Relaciones entre Portugal Y Galicia : siglos XIV-XV

The close link between Galicia and the kingdom of Portugal is known prior to its independence and throughout the Middle age. There are many elements in which major connections existed: geographical closeness, a common past until the XIIth century, the same language, belonging to the same ecclesiastic jurisdiction, commercial relations, co-existence between its inhabitants and moments of clash and rivalry. A good sign of this close link are the lengthy documents that exist in Portuguese and Spanish files regarding these relations during this time.
