Ferdinand II, King (Kingdom of Leon) : All Data
Ferdinand II was the King of the Kingdom of Leon from 1157 to 1188. During his reign, he faced several significant conflicts, including the War of the Three Sanchos (1157-1158), which erupted after the death of his father, King Alfonso VII. Ferdinand II successfully defended his claim to the throne against his half-brothers, Sancho III and Garcia II. Another notable war was the Leonese-Portuguese War (1165-1169), where Ferdinand II clashed with his son-in-law, King Afonso I of Portugal, over territorial disputes.
