Years: 1211 - 1211
King Peter II of Aragon (and, as Peter I, Count of Barcelona), had responded to Pope Innocent III’s call for a crusade against the heretics in southern France by dispatching Christian crusaders into Aragonese-held Provence, where Albigensian heretics had garnered a large following.
With Montfort having turned the crusade into a political war to end the independence of the southern French nobles, Peter endeavors to placate the northern crusaders by arranging a marriage between his son James, now three years old, and Simon's daughter.
He entrusts the boy to be educated in Montfort's care in 1211.
