	Chapter 12: The Kingdom of León-Castilla under Queen Urraca
		Urraca's rule was threatened by the fact of her being a mere woman, but the immediate transfer of the realm to her four-year-old son, Alfonso Raimúndez, offered only the alternative of a regency and rule by cabal.
		There Urraca negotiated a truce that was to endure until her death nine years later and open the way to consolidation of her authority in most of the western and central portions of the peninsula.
		Urraca, however, was able to leave to her son almost all Galacia and better than half of Castilla in addition to the provinces of Asturias, León, the trans-Duero, and Toledo.
