This process, which extended in time, will be analyzed through a study of the reports contained in the Crónica del Rey Don Alfonso the Tenth, written during the reign of Alfonso XI (1312-50), and of the laws of Siete Partidas, legal code made in the thirteenth century under the direction of Alfonso X. Through the study and confrontation of sources, on the one hand, we will analyse a theory of the royal power and the succession to the throne and, on the other, a practice that sought to maintain the unity of the kingdom and to affirm the legitimacy of the power of the monarchs.porAcesso AbertoAfonso XSucessão realIdade médiaAlfonso XRoyal successionMiddle agesArtigo10.5216/rfd.v40i2.43188
