Chapters: States and Territories Established in 872, Norway, County of Pallars. Excerpt: The County of Pallars or Pallás was a de facto independent petty state, nominally within the Carolingian Empire and then West Francia during the ninth and tenth centuries, perhaps one of the Catalan counties, originally part of the Marca Hispanica in the ninth century. It was coterminous with the upper Noguera Pallaresa valley from the crest of the Pyrenees to the village of Tremp, comprising the Valle de Àneu, Valle de Cardós, Valle Ferrera, the right bank of the Noguera Ribagorzana, and the valley of the Flamicell. It roughly corresponded with the historic region of Catalonia called Pallars. Its chief city was Sort. The early history of Pallars, which was the easternmost extent of Basque settlement, is linked to that of its western neighbour, Ribagorza. Both territories were conquered from the Moors by William of Gellone, Duke of Toulouse, perhaps as early as 781, perhaps as late as the start of the ninth century. Together they formed a new province attached to Toulouse.A widely-circulated monkish account of 1078 from Alaó contains the earliest foundation myth of any of the counties of the Hispanic March. Written at a time when the independence of Pallars and Ribagorza was threatened by the hegemony recently created by the personal union of the Kingdom of Navarre and Kingdom of Aragon (1076). It records that Count Bernard and Bishop Ato, both of Ribagorza and descended by tradition from Charlemagne, spearheaded the conquest and repopulation of Sobrarbe and Pallars respectively and that the bishop held ecclesiastical rule over all three counties. In reality, being so far from the centres of Carolingian power, it was easy for the rulers of Toulouse to act as Books, , 872-In-International-Relations~~Books-Llc, 999999999, 872 In International Relations, Books Llc, 1156032261, General Books LLC, , , , , General Books LLC<
