AKA: Wulfgrin I, Count d'Angoulême The province of Angoumois comprised the areas now occupied by the Departments of Charente, with some rectifications. Regions of Charente excluded from the Province were, in the North, those of Confolentais, Champagne Mouton, and Villelagnon; in the Southwest, that part of the arrondissement of Cognac, South of the Né. But included in the Province were Deux Sèvres, a small pays near Sauzé- Vaussais and in Haute Vienne, an irregular intrusion comprising Oradour, Saint Mathieu, and Saint Victurnien. The Capital of Angoumois was Angoulême [Charente]. At first part of Saintonge, Angoumois became an independent City late in the Roman era.

The Case of the Catalan Nation a Historical Summary
THE CASE OF THE CATALAN NATION A HISTORICAL SUMMARY THE MANAGEMENT OF THE NATION Catalonia is one of the oldest countries in Europe. It was formed during the post-Roman era, when the arrival of the Germanic people ushered in the ending of the Western-Roman Empire. The Catalan nation is composed of a mixture of Iberians, Romanized and Goths. The Visigoths installed the capital of their domains in Barcelona in 415 A.D. with an alliance with Rome that was annulled half a century later with the fall of the imperial capital (476). This strengthened the dominion covered an area of the Iberian peninsula as well as the northern part of the Pyrenees to the Septimania (Aquitaine and Narbonense), which is the Southern part of present day France. In 534 the Eastern-Roman Empire (Byzantium) incorporated the Mallorcan islands into their dominions, thereby expelling the Vandals. The subsequent invasion of Europe by the Arabs began in 711. This invasion was stopped at Poitiers, then city of the Frankish Kingdom (732), by Charles, father of Charlemagne. As of that moment the withdrawal of the Saracen Islamic invaders and the liberation of the Septimania began. Narbonne was released in 759, Girona in 785 by Charlemagne and Barcelona in 801 by Lluís, the son of Charlemagne. The Catalan counties of Pallars, Ribagorça, Urgell, Rosselló, Cerdanya, Besalú, Girona, Empúries and Barcelona were formed. The latter was to be under the main command of the Count Guifré, who died in combat against the Saracens in 897. This establish the Barcelona dynasty. The Count was a vassal to the King of the Franks. -

Anglo-Iberian Relations 1150-1280: a Diplomatic History
Anglo-Iberian Relations 1150-1280: A Diplomatic History Olga Cecilia Méndez González Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History March 2013 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract This thesis examines the political relations between England and the Iberian Peninsula, from the accession of Henry II of England to the death of Alfonso X of León-Castile, an episode in diplomatic history that remains largely unexplored. This period, spanning over a century and a half, was punctuated by a series of key political events. The study of these sheds light upon the diplomatic complexities of the period. Chapter One explores the historiography and the particularities of Spanish documentary sources. Chapter Two analyses the use of the word Hispania in thirteenth-century chronicles and charters, in an attempt to discover how the term was used and to whom it referred. Chapters Three examines the close relations between the crown of Aragón and the vicomté of Béarn in the twelfth century, while the following chapter looks at the unification of Catalonia and Aragón and the implications of the marriage between Eleanor of England and Alfonso VIII of Castile. Chapter Five explores the impact of Richard I and John’s alliances with Navarre. -
IMPERFECT FEDERALISM and the STRUGGLE for INDEPENDENCE a COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS of SCOTLAND and CATALONIA by Barnabás Szabó Subm
IMPERFECT FEDERALISM AND THE STRUGGLE FOR INDEPENDENCE A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF SCOTLAND AND CATALONIA by Barnabás Szabó Submitted to Central European University Nationalism Studies Program In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Advisor: Professor Mária M. Kovács CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2016 CEU eTD Collection DEUS MEUS, ADIUTOR MEUS CEU eTD Collection CEU eTD Collection ABSTRACT In this thesis, I look into the federal experiences of the United Kingdom and the Kingdom of Spain. I argue that the federal design of these states, being only partially federal in functional terms but not “truly” federal from a constitutional-legal aspect, accounts for the permanent dissatisfaction of stateless nations, specifically Scotland and Catalonia, with their position inside the British and Spanish constitutional structures, which contributes to the strengthening and the recurrence of the struggle for independent statehood in these territories. As a result of my research, I find that while a proper federal redesigning of the UK’s and Spain’s constitution could be a tool to curb the incentives for secession in Scotland and Catalonia, the political factors and the credibility of the federal option necessary for such a reshaping of the constitutional environment are missing. However, the current constitutional designs based on devolution and autonomous governance have not necessarily reached their final limits, even though there are certain differences to observe in this respect between the Scottish and the Catalan scenarios. CEU eTD Collection CEU eTD Collection ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my supervisor, Professor Mária M. Kovács for her support through the whole of the writing process. -
