Fruela II's younger brother, Ramiro, made a bold move in 925 when he married his brother's widow, Urraca bint Abd Allah, and declared himself the rightful ruler of Spain. This caused a major upheaval in the region as Ramiro essentially claimed the royal title for himself. The marriage not only solidified his position but also ensured a continuation of the dynasty. This moment marked a significant shift in power dynamics and further fueled political tensions in Spain. #Spain #FruelaII #Ramiro #UrracabintAbdAllah #RoyalTitle #PowerShift
