RT info:eu-repo/semantics/article T1 Poderes locales, dominio territorial y control central en la Castilla meridional (ss. XIII-XVI): gobernar fronteras A1 Jiménez Alcázar, Juan Francisco A2 Ediciones Universidad de Valladolid K1 Edad Media AB Controlling such territories as were most remote from the centres of power has always been one of the objectives of those who sought to set up a political organization based on a centralized system of power. The example of Castile and the lands bordering the Nasrid sultanate of Granada during the Late Middle Age affords a model for analyzing this phenomenon. The process of monarchical rule over outlying territories near an asymmetric boundary as was the Castilian-Nasrid frontier line additionally involved two intermediate factors: the landed gentry and the local power groups. These helped define the slow but inexorable path to the political praxis of a powerful Crown and gave rise to procedures that would later be used, already in the Modem Era, to incorporate the vast American dominions.
