| Sumario: | The objective of this work is to analyse the different aspects of the role that the geographical area of southern Africa in general and the colony of Cape Town in particular began to develop in the imperial strategy of the Hispanic Monarchy. Aspects such as the establishment of the Levant Route to the Philippines, the corsair activity on the coasts of Angola, the English Invasions of the River Plate, or the capture and transfer of Hispanic prisoners to the Cape. This relevant role began to be felt in the first half of the 18th century and reached its peak during the second half and early years of the 19th century. |
