  • Philip III of Spain
rdfs:comment
  • Philip III (14 April 1578 – 31 March 1621), Felipe in Spanish, was the King of Spain and King of Portugal and the Algarves, where he ruled as Filipe II, from 1598 until his death. Born in Madrid, the son of Philip II, he shared the viewpoints and beliefs of his father, but did not inherit his industry. The hardworking and diligent old king had sorrowfully confessed that God had not given him a son capable of governing his vast dominions, and that he had foreseen that Philip III would be led by his servants. This assessment of his son ultimately proved correct, as Philip's reign saw the beginning of the decline of the Spanish Empire.
