Aragonese Compromise of 1283

The Aragonese Compromise of 1283 was an agreement in the Kingdom of Aragon, where nobility and the ruling monarchy reached a consensus on governance. It established a more collaborative relationship between the king and his subjects, allowing the Cortes (a council representing different regions) to have a say in important matters. This compromise helped balance power, ensuring that the interests of both the king and the nobility were respected, and laid the groundwork for more democratic practices in Aragon. It marked a significant step in the evolution of political governance in medieval Spain.
