Hi everybody!!
Today in social sciences we reviewed what we studied the previous class about the Spanish Succession War.
We reviewed about the development of the war and when the Emperor of Austia died, the Archduke Charles became Emperor.
The Archduke was supported by the Crown of Aragón.
Finally every sides looked for an international agreement to end the war and they signed the Treaty of Utrecht.
