A [[Christian]] enclave fighting the [[Islamic]] capture of Spain, King [[Ferdinand II]]'s marriage to [[Isabella of Castile]] in 1469 laid the foundation for a united Christian Spain and removing the last toehold of Islam.  Aragon's sovereignty was ended by [[Philip V]] during the [[War of Spanish Succession]] (1701 - 1714).<ref>The New American Desk Encyclopedia, Penguin Group, 1989</ref>
