The Kingdom of León was established at the beginning of the 10C, when Ordoño II set up his court in the city and proclaimed himself King of León. The city's history was then nourished by conquests and skirmishes against the Islamic world and also Portugal. It was united with Castile several times, but it was not until the 13C that this union became definitive.
