Spanish Castilla

Traditional region, peninsular Spain.

Comprising several modern provinces, its northern part is called Old Castile and its southern part New Castile. Castilian territory was united under Leon by Fernan Gonzalez in the 10th century. Though it separated from Leon in the 12th century, it was reunited with it by Ferdinand III in 1230. The Spanish part of the kingdom of Navarra was annexed by Castile in 1512, thus completing the formation of modern Spain. Castile remains Spain's centre of political and administrative power.
