Between 1323 and 1421, the “fet de Sardenya" and the conquest of Corsica were one of the main issues the king of Aragon had to face. In the midst of a long war against the Commune of Genoa, the domination of the islands was one of the key issues in Aragonese diplomacy. The difficult conquest of the Regnum Sardiniae et Corsicae involved both the kings of Aragon and their Crown princes. This study sheds light upon the range of relations, from submission to revolt, between the kings and their primogènits within the Crown of Aragon.
