Europe, 1453-1492.

The Middle Ages were coming to a dramatic close at the siege of Constantinople. This pilot episode deals very briefly with what Europe looks like at this crucial turning point, and sets the scene for future episodes. We look at the Reconquista's effects on Spanish imperialism, the consolidation of the Tudor dynasty in England, and the eventful reign of Charles VIII of France.
