905, Spain: The Navarrese nobility, dissatisfied with the rule of King Fortún Garcés, took matters into their own hands. They forcefully removed Fortún Garcés from the throne and instead crowned Sancho I of Pamplona as the new ruler of Navarre. This dramatic shift in power marked a turning point in the politics and leadership of the region. Sancho I of Pamplona, also known as Sancho Garcés, assumed the throne and began his reign with a new vision for Navarre. This usurpation of power by the Navarrese nobility had profound implications for the kingdom and set the stage for a new era of rule. As historians reflect on this moment, they recognize its significance in shaping the course of Navarre's history and political landscape. #Spain #Navarre #SanchoI #UsurpationOfPower
