History maps

This section holds a short summary of the history of the area of present-day Andorra, illustrated with maps, including historical maps of former countries and empires that included present-day Andorra.

The Principality of Andorra, disputed by Foix and Seo de Urgel, a survivor of one of the buffer states created by Charlemagne between his Frankish Empire and the islamic Moors, becomes as a compromise an independent feudal state in 1278, ruled by two co-princes, the count of Foix (later the head of state of France) and the bishop of Urgel. In 1419 Andorra gets a parliament, without real power. Only as late as in 1982 Andorra becomes more or less a constitional state.
