Spain appears as the intended destination of the donatary Simão Gonçalves da Câmara's aborted self-exile, and as the country from which Madeira was asked to send 1,000 soldiers during Castilian rule. It was the origin of many hermit friars who came to Madeira, and the country where the failed 1866 revolution took place.
