Filippo V di Spagna (Versailles, 19 dicembre 1683 – Madrid, 9 luglio 1746) è stato il primo re di Spagna della dinastia dei Borbone, nonché Re di Napoli, di Sicilia e di Sardegna.

Era nipote del re Luigi XIV di Francia e salì al trono di Spagna nel 1700 perché sua nonna, la regina Maria Teresa, moglie del Re Sole nonché cugina prima, era figlia di primo letto di Filippo IV di Spagna e sorellastra dell'ultimo re spagnolo della dinastia degli Asburgo, Carlo II d'Asburgo. Filippo V era pronipote e cugino di quest'ultimo, in quanto il nonno Luigi XIV e Carlo II erano cugini di primo grado, nipoti di Filippo III di Spagna. La corona gli fu contesa dall'imperatore Carlo VI d'Asburgo (Carlo III) con la guerra di successione spagnola che si concluse con il trattato di Utrecht (1713). In seguito abdicò in favore del figlio Luigi I ma alla morte di questi ritornò sul trono.

Maria Luisa Gabriella of Savoy (17 September 1688 – 14 February 1714), nicknamed La Savoyana, was Queen of Spain by marriage to King Philip V. She acted as regent during her husband's absence from 1702 until 1703 and had great influence as a political adviser during the War of the Spanish Succession, during which she was often regent while Philip fought to protect his legitimacy and his place on the throne. Despite her young age, Maria Luisa proved herself to be mature, intelligent, hard-working and resolute, and her regencies were effective, winning the respect of her subjects and becoming very popular and well-loved by her people. At the end of the War of Spanish Succession, Philip V was recognised as King of Spain, establishing the Spanish branch of the House of Bourbon, which still rules over Spain to this day. Two of her four sons, Louis I and Ferdinand VI, took their turns as King of Spain. Maria Luisa died from tuberculosis at just 25.

Elisabeth Farnese (Italian: Elisabetta Farnese, Spanish: Isabel de Farnesio; 25 October 1692 – 11 July 1766) was Queen of Spain by marriage to King Philip V. She was the de facto ruler of Spain from 1714 until 1746, since she managed the affairs of state with the approval of her spouse. She is particularly known for her great influence over Spain's foreign policy. From 1759 to 1760, she governed as regent.
