Nothing really of importance was achieved by spain. Not true. The Spanish invented the Spanish olive, Spanish Rice, the Paella pan, Tacos (or was that Mexico), and that cool Zorro mask. I'm sure that there are other contributions but none of this caliber.

Jimbo,
Have you noticed how many folks speak Spanish in the Western Hemisphere?
Not to mention here in Nashville....I'd wager Colonial Spain is worthy of at least an honorable mention in western civilization.
