It’s a 4000 words essay, the topic is “The first Spanish civil war 1704-1714”
“There are a few biographies of King Philip V of Spain you can read to start, and you will need something on the rebellion of Catalonia and Barcelona. Be careful not to stray too far from the centre of thetopic, which is focused on Castile and Catalonia/Valencia. British, Dutch, Portuguese, Imperial contingents made the uprising possible, and Philip could not have prevailed without French support, but you need to assess primarily the reasons people chose the king or resisted him, and the ability of the Bourbon regime to rally the population and raise its taxes.”
