Charles V divided the Hapsburg Empire because he faced constant warfare and lengthy communication problems. The empire was constantly engaged in conflicts and wars, which made it difficult for Charles V to effectively govern and maintain control over the entire empire. Additionally, the vast size of the empire posed challenges in terms of communication and administration, leading to delays and inefficiencies. Dividing the empire allowed for more localized governance and management, potentially addressing these issues and making it easier to govern the territories effectively.
