 Origins of the Aragonese-Catalan Flag (Spain)
Aragon was only one of the kingdoms of the Catalan crown, the one with the best-known name, but politically and economically insignifiant.
The flag of Aragon (or signal of the house of Aragon) was the insignia of the house or lineage of the kings of Aragon which appeared on its coat-of-arms.
When the kingdom of Aragon became the Crown of Aragon this flag was common to all its components and established as one with 4 (four) pallets, and thus it was Catalonia who adopted the signal of Aragon when the count of Barcelona married the heiress of Aragon, committing himself to take charge of her kingdom.

 Chapter 2: The Templars in the Corona de Aragón   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Aragon fell to Alfonso's brother Ramiro, who was a monk and bishop-elect of Roda; the regnum Cesaraugustanum came under the control of Alfonso VII of Castile; and García Ramírez was established as ruler of Navarre.
It was agreed that Ramiro's daughter Petronilla should be betrothed to Raymond Berenguer IV, count of Barcelona; the latter was to receive Aragon from Ramiro and was then to obtain renunciations of claims from the Holy Sepulchre, the Hospital, and the Temple.
Nevertheless Peter II did give the Temple compensation for its rights of lordship and share in the revenues of Ascó: in 1204 he assigned to the Order the castle and township of Serós, on the condition that when Ascó had been recovered from the queen-mother, it should be exchanged for Serós.

 Past & Present
The marriage, in 1137, of Sovereign Count Ramon Berenguer IV to Petronella, daughter of King Ramiro II of Aragón, united Catalonia through marriage with the House of Aragón.
