I paid $1.69 for my Snack Size McFlurry (a full ten cents cheaper than the $1.79 charged at my local McDonald's).
What were four reasons for the decline of Spain as a world power? Spain's power began to decline because of the defeat of the Spanish Armada, influx in gold/silver income, much fighting over wealth and losing the battles, and not many coloni â¦ es or vice-royalties to rely on for agricultural income.
Spain then sank rapidly to the status of a second-rate power under the rule of weak Hapsburg kings, and it never again played a major role in European politics. The War of the Spanish Succession (1701â1714) resulted in Spain's loss of Belgium, Luxembourg, Milan, Sardinia, and Naples.
