Urgell
Urgell (Spanish: Urgel) is one of the historical
Catalan counties, bordering on the counties of
Pallars and
Cerdanya. Its maximal extension territory was between the
Pyrenees and the
taifa of
Lleida, that is, the current
comarques of
Alt Urgell,
Noguera,
Solsonès,
Pla d'Urgell,
Urgell itself, and the still independent country of
Andorra. The historical capital was first
la Seu d'Urgell and later
Balaguer. The county of Urgell was extinguished and absorbed by the
County of Barcelona in 1413, after the revolt of the last count, James II of Urgell, against the king
Ferdinand I of Aragon.
