...the other based in Barcelona, under the control of Spain.
For the past decade, the Catalans and French have fought as allies, until in 1652 a Spanish offensive captures Barcelona, bringing the Catalan capital under Spanish control again.
Irregular resistance is to continue for several years afterwards, but the successful siege of Barcelona marks the end of major fighting.
The French authorities in 1652 renounce Catalonia but hold control of Roussillon, thereby leading to the signing in 1659 of the Treaty of the Pyrenees.
