Urgell, County of

Substate | Defunct

785 CE to 1413 CE

The County of Urgell, one of the historical Catalan counties, bordering on the counties of Pallars and Cerdanya, is carved by the Franks out of a former section of the Mark of Toulouse when the Alt Urgell area becomes part of the Carolingian Empire between 785 and 790.

The historical capital is first la Seu d'Urgell and later Balaguer.

The county of Urgell is extinguished and absorbed by the County of Barcelona in 1413, after the revolt of the last count, James II of Urgell, against the king Ferdinand I of Aragon.
