Cortes Taxation Grievances Aragon Hermandad Kingdom Pass Laws

Front Cortes ?
Back ✓ One in each kingdom - used to pass laws and grant taxation - nobles could use it to raise grievances

Castilian Cortes = Fairly compliant and rarely met - when it did it was usually to agree taxation

*✓ The Cortes of Aragon = insisted on discussing grievances before taxation was agreed to

= typical of the pattern by which Aragon was more independent and defiant than Castile

EG - 1488 - grievances raised by the Aragonese Cortes about the Hermandad = led to the suspension of the Hermandad in Aragon
