The request for extraordinary sums of money called gifts, in order to cover cats derived mainly from the maintenance of troops during the military campaigns and the supply of the Navy, was a custom put in place since Felipe II came under way and continued by his successors. Carlos II wanted to ease the tax burden by removing extraordinary demands for money. However, at the time of war conflicts, the only possible resource was gift, since the remainder of the sums collected had already been committed to other groups. The city of Seville, which had been characterised by the generosity of the donations offered to the King, did not already have economic power at the time of Carlos II and had great difficulties in collecting the amounts offered and at the same time coping with the gifts of the previous reindeer still pending, as the arbiters imposed did not give the fruit attached to it. Therefore, at the end of the xvii century there was no solution other than to limit this form of extraordinary contribution to Monarchia to a maximum. The request for an extra amount of money, called donative, in order to meet the expenses originated by the maintenance of troops during the military campaigns and the suppression of the Navy, was a practice held from Philipp ITS reign and continued by his successors. In Charles ii’s reign, a Lessening of tax pression was intended, by means of means of removing the demands of extra money. But, in the quantification of war conflicts, the only possible resources are the donations, trainees the other taxes had been used for other needs. Seville, which would stand out for the Generosity of its donations, had not the same economic power as in past times, and was in great trouble to collect the money for the new and the oíd financial help granted to the king, trainees the taxes did not produce the expected results. Therefore, at the end of the Seventeenth century there was no other solution but reducing to the greatest extent this way of extra contribution to the Monarchy.
