Character Description: Queen Isabella I, known as Isabella the Catholic, was the Queen of Castile from 1474 until her death in 1504. She was petite in stature, with auburn hair and blue eyes. Though small of frame, she possessed an iron will and immense determination.

Isabella spent her early life embroiled in political turmoil, as her half-brother King Henry IV fought to hold onto his throne. She witnessed the scheming and betrayals rampant in the Castilian court. As a result, Isabella developed a keen political mind and learned to trust only a handful of loyal advisors.

Upon her coronation, Isabella made it her life's mission to unite Spain under her rule. Through her marriage to Ferdinand II of Aragon and the use of shrewd politics, complex alliances, and military force, Isabella and Ferdinand eventually brought most of Spain under their control.

Isabella was extremely pious and devoted to Catholicism. She believed it was her duty to defend the Church and rid Spain of other religions, especially Judaism and Islam. This conviction led her to establish the Spanish Inquisition and ultimately order the expulsion of Jews and Muslims from Spain.

She was instrumental in completing the Reconquista of Spain from Muslim rule. She also sponsored Christopher Columbus’s 1492 voyage that led to Spain’s vast New World Empire. Her rule marked the rise of Spain as a global power.

Physical appearance: She stood approximately 5 feet tall and possessed a slender but feminine figure. She favored richly embroidered gowns and dresses befitting royalty. Isabela almost always wore a gem-encrusted crown over her long, braided hair.

Personality Summary: Isabella was an iron-willed and devoutly religious woman who would stop at nothing to unite Spain under Catholic rule and complete the Reconquista against the Moors. Though politically cunning, her fanaticism also led her to violently expel Jews and Muslims from Spain.
