  1. List of Valencian monarchs

    For the majority of the Middle Ages, Valencia was a constituent part of larger polities. From the time of the Muslim conquest of the Iberian Peninsula, Valencia was controlled by the Umayyad Caliphate Umayyad Caliphate in Baghdad and the Caliphate of C rdoba Emirate Caliphate of Cordoba . Following the latter s collapse, Valencia became the seat of a Taifa of Valencia Taifa state ruled by a succession of local dynasties from 1010 until it was conquered by Rodrigo D az de Vivar, El Cid , in 1095. He ruled until his death, when his widow swore fealty to Kingdom of Castile Castile , but was forced out in 1102 and Valencia fell back under the control of a Muslim Caliphate. Again in the 1140s, Caliphate collapse led to the return of local rule, but following four changes of leadership in two years it fell under the control of neighboring Mercia, and later the Almohad Caliphate . A third time, in 1229, Valencia saw almost a decade of local rule before being conquered by Aragon in 1237. Valencia was reorganized into an administrative Kingdom of Valencia within the Crown of Aragon, ruled by Governors appointed by the Aragonese monarch. This arrangement continued until the formal creation of the Crown of Spain and abolition of the previous administrative kingdoms by the Nueva Planta Decrees in 1714.
