Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a biography of James I of Aragon. Born in 1208 to King Pedro II of Aragon and Mary of Montpellier, James' early years were marked by both privilege and adversity. His father's death in 1213 placed him on the throne at age five, but his minority was a period of chaos and po…litical intrigue, with the young king serving as a pawn in the power struggles between his uncles and the nobility. He escaped his regents and took control of his kingdom in 1218 at age 10. He began his rule facing threats from both internal factions and outside forces. Through a combination of political maneuvering, military prowess, and strategic marriages, James I successfully expanded his territories and strengthened the power of the Aragonese monarchy. His reign witnessed significant social, economic, and cultural developments, including the conquest of Majorca and Valencia, and the establishment of a legal code that would shape Aragonese society for centuries to come.
