Well we are doing a project on empire building and we had to answer a couple of questions. I looked all over the internet and I can't find answers to these four questions. this is due tomorrow so I'm really desperate. Can someone help me out? My empire is the Spanish Empire and all of the answers have to be applicable to the the Early Modern Period (between 1450 and 1750).

Question

1. How is the government of the Spanish Empire oganized?

2. What kind of social structure does Spain have? Is there social mobility in Spain? If so how? If not why?

3. What is the basis of the Spanish economic system?

4. Did the Spanish empire have written laws and if so upon what were they based?

Thank You
