Philip II of Spain, known in Spanish as Felipe II, was one of the most powerful monarchs of the 16th century and a defining ruler of the Spanish Empire. Born in 1527, he became King of Spain in 1556 and ruled during a period when Spanish influence extended across Europe, the Americas, Asia and the Mediterranean. Under Philip II, Spain reached the height of its global power. His reign saw the expansion and consolidation of Spanish territories, the victory over the Ottoman fleet at the Battle of Lepanto in 1571, the incorporation of Portugal and its overseas empire in 1580, and prolonged conflicts in the Netherlands. A devoted Catholic monarch, Philip became one of the leading defenders of the Counter-Reformation and placed religion at the center of his political rule. His reign was also marked by intense warfare, financial difficulties and the famous failure of the Spanish Armada against England in 1588. From his royal complex at El Escorial, Philip governed a vast monarchy that connected territories across several continents.
