Kingdom of Navarre

The Kingdom of Navarre was established in the 9th century after the Basque chieftain Iñigo Arista was elected King of Pamplona. In the 11th century under King Sancho III, Navarre reached its greatest extent, controlling lands south of the Pyrenees. However, after Sancho's death the kingdom was divided among his sons and it lost power. By the 13th century Navarre had lost western lands to Castile and was landlocked. The native royal line died out in 1234, and Navarrese kings thereafter intermarried with French dynasties, leading to civil wars between factions allied with Navarre and Castile/Aragon. By the early 16th century, Navarre

Kingdom of Navarre[edit]

Main article: Kingdom of Navarre


Neither the Visigoths nor the Franks ever completely subjugated the area. The Vascones (to
become the Basques) assimilated neighbouring tribes as of the 7th century AD. In the year 778, the
Basques defeated a Frankish army at the Battle of Roncevaux Pass.
Following the Battle of Roncevaux Pass (824), the Basque chieftain Iñigo Arista was elected King of
Pamplona supported by the muwallad Banu Qasi of Tudela, establishing a Basque kingdom that was
later called Navarre.[4] That kingdom reached its zenith during the reign of Sancho III, comprising
most of the Christian realms to the south of the Pyrenees, and even a short overlordship
of Gascony (in the early 11th century).[5]
When Sancho III died in 1035, the kingdom was divided between his sons.[6] It never fully recovered
its political power, while its commercial importance increased as traders and pilgrims (the Francs)
poured into the kingdom via the Way of Saint James.[7] In 1200, Navarre lost the key western Basque
districts to Alphonse VIII of Castile, leaving the kingdom landlocked.[8] Navarre then contributed with
a small but symbolic force of 200 knights to the decisive Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212
against the Almohads. ditional filming took place in the Metro and Downtown Atlanta areas and New
York. The official title was revealed in December 2018. With an estimated budget of $356 million, it
is the third-most expensive film ever made.
Avengers: Endgame was highly anticipated, and Disney backed the film with extensive marketing
campaigns. It premiered in Los Angeles on April 22, 2019, and was theatrically released in the
United States on April 26, 2019, in IMAX and 3D. The film received praise for its direction, acting,
musical score, visual effects and emotional weight, with critics lauding its culmination of the 22-film
story. It also broke numerous box office recordsand has grossed over $2.6 billion worldwide,
surpassing Infinity War's entire theatrical run in just 11 days and becoming the highest-grossing film
of 2019 and the highest-grossing superhero film ever, as well as the second-highest-grossing film of
all time.

The native line of kings came to an end in 1234; their heirs intermarried with French
dynasties.[9] However, the Navarrese kept most of their strong laws and institutions. The death
of Queen Blanche I (1441) inaugurated a civil war period between the Beaumont and Agramont
confederacies with the intervention of the Castilian-Aragonese House of Trastámara in Navarre's
internal affairs.[10] In 1512, Navarre was invaded by Ferdinand the Catholic's troops,[11] with Queen
Catherine and King John III withdrawing to the north of the Pyrenees, and establishing a Kingdom of
Navarre-Béarn, led by Queen Joan III as of 1555.
To the south of the Pyrenees, Navarre was annexed to thadley Cooper, and Josh Brolin. In the film,
the surviving members of the Avengers and their allies work together to reverse the damage caused
by Thanos in Infinity War.
The film was announced in October 2014 as Avengers: Infinity War – Part 2. The Russo brothers
came on board to direct in April 2015, and by May, Markus and McFeely signed on to script the film.
In July 2016, Marvel removed the title, referring to it simply as Untitled Avengers film. Filming
began in August 2017 at Pinewood Atlanta Studios in Fayette County, Georgia, shooting back-to-
back with Infinity War, and ended in January 2018. Ad
