Remember to upload me every single task that I order because today is going to finish the work related to the political map of Spain. 4 00:01:01,469 --> 00:01:22,989 And on the other hand, I have opened a forum in the website where you can write your doubts, questions, or whatever you want to, but please relate it with the topic, relate it with the Unit 7. If not, you can write me or my Aula Virtual or email me with every single question. 5 00:01:22,989 --> 00:01:32,109 and and that's all so let's go to start with unit number seven but as we can 6 00:01:32,109 --> 00:01:38,750 already study chapter number one and two we are going to see that both of the 7 00:01:38,750 --> 00:01:46,230 chapters quite quickly and let's go to move to chapter number three so just to 8 00:01:46,230 --> 00:01:51,670 mention that we started the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa if you remember is a 9 00:01:51,670 --> 00:01:58,150 turning point in the history of the conquering of the muslin territories and for now 10 00:02:00,310 --> 00:02:07,510 the different kingdoms the crown of castile and the crown of aragon are going to advance a lot 11 00:02:07,510 --> 00:02:12,150 in the way southward so they are going to conquer the most of the iberian peninsula 12 00:02:12,150 --> 00:02:15,110 but for the nazareth kingdom of granada 13 00:02:15,110 --> 00:02:25,969 sorry I was coughing then we mentioned two important kings in the Castilian expansion 14 00:02:25,969 --> 00:02:40,490 13 and the third the one that unified Castile and Leon in 1213 not in 1230 sorry 1230 and his 15 00:02:40,490 --> 00:02:48,650 son alfonso the term on the other hand we mention an important king in the crown of aragon there 16 00:02:48,650 --> 00:02:56,569 there is a james the first the conqueror that you remember he was the responsible of the conquering 17 00:02:57,129 --> 00:03:04,490 of the balearic island and valencia finally we mentioned the different treaties that both 18 00:03:04,490 --> 00:03:11,930 both of the crowns made during this period of time to to make a partition 19 00:03:13,610 --> 00:03:19,610 about what part of the iberian peninsula belongs to each kingdom if you remember murcia belongs 20 00:03:19,610 --> 00:03:27,930 to castilian on the south of valencia alicante for example belongs to aragon do you remember the name 21 00:03:27,930 --> 00:03:41,039 of one of the treaties that we mentioned. The one that we mentioned in the book is the Treaty of 22 00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:47,439 Alnithra, but they are more like the Tudigen for example, but you don't you just need to remember 23 00:03:47,439 --> 00:03:54,400 the first one. On the other hand, we mentioned the resettlement of new territories and this is 24 00:03:54,400 --> 00:04:00,960 something that we already have studied in the unit number four. So just with this map we are going to 25 00:04:00,960 --> 00:04:08,879 summarize it a little bit at the beginning from the 8th century up until the 10th century more or less 26 00:04:09,680 --> 00:04:19,759 the resettlement was from Castile from Asturias sorry and Leon to the north of the Duero river 27 00:04:19,759 --> 00:04:28,160 this kind of settlement was called by presura then we mentioned another one from the Duero 28 00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:36,759 southward up until more or less the Tahoe River, that it was called the repoblación concejil in 29 00:04:36,759 --> 00:04:45,439 concejos, like in municipalities. But the two more important ones that we need to keep in mind right 30 00:04:45,439 --> 00:04:54,800 now are the resettlement of the of the military orders and the resettlement of 31 00:04:54,800 --> 00:05:03,319 the of the land grants repartimientos in Spanish both of them were big plot of 32 00:05:03,319 --> 00:05:10,459 land mainly to the military orders such as Calatrava Alcántara Santiago or 33 00:05:10,459 --> 00:05:17,959 Montesa we mentioned and the land grants were made by the privileged group the 34 00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:22,699 novelty and the clergy also the military orders and one of the main 35 00:05:22,699 --> 00:05:33,980 characteristic in that these plots were quite big that nowadays are still 36 00:05:33,980 --> 00:05:40,279 present in our Peninsula in our country because in the south is completely 37 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:46,139 full of people of land that we call lucky food yeah and in the north we have 38 00:05:46,139 --> 00:05:53,759 a small plot of land that they are called mini food you in Spanish so with 39 00:05:53,759 --> 00:05:58,220 this we are going to finish the chapter number two and we are going to start 40 00:05:58,220 --> 00:06:02,600 with the chapter number three that is the one that we didn't have time to do 41 00:06:02,600 --> 00:06:07,699 in classroom I guess because I cannot remember perfectly in which group we 42 00:06:07,699 --> 00:06:23,920 So all the chapters. Related to the different crowns that are in the Iberian Peninsula, we are going to study three of them. The crown of Castile, the crown of Navarre and the crown of Aragon. 43 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:39,920 In both of them, firstly, we are going to study how was the government of the kingdom. Then we will study the economy, the differences in the economy. And thirdly, we are going to study the society. 44 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:55,139 We are going to, related to the Crown of Castile, we are going to also spend one more chapter talking about the Transfumance, La Transfumancia, and La Mesta. 45 00:06:55,139 --> 00:07:02,339 but this is going to be in chapter number four so we are going to focus right now in chapter number 46 00:07:02,339 --> 00:07:10,920 three because i don't have a lot of time because this video cannot last more than 50 15 minutes 47 00:07:10,920 --> 00:07:19,120 related to uh to the government of a kingdom the political view first of all we need to keep in 48 00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:29,120 that in the year 1230 Ferdinand III, Fernando III, the father of Alfonso X, 49 00:07:29,120 --> 00:07:37,120 he was the responsible of the final union of the kingdom of León and Castile. 50 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:46,120 So for now both of them are going to be called the Crown of Castile and they are not going to be separated anymore. 51 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:51,420 related with this crown and firstly talking about government we have to 52 00:07:51,420 --> 00:07:58,180 mention that there are there were three institutions the first one is the 53 00:07:58,180 --> 00:08:05,560 monarchy that accumulate the most of the power for example the power the ability 54 00:08:05,560 --> 00:08:12,480 to raise armies or to collect taxes for example normally they were helped by the 55 00:08:12,480 --> 00:08:19,800 the clergy and the novelty but this is the first of the three institutions then 56 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:28,620 we have Las Cortes the coaches that help the monarch to achieve their goals they 57 00:08:28,620 --> 00:08:34,320 firstly were joined by city representative but in the end the King 58 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:40,860 Council is going to be made up novelty clergy and the bourgeois the first 59 00:08:40,860 --> 00:08:46,600 quarters that appear in the Iberian Peninsula were the ones located in Leon 60 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:58,019 the Cortes of Leon in 1188 it consider the first quarters in the world but in a 61 00:08:58,019 --> 00:09:03,120 different way with the one that appear in the United in England in that period 62 00:09:03,120 --> 00:09:10,299 of time but we need to know we don't need to know that information from the 63 00:09:10,299 --> 00:09:18,460 1230 as we mentioned that 13 and the third join or unify both of the kingdoms 64 00:09:18,460 --> 00:09:25,460 Leon and Castile from now they are going to hold just one Cortes because they 65 00:09:25,460 --> 00:09:31,799 only have one crowd finally we have to mention the municipalities the 66 00:09:31,799 --> 00:09:38,019 municipalities were administered by councils and controlled mostly by the 67 00:09:38,019 --> 00:09:45,179 the novelty that they were called regidores. Regidores is the Spanish name for the person 68 00:09:45,179 --> 00:09:54,580 that controlled the municipality. On the other hand, the monarchy appointed corregidores 69 00:09:54,580 --> 00:10:01,960 in the municipalities to exercise control. So we have two important members controlling 70 00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:07,840 and administering the municipalities, the regidores and the corregidores. 71 00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:14,720 Any other institutions that we have to keep in mind in the government were the king's 72 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:23,080 council that they were dedicated to administration and they were made up of nobles and clergy, 73 00:10:23,080 --> 00:10:33,460 the treasury, hacienda, to collect taxes. Then we have the chancery, la cancillería, 74 00:10:33,460 --> 00:10:41,159 for the organization of the kingdom. And finally we have the audience, la audiencia, for administrate 75 00:10:41,159 --> 00:10:50,759 justice. These are all the institutions that you have to keep in mind. Then, as I mentioned, 76 00:10:50,759 --> 00:10:59,399 are going to focus in the economy related to the economy the big majority of the population 77 00:10:59,399 --> 00:11:07,399 were working in the primary sector so agriculture livestock farming self-culture or fishing 78 00:11:07,399 --> 00:11:14,039 the most of the population were work in agriculture but the most important activity 79 00:11:14,039 --> 00:11:23,080 was the merino sip merino is a kind of sip i don't know if you have heard any time the spanish 80 00:11:23,080 --> 00:11:32,840 and then nomad place churrasco marinas two type of sips it's just a curiosity and maybe if you 81 00:11:32,840 --> 00:11:39,720 will hurt this sentence in future you can relation and the sentence with this topic 82 00:11:39,720 --> 00:11:49,720 Why Merino sheep were so important? Because of the high quality of the wool. They had an exceptional bull. 83 00:11:49,720 --> 00:12:03,720 On the other hand, we mentioned that most of the people worked in this kind of activity, but the flocks belonged to the nobility, military authorities and monasteries. 84 00:12:03,720 --> 00:12:08,139 So the farmers didn't have their own flocks. 85 00:12:08,299 --> 00:12:09,919 They had to work for the nobility. 86 00:12:10,500 --> 00:12:23,759 Because of this, the monarchy created an association to protect the interests of the nobility, the military orgies and the monasteries. 87 00:12:24,379 --> 00:12:32,360 This association was created in the year 1273 and it was called the Mesta. 88 00:12:32,360 --> 00:12:39,360 we will talk a little bit more about this in chapter in next chapter so we are not going to 89 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:47,419 lose a lot of time but keep in mind MESTA the association of livestock farmers to protect their 90 00:12:47,419 --> 00:12:53,600 interests then relating with the society we have to mention that it was an stratified society 91 00:12:53,600 --> 00:13:00,899 divided in states if you remember the privilege and the non-privilege the privilege were the 92 00:13:00,899 --> 00:13:07,200 nobility and the clergy and the non-privileged are the rest it's mix of 93 00:13:07,200 --> 00:13:13,399 a lot of different people people from the bourgeois people from peasants 94 00:13:13,399 --> 00:13:20,279 farmers artisans traders but also Jews and muslims that were a minority group 95 00:13:20,279 --> 00:13:24,899 what is the main characteristic that they have to pay more taxes and they 96 00:13:24,899 --> 00:13:32,120 have less rights. Finally, and just to finish this topic, we are going to mention, coming back 97 00:13:32,120 --> 00:13:39,059 with the courtes, the importance of the courtes, just to mention the two main important activities 98 00:13:39,059 --> 00:13:44,419 of the courtes that you already know, but because we mentioned in chapter, in unit number four, 99 00:13:44,419 --> 00:13:55,500 they were to approve laws proposed by the king approve laws and to raise taxes i'm checking that 100 00:13:55,500 --> 00:14:01,519 i have written from these two words i'm going to correct it right now after the presentation but 101 00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:11,100 approve laws and raise taxes keep in mind but i know that you already know okay guys 102 00:14:11,100 --> 00:14:12,879 we are 103 00:14:12,879 --> 00:14:15,360 I am talking more than 40 minutes 104 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:16,759 so I have to stop right now 105 00:14:16,759 --> 00:14:19,600 so I will upload 106 00:14:19,600 --> 00:14:21,340 this chapter as soon as I can 107 00:14:21,340 --> 00:14:23,899 and please remember to upload 108 00:14:23,899 --> 00:14:25,779 your works 109 00:14:25,779 --> 00:14:27,720 in Aula Virtual, please 110 00:14:27,720 --> 00:14:32,100 guys, I hope to see you soon 111 00:14:32,100 --> 00:14:33,000 bye
