Map of the counties (7c)
Between the 9th and 10th centuries the strip of territory between the Pyrenees and the Llobregat river is conquered by the Frankish kings to stem the advance of the caliphate. The lands are divided into counties, at the head of which the king appoints a count to be in charge of defence and government.
Initially, the counts govern in the name of the king, but from the 10th century they cease to renew the pact of vassalage and begin to act with full sovereignty. Step by step the county of Barcelona becomes the new centre of power and receives the vassalage of other counts. At the same time, the counties begin their expansion by conquering territories of the caliphate of Cordoba, which they defend by means of a great network of castles.
