Peace is restored to the troubled island…

1404 CE

Peace is restored to the troubled island of Fuerteventura only with the return of Béthencourt in 1404.

De la Salle and Béthencourt found the city of Betancuria (as capital of the island) in 1404.

Béthencourt receives the title King of the Canary Islands, but still recognizes Henry as his overlord.

This marks the beginning of the Spanish Empire.
