defensor+ecllesia&pg=PA626 |title=Encyclopædia metropolitana; Volume 17 |year=1845 |location=London |language=en}}</ref> The same year, [[Francis I of France]], surrounded by the Habsburg possessions, started a conflict in [[Lombardy]] that lasted until the [[Battle of Pavia]] (1525), which led to the French king's temporary imprisonment. The Protestant affair re-emerged in 1527 as [[Sack of Rome (1527)|Rome was sacked]] by an army of Charles's mutinous soldiers, largely of Lutheran faith. After his forces left the [[Papal States]], Charles V [[Siege of Vienna (1529)|defended Vienna]] from the Turks and obtained the coronation as [[King of Italy|King in Italy]] by [[Pope Clement VII]]. In 1535, he annexed the vacant [[Duchy of Milan]] and [[Conquest of Tunis (1535)|captured Tunis]]. Nevertheless, the [[Siege of Buda (1541)|loss of Buda]] during the struggle for [[Hungary]] and the [[Algiers expedition (1541)|Algiers expedition]] in the early 1540s frustrated his anti-Ottoman policies. Meanwhile, Charles V had come to an agreement with [[Pope Paul III]] for the organisation of the [[Council of Trent]] (1545). The refusal of the Lutheran [[Schmalkaldic League]] to recognize the council's validity led to [[Schmalkaldic War|a war]], won by Charles V with the imprisonment of the Protestant princes. However, [[Henry II of France]] offered [[Treaty of Chambord|new support to the Lutheran cause]] and strengthened [[Franco-Ottoman alliance|a close alliance]] with the sultan [[Suleiman the Magnificent]], the ruler of the Ottoman Empire since 1520. - -Ultimately, Charles V conceded the [[Peace of Augsburg]] and abandoned his multi-national project with a series of abdications in 1556 that divided his hereditary and imperial domains between the Spanish Habsburgs headed by his son [[Philip II of Spain]] and the Austrian Habsburgs headed by his brother [[Ferdinand I, Holy Roman Emperor|Ferdinand]], who was archduke of Austria in Charles's name since 1521 and the designated successor as emperor [[1531 Imperial election|since 1531]].<ref name="auto2">{{Cite book |last=Kanski |first=Jack J. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=GwV_DwAAQBAJ&q=Ferdinand+archduke+of+austria+1521&pg=PA50 |title=History of the German speaking nations |date=2019 |isbn=9781789017182 |language=en}}</ref><ref name="auto1">{{Cite book |title=The Holy Roman Empire: A Historical Encyclopedia [2 volumes] |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=arSYDwAAQBAJ&pg=PA36 |last1=Pavlac |first1=Brian A. |last2=Lott |first2=Elizabeth S. |date=30 June 2019 |publisher=ABC-CLIO |isbn = 9781440848568|via=Google Books}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |last=Wilson |first=Peter H. |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=7wodBQAAQBAJ&q=1556+Austrian+Habsburgs+Soanish+Habsburgs&pg=PR17 |title=The Thirty Years War, a sourcebook |date=2010 |isbn=9781137069771 |language=en}}</ref> The Duchy of Milan and the Habsburg Netherlands were also left in personal union to the king of Spain, although initially also belonging to the Holy Roman Empire.

His mother Joanna, known as ''Joanna the Mad'' for the mental disorders afflicting her, was a daughter of [[Ferdinand II of Aragon]] and [[Isabella I of Castile]], the [[Catholic Monarchs of Spain]] from the [[House of Trastámara]]. The political marriage of Philip and Joanna was first conceived in a letter sent by Maximilian to Ferdinand in order to seal an Austro-Spanish alliance, established as part of the ''[[League of Venice]]'' directed against the [[Kingdom of France]] during the [[Italian Wars]].<ref name="ReferenceA">''Emperor, a new life of Charles V'', Geoffrey Parker</ref> - -The organization of ambitious political marriages reflected Maximilian's practice to expand the House of Habsburg with dynastic links rather than conquest, as exemplified by his saying "''Let others wage war, you, happy Austria, marry''". The [[marriage contract]] between Philip and Joanna was signed in 1495, and celebrations were held in 1496. Philip was already [[Duke of Burgundy]], given Mary's death in 1482, and also [[heir apparent]] of Austria as honorific [[Archduke]]. Joanna, in contrast, was only third in the Spanish [[line of succession]], preceded by her older brother [[John, Prince of Asturias|John of Castile]] and older sister [[Isabella of Aragon, Queen of Portugal|Isabella of Aragon]]. Although both John and Isabella died in 1498, the Catholic Monarchs desired to keep the Spanish kingdoms in Iberian hands and designated their Portuguese grandson [[Miguel da Paz]] as [[heir presumptive]] of Spain by naming him [[Prince of the Asturias]]. Only a series of dynastic accidents eventually favoured Maximilian's project.<ref>The Habsburgs: The Rise and Fall of a World Power, [[Martyn Rady]]</ref> - -Charles was born in a bathroom of the Prinsenhof at 3:00 AM by Joanna not long after she attended a [[Ball (dance)|ball]] despite symptoms of labor pains, and his name was chosen by Philip in honour of [[Charles I of Burgundy]].

The main goal of their Spanish mission was the recognition of Joanna as [[Princess of Asturias]], given prince Miguel's death a year earlier.

The culture and courtly life of the Low Countries played an important part in the development of Charles's beliefs.

Joanna inherited these territories in 1516 in a condition of mental illness. Charles, therefore, claimed the crowns for himself ''[[jure matris]]'', thus becoming co-monarch of Joanna with the title of ''Charles I of Castile and Aragon'' or ''Charles I of Spain''. Castile and Aragon together formed the largest of Charles's personal possessions, and they also provided a great number of generals and [[tercios]] (the formidable Spanish infantry of the time).

Indeed, Charles's motto "Plus Oultre" (''Further Beyond''), rendered as ''[[Plus Ultra (motto)|Plus Ultra]]'' from the original French, became the national motto of Spain and his heir, later Philip II, was born and raised in Castile.

Since the Imperial election, he was known as ''Emperor Charles V'' even outside of Germany and the Habsburg motto ''[[A.E.I.O.U.]]'' ("Austria Est Imperare Orbi Universo"; "it is Austria's destiny to rule the world") acquired political significance. Despite the fact that he was elected as a German prince, Charles's staunch Catholicism in contrast to the growth of Lutheranism alienated him from various German princes who finally fought against him.

The outcome was that France relinquished its ancient claim on Flanders in 1528. - -From 1515 to 1523, Charles's government in the Netherlands also had to contend with the rebellion of [[Arumer Zwarte Hoop|Frisian peasants]] (led by [[Pier Gerlofs Donia]] and [[Wijard Jelckama]]).

Following their wedding, Charles and Isabella spent a long and happy honeymoon at the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Alhambra" title="Alhambra">Alhambra</a> in <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Granada" title="Granada">Granada</a>. Charles began the construction of the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Palace_of_Charles_V" title="Palace of Charles V">Palace of Charles V</a> in 1527, wishing to establish a permanent residence befitting an emperor and empress in the Alhambra palaces. However, the palace was not completed during their lifetimes and remained roofless until the late 20th century.<sup id="cite_ref-32" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-32">&#91;32&#93;</a></sup> </p><p>Despite the Emperor's long absences due to political affairs abroad, the marriage was a happy one, as both partners were always devoted and faithful to each other.<sup id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-33">&#91;33&#93;</a></sup> The Empress acted as regent of Spain during her husband's absences, and she proved herself to be a good politician and ruler, thoroughly impressing the Emperor with many of her political accomplishments and decisions. </p><p>The marriage lasted for thirteen years, until Isabella's death in 1539. The Empress contracted a fever during the third month of her seventh pregnancy, which resulted in antenatal complications that caused her to miscarry a stillborn son. Her health further deteriorated due to an infection, and she died two weeks later on 1 May 1539, aged 35. Charles was left so grief-stricken by his wife's death that for two months he shut himself up in a monastery, where he prayed and mourned for her in solitude.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEKamen19976–7_34-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEKamen19976–7-34">&#91;34&#93;</a></sup> Charles never recovered from Isabella's death, dressing in black for the rest of his life to show his eternal mourning, and, unlike most kings of the time, he never remarried. In memory of his wife, the Emperor commissioned the painter <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Titian" title="Titian">Titian</a> to paint several posthumous portraits of Isabella; the finished portraits included Titian's <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Portrait_of_Isabella_of_Portugal" title="Portrait of Isabella of Portugal">Portrait of Empress Isabel of Portugal</a></i> and <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/La_Gloria_(Titian)" title="La Gloria (Titian)">La Gloria</a></i>.<sup id="cite_ref-35" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-35">&#91;35&#93;</a></sup> Charles kept these paintings with him whenever he travelled, and they were among those that he brought with him after his retirement to the Monastery of Yuste in 1557.<sup id="cite_ref-36" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-36">&#91;36&#93;</a></sup> </p> <div class="thumb tleft"><div class="thumbinner" style="width:222px;"><a href="/enwiki/wiki/File:Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg" class="image"><img alt="" src="/upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg/220px-Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="285" class="thumbimage" srcset="/upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg/330px-Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg 1.5x, /upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/89/Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg/440px-Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg 2x" data-file-width="659" data-file-height="853" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a href="/enwiki/wiki/File:Cenotafio_de_Carlos_I_de_Espa%C3%B1a_y_su_familia.jpg" class="internal" title="Enlarge"></a></div>The bronze effigies of Charles and Isabella at the Basilica in <a href="/enwiki/wiki/El_Escorial" title="El Escorial">El Escorial</a>.</div></div></div> <div class="thumb tright"><div class="thumbinner" style="width:222px;"><a href="/enwiki/wiki/File:La_Gloria_(Tiziano).jpg" class="image"><img alt="" src="/upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg/220px-La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="322" class="thumbimage" srcset="/upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg/330px-La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg 1.5x, /upwiki/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/ed/La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg/440px-La_Gloria_%28Tiziano%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1313" data-file-height="1920" /></a> <div class="thumbcaption"><div class="magnify"><a href="/enwiki/wiki/File:La_Gloria_(Tiziano).jpg" class="internal" title="Enlarge"></a></div><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Titian" title="Titian">Titian</a>'s <i>La Gloria</i>, one of the several paintings commissioned by Charles V in memory of his wife Isabella</div></div></div> <p>In 1540, Charles paid tribute to Isabella's memory when he commissioned the Flemish composer <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Thomas_Crecquillon" title="Thomas Crecquillon">Thomas Crecquillon</a> to compose new music as a memorial to her.

Although Papal coronation was not necessary to confirm the Imperial title, Charles V <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Coronation_of_Charles_V" title="Coronation of Charles V">was crowned</a> in the city of Bologna by <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Pope_Clement_VII" title="Pope Clement VII">Pope Clement VII</a> in the medieval fashion. </p><p>Charles V accumulated a large number of titles due to his vast inheritance of Burgundian, Spanish, and Austrian realms. Following the Pacts of Worms (21 April 1521) and Brussels (7 February 1522), he secretly gave the Austrian lands to his younger brother <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Emperor_Ferdinand_I" class="mw-redirect" title="Emperor Ferdinand I">Ferdinand</a> and elevated him to the status of Archduke. Nevertheless, according to the agreements, Charles continued to style himself as Archduke of Austria and maintained that Ferdinand acted as his vassal and vicar.<sup id="cite_ref-56" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-56">&#91;56&#93;</a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-57" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-57">&#91;57&#93;</a></sup> Furthermore, the pacts of 1521–1522 imposed restrictions on the governorship and regency of Ferdinand. For example, all of Ferdinand's letters to Charles V were signed "your obedient brother and servant".<sup id="cite_ref-58" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-58">&#91;58&#93;</a></sup> Nonetheless, the same agreements promised Ferdinand the designation as future emperor and the transfer of hereditary rights over Austria at the imperial succession. </p><p>Following the death of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Louis_II_of_Hungary" title="Louis II of Hungary">Louis II, King of Hungary and Bohemia</a>, at the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Battle_of_Mohacs" class="mw-redirect" title="Battle of Mohacs">Battle of Mohacs</a> in 1526, Charles V favoured the election of Ferdinand as King of Hungary (and Croatia and Dalmatia) and Bohemia. Despite this, Charles also styled himself as King of Hungary and Bohemia and retained this titular use in official acts (such as his testament) as in the case of the Austrian lands. As a consequence, cartographers and historians have described those kingdoms both as realms of Charles V and as possessions of Ferdinand, not without confusion. Others, such as the Venetian envoys, reported that the states of Ferdinand were "all held in common with the Emperor".<sup id="cite_ref-59" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-59">&#91;59&#93;</a></sup> </p><p>Therefore, although he had agreed on the future division of the dynasty between Ferdinand and <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Philip_II_of_Spain" title="Philip II of Spain">Philip II of Spain</a>, during his own reign Charles V conceived the existence of a single "House of Austria" of which he was the sole head.<sup id="cite_ref-60" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-60">&#91;60&#93;</a></sup> In the abdications of 1554–1556, Charles left his personal possessions to Philip II and the Imperial title to Ferdinand. The titles of King of Hungary, of Dalmatia, Croatia, etc., were also nominally left to the Spanish line (in particular to <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Don_Carlos,_Prince_of_Asturias" class="mw-redirect" title="Don Carlos, Prince of Asturias">Don Carlos, Prince of Asturias</a> and son of Philip II). However, Charles's Imperial abdication marked the beginning of Ferdinand's <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/Suo_jure" title="Suo jure">suo jure</a></i> rule in Austria and his other lands: despite the claims of Philip and his descendants, Hungary and Bohemia were left under the nominal and substantial rule of Ferdinand and his successors. Formal disputes between the two lines over Hungary and Bohemia were to be solved with the <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Onate_treaty" class="mw-redirect" title="Onate treaty">Onate treaty</a> of 1617.
