Compromise of Caspe - Aftermath

Aftermath

James II, Count of Urgell, refused to accept the decision, and failed to present himself at the coronation. Ferdinand I entered into negotiations with James to prevent open warfare, but the negotiations failed, so Ferdinand I occupied castles and strong points in Urgell, and Ferdinand officially dissolved the County of Urgell in 1413 and the area came under the Count of Barcelona. There were uprisings in support of James in Valencia and Catalonia and James himself lead sorties out from his command headquarters in Balaguer. James's supporters were defeated in battle on 25 June 1413 outside of Lleida. Antonio de Luna enlisted the support of Gascon and English troops who invaded at Jaca but they were defeated on 10 July 1413, before being able to join James's army. In August, Ferdinand began the siege of Balaguer. Meanwhile, Antonio de Luna had organized defenses in Huesca; however, the Castle of Montearagón was taken on 11 August, and he and his troops fled to Loarre Castle. In October 1413, James surrendered at Balaguer. The following January, Loarre Castle fell and the rebellion was over.
