Sancho II, King (portugal) : All Data
Sancho II was the King of Portugal from 1223 to 1248. During his reign, he faced several significant conflicts, including the War of the Alentejo (1234-1235) and the War of the Three Kingdoms (1245-1248). The War of the Alentejo erupted when Sancho II's brother, Afonso, rebelled against his rule, resulting in a brief but intense conflict. The War of the Three Kingdoms, on the other hand, was a more prolonged and complex conflict that involved Sancho II's attempts to expand his influence over the neighboring kingdoms of León, Castile, and Aragon. Despite these challenges, Sancho II's reign was marked by his efforts to centralize power and strengthen the monarchy in Portugal.
