The post The Enlightenment in Cantabria first appeared on History Lab.

]]> This documentary delves into the economic and commercial features of 18th century Cantabria. In this context, the emerging prominence of the bourgeoisie, the importance of maritime connections, the opening up of trade with the breaking of the mercantile monopoly with America and the economic growth favoured by the road transport network via the Reinosa road, will be dynamic elements of a historical period in which a whole series of themes related to the process of modernisation in the region of Cantabria at the end of the Ancien Régime are raised and suggested to the viewer. The technological evolution of agriculture, mainly with the improvement of the flour industry, is taken as a guiding thread in the narration of the episode. However, the documentary also argues how the fiscal intentions of the State and the strategic location of the seaport of Santander in the European mercantilist networks would lead to the beginning of a process of industrialisation which would take centre stage well into the 19th century. The chapter also shows in great detail how the flour mills worked and the milling process, detailing the complex machinery used to separate and produce the grain.

]]> Explanatory video outlining the socio-economic and political characteristics of the 17th century in Modern Europe. During this period, Europe was plunged into a deep crisis. Population growth was slowed by successive plague epidemics, wars that led to terrible famines, low agricultural yields and poor harvests. On the other hand, the trade established with America, as well as the network established between Europe and Africa, provided excellent profits. Internationally, England and Holland began to compete with Spain and Portugal, expanding mainly in Asia and attacking Iberian cities and routes with pirates and privateers. France imposed its dominance in Europe over all other nations after the Peace of Westphalia, which ended the Thirty Years’ War in Germany.
