Tomorrow is the feast day of my Region Tomorrow we have holidays in a Region of Spain called "Castilla y León". The feast commemorates the uprising of the people of Castilla against their king, Carlos I. It happened due to various factors. I can describe the following: - The king didn't want to learn spanish. - His advisers and counselors were Dutchmen, foreigners in Spain. - The taxes rose in order to pay for the coronation of Carlos I as "Emperor" in Germany. Because all of the above, people revolted and made an army called "Comunero's army" against their king. After two years of riots the king's army and the Comunero's army fought in "Villalar de los Comuneros". Thousand men died and finally the king won, but that battle is remembered as the day the people rose up against their rules for their lack commitment with their people.

Tomorrow is the feast day of my region

Tomorrow we have holidays in a region of Spain called "Castilla and y León".

The feast commemorates the uprising of the people of Castilla against their king, Carlos I (podrías escribir "Charles I" en lugar). It happened due to various factors, including . I can describethe following:
- The king didn't want to learn Spanish.
- His advisers and counselors were Dutchmen, foreigners in Spain.
- The taxes rose in order to pay for the coronation of Carlos I as "Emperor Charles/Carlos V" in Germany.

Because all of the above, the people revolted and made an army called "comunero's army" against their king.
After two years of riots (rebellion/revolution) the king's army and the comunero's army fought in "Villalar de los Comuneros" the "Battle of Villilard". Thousands of men died, and finally the king won, but that battle is remembered as the day the people rose up against their ruler rules for not caring for their people(?) their lack commitment with their people.

 

Capitalización es complicado en inglés- la guerra se llama "Revolt of the Comuneros", pero el fuerzo se llama "army of the comuneros", o "comunero army".
