The Austrian monarchy was heavily involved with colonialism via Spain. However, even nations that didn't directly go out and colonize benefited because the wealth that was taken from abroad was often spent back in Europe buying food, crafts, and services. The sheer amount of it also led to innovations in state institutions and financial instruments/strategies. |
