| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Castile and Aragon |
 | | After the union the political individuality of Aragon was lost in that of Castile, and in the time of Philip II, on account of the Antonio Pérez incident, the ancient kingdom lost part of its fueros, or political liberties. | | | Columbus made his voyages of discovery as the agent of the "Catholic Kings" (los Reyes Católicos) of this united kingdom, which in the course of history became the Kingdom of Spain &; or, more precisely, of the Spains. | | | It is certain that a portion of the Goths driven northward by the Mussulman invasion sought refuge among the mountaineers, who were never completely subjugated by any conqueror (indoctus juga ferre — Horace), and there formed certain independent countships, principally those of Sobrarbe, Aragon, and Ribagorza. |
