Answer:

A. His frequent wars against Protestant and Muslims.

Explanation:

Philip II was a fervent Catholic and it is true that he started many wars to defend the power and influence of the Catholic Church against Protestants and Muslims, but wars cost a lot of money and Philip has already inherited the throne with Spain bordering on bankruptcy. To pay for the wars, he had to borrow money from other nations, which caused a huge expenditure of money, leading to complete bankruptcy in 1598. It took a long period of reforms for Spain to have an efficient economy again.

Compare and contrast Herbert Hoover’s strategy for ending the Great Depression with Franklin
umka21 [38]
Although both presidents used the federal government more than any previous president had to try to get the economy back to full strength, their approaches to ending the Great Depression were different.
Hoover's main goal was to restore confidence in the economy and the banking system. He authorized loans to farmers with the Agriculture Marketing Acting and businessmen wouldn't they wouldn't go bankrupt, they were expected o be paid back. For the most part, he advocated "rugged individualism". He believed government handouts to the poor and unemployed greatly damaged the self-esteem of the recipients. One major Hoover initiative, the Smoot- Hawley Tariff of 1930, proved to be disastrous for the US and world economies. And as the situation in the US deteriorated, the US constitution passed the Emergency Relief and the Reconstruction Act. Hoover disagreed with it and used his powers as president to slow its implementation. He pushed a different bill  that he created, the Reconstruction Finance Act. He plan too little, too late. He lost favor with the American people. 
There is significantly much more that Roosevelt did, I will narrow most down. 
Roosevelt's mandate for change was so sweeping that he immediately went to work to restore the confidence in the US economic system. His program was called The New Deal. Roosevelt's overall strategy for combating the Depression was to provide relief to those who needed it most and to re-structure the US economy from the bottom up. The first thing the did was declare a "Bank Holiday". All banks in the US were closed indefinitely, until the banks and the government could control the situation. Theres so much more but Im sure you don't want a full blown essay.
