The reign of James II of Aragon coincided with an exciting time of tremendous upheaval on the Iberian Peninsula and elsewhere in the medieval world. As king of Aragon, Valencia, Murcia, and Cerdeña, and as count of Barcelona, James oversaw a number of military victories—and a few defeats—in Sicily, northern Africa, the Byzantine Empire, and other places. All the while, he struggled against a French monarchy and papacy unwilling to relinquish any control over the Mediterranean region or the Italian peninsula. Ultimately, though, James II’s reign would be best known as the golden age of the Crown of Aragon. El reinado de Jaime II de Aragón coincidió con un periodo emocionante de grandes cambios en la península ibérica y alrededor del mundo medieval. Como rey de Aragón, Valencia, Murcia y Cerdeña, y conde de Barcelona, Jaime superviso un buen número de victorias militares—y algunas derrotas—en Sicilia, el norte de África, el Imperio de Oriente y otros lugares. A la misma vez, luchaba contra una monarquía y un papado francés poco dispuestos a ceder poder sobre el Mediterráneo o la península italiana. Últimamente, sin embargo, el reinado de Jaime II se llegaría a considerar el momento de la plenitud de la expansión de la Corona de Aragón.
