The purpose of this study is double. Firstly, it aims to complete our knowledge about the life and activity of the Spanish mercenary Bernardo de Aldana (1548-1552). Secondly, it will place his personality and activity in a historical context, demonstrating that the presence of a Spanish regiment in Hungary was not an isolated case. It was part of the military policy of Charles V, who frequently sent Spanish troops in order to strengthen the position of his brother Ferdinand. The struggle between the Hapsburg and Ottoman empires cannot be understood on a national or regional level without taking into account the international context: the anti-Turkish campaigns of two distant areas, Spain and Hungary.
