Gonzalo Sánchez Of Aragon
Gonzalo Sánchez (died 997?) was a younger son of King Sancho II of Pamplona and Queen Urraca Fernández. His elder brother was King García II and he had another brother, Ramiro, and a sister who would marry Almanzor. In 996–97, he was ruling the county of Aragon alongside his mother. In 994, Gonzalo was sent by his father as an envoy to the court of his brother-in-law Almanzor. Only two documents from the years 996 and 997 make mention of Gonzalo's rule in Aragon. Both were issued by King García II and include a clause specifying that at that time "my mother Queen Urraca and my brother Gonzalo ere Ere or ERE may refer to: * ''Environmental and Resource Economics'', a peer-reviewed academic journal * ERE Informatique, one of the first French video game companies * Ere language, an Austronesian language * Ebi Ere (born 1981), American-Nigeria ...ruling in Aragon."

Sancho II Of Pamplona
Sancho Garcés II (Basque: ''Antso II.a Gartzez'', c. 938 – 994), also known as Sancho II, was King of Pamplona and Count of Aragon from 970 until his death in 994. He was the eldest son of García Sánchez I of Pamplona and Andregoto Galíndez. He recognised the Kingdom of Viguera during his reign. Nickname He is sometimes referred to as Sancho ''Abarca'' by modern sources. This appellation was first applied to Sancho II by chroniclers writing centuries after his time who were confused about the succession to Pamplona, creating a single ruler out of the combined careers of Sancho II and his grandfather Sancho I of Pamplona. The weight of evidence suggests that this nickname originally applied to Sancho I. Biography Sancho Garcés was born circa 938, son of García Sánchez I of Pamplona, the second King of Pamplona from the Jiménez dynasty, and his first wife Andregoto Galíndez, daughter of Galindo Aznárez II, Count of Aragon. His maternal grandfather died w ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

García Sánchez II Of Pamplona
García Sánchez II (Basque: ''Gartzea II.a Santxez''; died ), was King of Pamplona and Count of Aragon from 994 until his death . He was the eldest son of Sancho II of Pamplona and Urraca Fernández and the second Pamplonese monarch to also hold the title of count of Aragon. Modern historians refer to him as ''the Tremulous'', though this appellation likely originally applied to his grandfather, García Sánchez I of Pamplona. Biography Throughout his reign, his foreign policy seems to have been closely linked to that of Castile. His mother was an aunt of count Sancho García of Castile, and also of the powerful count of Saldaña, García Gómez of Carrión, and she appears to have played a role in forming a bridge between the kingdom and county. He joined his cousin Sancho in attempting to break from the submission his father had offered to Córdoba, as a result of which he had to face Almanzor. In 996 he was forced to seek peace in Córdoba.

County Of Aragon
The County of Aragon () or County of Jaca () was a small Franks, Frankish Marches, marcher county in the central Pyrenees, Pyrenean valley of the Aragon river, comprising Ansó, Echo, Aragón, Spain, Echo, and Canfranc and centered on the small town of Jaca (''Iacca'' in Latin language, Latin and ''Chaca'' in Aragonese language, Aragonese), an area now part of Spain. It was created by the Carolingians late in the 8th or early in the 9th century, but soon fell into the orbit of the Kingdom of Navarre, into which it was absorbed in 922. It would later form the core of the 11th century Kingdom of Aragon. Carolingian rule Originally intended to protect the central Pyrenean passes from the Moors in the same way that the Duchy of Vasconia and the Marca Hispanica were to protect the west and east, Aragon remained largely out of the reach of its nominal Carolingian lords, though it was an expressly Frankish creation and not an ethnically distinct region.

García Sánchez I Of Pamplona
García Sánchez I (Basque: ''Gartzea I.a Santxez''; 919 – 22 February 970), was the king of Pamplona from 925 until his death in 970.

Fortún Jiménez (count)
Fortún Jiménez ( 943–58) was the count of Aragon at least between 947 and 958. At that time, Aragon was under the authority of the king of Pamplona, then García Sánchez I, and Fortún appears to have been exercising authority on behalf of the king's heir, the future Sancho II. In a document from 947, Fortún is described as the guardian or tutor of the young Sancho, who was the heir to Aragon through his mother Queen Andregoto Galíndez. No primary source records Fortún Jiménez's family relations. The historian Antonio Ubieto Arteta presents three hypotheses concerning his relationships. First, he proposes that he was the son of King Jimeno Garcés, who reigned in Pamplona between 925 and 931 before García Sánchez I came of age. This would make him a first cousin of his sovereign, García Sánchez. Second, he suggests that he married Belasquita, a younger daughter of Count Galindo Aznárez II of Aragon, and was the grandfather of Andregoto (fl. 1075), mother of the pr ...

Counts Of Aragon
Count (feminine: countess) is a historical title of nobility in certain European countries, varying in relative status, generally of middling rank in the hierarchy of nobility. Pine, L. G. ''Titles: How the King Became His Majesty''. New York: Barnes & Noble, 1992. p. 73. . Especially in earlier medieval periods the term often implied not only a certain status, but also that the ''count'' had specific responsibilities or offices. The etymologically related English term "county" denoted the territories associated with some countships, but not all. The title of ''count'' is typically not used in England or English-speaking countries, and the term ''earl'' is used instead. A female holder of the title is still referred to as a ''countess'', however. Origin of the term The word ''count'' came into English from the French ', itself from Latin '—in its accusative form ''comitem''. It meant "companion" or "attendant", and as a title it indicated that someone was delegated to re ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
