Catherine of Aragon was important in European history for a number of reasons. For one, she was the youngest daughter of Spanish monarchs Ferdinand and Isabella (who we also know of who financed Christopher Columbus's voyages to the New World) Catherine would later grow up to be the 1st wife of the infamous King Henry VIII, and her refusal to go for a divorce and retire into a nunnery when Henry fell head over heels for Anne Boleyn led to Henry breaking away from the Catholic Church. And last but not least, Catherine of Aragon was the mother of Mary Tudor, Henry VIII's eldest daughter who would later inherit the throne and earn the nickname 'Bloody Mary'.
I need this question to be answered as well. So I figured since no one can help you and me ( used me right in this sentence because if I took out I it would still make sense, If you dont understand that then forget it just know I used it right ) . SO she influenced history by pooping a lot!

-she was the daughter of Ferdinand of Aragon and Isabelle of Catille
-she was King Henry VIII first wife
-she had 1 daughter called Mary I who became queen of England

Well one of the reasons is that she was Henry VIII's first wife. Also in a way she wasn't technically married to him. Because he couldn't perform intercourse (or rumpy-pumpy) on his brother's widow. Also, refusal to consummate a marriage (again rumpy-pumpy) was grounds for annulment and it still is today. Also, when a marriage is annulled, it really means that the marriage wasn't legal in the first place so in Henry's point of view, he was never married to Catherine of Aragon.
She was called Catherine of Aragon because that was were her father was King of. Her parents collectively owned much of what is now Spain
