Economic History of Spain - 1822 To 1898

1822 To 1898

The economy was heavily focused around agricultural goods. The period saw some industrialization in Catalonia and the Basque Country and the construction of railways in the second half of the nineteenth century helped alleviate some of the isolation of the interior but generally little changed for much of the country as political instability, uprisings and unstable governments slowed or undermined economic progress.
