About Europe

EUROPEAN COINS

Over time Europe has been reined by several different Empires including:

·        Spain which had various monachs namely the Kings of the Visigoths, Suebi Kings of Gallaecia, Kings of Asturias, Kings of Aragon, Kings of Castile, Kings of Leon and the Kings of Navarre.

·        Austria’s House of Hapsburg was an important royal house to Europe and is best known as supplying all of the formally elected Holy Roman Emperors between 1452 and 1740, as well as rulers of Spain and the Austrian Empire.

·        The monarchs of France ruled, first as kings and later as emperors but this was only the Bonapartes people, from the Middle Ages to 1870. There is some disagreement as to when France came into existence. The earliest date would be the establishment of the Merovingian Frankish kingdom by Clovis I in 486 with the defeat of Syagrius, the last Roman official in Gaul.

·        After gaining independence from the Ottoman Empire early in the nineteenth century, Greece became a monarchy ruled by representatives of several European royal houses. Domestic politics and relations with neighbour states began a pattern of persistent turmoil.

·        England became a united state in the year 927 and takes its name from the Angles, one of the Germanic tribes who settled there during the 5th and 6th centuries. It has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world being the place of origin of the English language, the Church of England, and English law, which forms the basis of the common law legal systems of countries around the world.

A lot of coins that have originated from Europe bare a head of a leader depicting the current state of parliament to the public.  Also a lot of countries in Europe are known to have their current coat of arms on the reverse of a coin portraying how strong the country is.
