War of Spanish Succession |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Many European countries were involved in the war of the Spanish Succession (1701-1714). Allies of Charles V of Austria, known as “The Grand Alliance”, combined forces against allies of Philip V of Spain, ostensibly to contest the right of Philip V to the Spanish throne, but also in their own interests for political and military gain. | ||||||
