Yes. Catherine of Aragon was born in 1485 and died in 1536. Catherine was born in Aragon, Spain, and her parents were King Ferdinand of Aragon and Queen Isabella of Castille. She was Henry VIII’s first wife and was divorced so that Henry could marry Anne Boleyn.

For a wedding ceremony to be seen 'ended" in the Roman Church required an annulment. That took a lengthy procedure and an software to Rome. Catherine had performed no longer some thing to warrant being done. Henry did inspire her to enter a convent, acceptable to Catherine's non secular nature. Catherine would have none of it and maintained that her marriage became valid. Catherine became born a Spanish Princess. Catherine's nephew became the Spanish Emperor; execution ought to very really have resulted in a conflict. It were stated after Arthur's lack of life that Catherine go back to Spain. although, Henry VII didn't want to lose Catherine's dowry--and it became at that element that the idea of her marriage to then-Prince Henry got here about.

To add more information on Catherine of Aragon:
At first she married Henry's older brother Arthur but it is said that Arthur never consumated the marriage and Arthur died very shortly after the marriage to Catherine.
Henry saw his chance to still gain the power, lands, and money from the marriage with Catherine so he stepped up to marry her. This is how he was able to explain why he wanted to divorce her. That in his moment of weakness, he married his own sister (by marriage but was still frowned upon)

Yes and no. She was the daughter of Ferdinand and Isabella, and Castille and Aragon comprise a large part (but not all) of modern Spain. Maybe I'm being too picky. I remember when the US only had 48 states.
