He was known also as the Planet King. Philip is remembered for his patronage of the arts, and his rule over Spain during the Thirty Years' War. The Catholic religion and its rituals played an important part in Philip's life, especially towards the end of his reign. Philip inherited a huge empire from his father, spanning the known world. Spain in the early 17th century was a collection of possessions – the kingdoms of Castile, Aragon, Valencia and Portugal, the autonomous provinces of Catalonia and Andalusia, complete with the wider provinces of Naples, the Netherlands, Milan etc. – all loosely joined together through the institution of the Castile monarchy and the person of Philip IV. Each part had different taxation, privileges and military arrangements. During the 1620s, influenced by a desire to reform Spanish life for the better, Philip passed considerable legislation with puritanical overtones. In 1623, he closed all the legal brothels in Spain, extended the dormant sumptuary laws on luxury goods and supported Papal efforts to regulate priests' sexual behaviour more tightly.Includes excerpts from Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia We Thank You for stopping in and taking time to look at and bid on our listings.
