摘要：Around 1980 there is a new approach to the study of empires and the concept of them. In the period between the abdication of Charles V and the &val of Napoleon in 1804 gains strength the concept of ,,Atlantic Studies" which result from a joint thematic previously called ,,History of European Colonialism." While the definition of empire remains vague and ambiguous, it is now talking about multiple monarchies like Spain and its overseas kingdoms and Ultramarine and European States. In context, Spain and Portugal play a unique role in the investigation, so early in its expansion and medieval history in the reconquest of the peninsula. Both in modern Spain and Portugal, the imperial idea remained without significant alterations, as evidenced by a review of existing literature. These two powers were strongly linked to the papacy as it operated as a basis of legitimacy for expansive imperial policy. Such action gravitated toward cultural and religious border areas, however the facts establish that the expansion in the Iberian Atlantic was a secondaq front in the confrontation with the Turks and North Africa with the barbarians, therefore this topic should not be considered events outside themselves in the Mediterranean.
