 The Comuneros of Castile   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The nobility, meanwhile, saw a chance to gain more power for themselves (some of them would side with the Comuneros until the wind changed) and were pushing against the rights and land of the towns.
Living on the legends of the great kings, (Ferdinand and Isabella having killed nobility who got too big for their boots), the Comuneros assumed that the King was in league with the nobles.
Sadly for the history of democratic nations, the Comuneros had a string of bad luck that ended their existence – ironically because of the own success.

Now the comuneros went so far to openly challenge the legitimacy of Charles V.'s kingship; they insisted that his mother Joan (the mad) were queen instead; she resided in Tordesillas, a city now under the control of the comuneros.
By December 1520, a noble force, which declared herself loyal to Charles V., undertook operations against the Comuneros; Valladolid was taken, Queen Joan freed from the hands of the Comuneros.

At least one doctoral student is studying the biological activity of organ pipe cacti both inside and outside the reserves and has already published data about the cacti in a master's thesis.
Of equal importance is the livelihood that local comuneros, or community members, in El Pitayal derive from the organ pipe forests.
We have to convince a majority of the comuneros that the intact forest is an egalitarian, profitable resource that will last forever," he said.

Le manifestaron al magistrado que a los comuneros les han violado sus derechos, pues los han metido a la cárcel, por lo que querían que se anulara de una vez la asamblea; y reiteraban que no iban a vender sus tierras, aún con las amenazas de muerte dirigidas al portavoz Marco Antonio Suástegui Muñoz.
Luego de escuchar a los comuneros, el magistrado se retiró, mientras los comuneros abandonaban la oficinas, a excepción de las autoridades de los bienes comunales, quienes permanecieron en el tribunal por cerca de una hora, pues afuera los estaban esperando los opositores y querían evadir un encuentro.
Afuera comuneros informaron a reporteros que la CFE les había prometido 50 pesos por acudir a la marcha y que no les habían pagado.

 Flag Urban Legends (Spain)
The Comuneros [commoners who revolted against Charles V in the early 16th century] used a purple flag with a castle.
However, there is no evidence for this theory, and the only colour associated with the Commoners is red which they used on their surcoats in the form of red crosses, as opposed to the King's troops who used white ones.
The romantic history of the 19th century has given the original Comuneros an aura of revolutionary men seeking freedom from monarchic oppression and attributed them purple flags, though there is no evidence for it and even strong evidence against that colour.

The state government announced that comuneros from the Casa del Pueblo, municipality of Venustiano Carranza, have threatened to take over the Rio Blanco predio, which is being guarded by the Security Police, in order to cover an alleged land debt that the government owes them.

When restoring the house in 1979, mural colonial painting samples were found and preserved in the main room together with commercial signs painted in distemper announcing the tailor’s shop opened there until late in the XIX century.
The house was named “of the Comuneros” to honor the memory of 1782 revolutionary gest, that is why in 1981 the District Government in view of bi-centenary, destined the house known as property of Don Juan Flórez de Ocáriz, to open a Home-Museum.
After restoration in 1999 the republican house known as Comuneros II and a lovely English style building known as English House, current District Culture and Tourism Home were integrated.

The fiscal onus for the war rested on Spain and provoked violent reaction, particularly in Castile, which resented Charles’s high-handedness in obtaining funds from the Castilian Cortes.
Toledo, Segovia, and other Castilian cities revolted in the brief war (1520–21) of the comuneros.
Initially aimed at limiting the royal power, the uprising was later marked by violent class warfare.

Charles's conduct and his foreign advisers offended Spanish national feeling and led to a rising in Toledo under Padilla's leadership (1520).
The comuneros revolt was the most important rising in Castile until the 19th cent.
Its defeat permitted royal absolutism to consolidate itself and led to a loss of municipal liberties.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Reductions of Paraguay
Indians took pride in calling themselves "Soldiers of the King." How they risked and sacrificed life and property on many occasions, under the leadership of the Fathers, for the cause of the crown, has been told already.
The loyalty of these Indians to the king is characterized by their conduct during the time of the Antequera disorders, and the so-called Comuneros revolt, that troublesome period (1721-1735) which composed the first attempt, on a large scale, of the colony to secede from Spain.
The usurper Antequera as well as the Comuneros vented their rage first and above all on the Jesuits and the Reduction Indians, who proved themselves the strongest bulwark of the Spanish rule.

 Los Comuneros en el Teatro Circo
El texto de Luis López Álvarez, que había visto la luz unos años antes con la edición del libro del mismo nombre, cobraba una dimensión nueva que encontró en las canciones y en las voces de Nuevo Mester de Juglaría un vehículo idóneo para la transmisión de los hermosos versos del poema.
Veinticinco años más tarde, Nuevo Mester de Juglaría se ha propuesto recuperar Los Comuneros, en una versión ampliada y renovadora, que se estrenó en el Teatro Principal de Burgos en el mes de noviembre de 2000, como pórtico a posteriores presentaciones del espectáculo en teatros de Castilla y León y de toda España.
Hay otras 18 grabaciones, entre las que destaca Los Comuneros, un disco que se convirtió en un auténtico grito por la consecución de las libertades y en el canto más reivindicativo durante el periodo de transición.

Efectivos del Ejército y de la Policía Federal Preventiva (PFP) llegaron a las inmediaciones de esta localidad con el propósito de evitar un posible enfrentamiento entre comuneros zoques de Santa María Chimalapa y ganaderos de esta colonia, quienes se disputan 13 mil hectáreas.
"Ellos (los comuneros zoques) entraron a bordo de 30 camionetas por Suchilapa y durmieron en Chalchijapa", decían algunos; otros que "los comuneros llegaron hasta Nicolás Bravo y desde ahí caminarán para llegar a terminar el brecheo".
A las 21:00 horas del miércoles pasado los colonos que se habían apostado en el puente El Corte, para impedir el paso de los comuneros, se retiraron y luego de reorganizarse decidieron salir en las primeras horas de ayer a los dos parajes, para detener una posible incursión de los indígenas zoques.
