Reason is Casitlian capital moved with each move of the king. In other words, there was no capital. Anyway, Valladolid could be the last capital before final Madrid.

1419 to 1479 (marriage of Isabella and Fernando) capital is Toledo
from 1479 to 1561 , capital in Valladolid
1561 and rest of game , capital in madrid
would this suffice

Indeed. We've already gone over this ad nauseam and a quote from wiki isn't sufficient reason to change.
really !!
What was the outcome and why was toledo chosen when all i can find prior to the "marriage" was Burgos as a capital?
I don't remember why Toledo was "chosen" but I clearly remember Fodoron's explanations about the "no capital" issue.
Event 142014 could be used if Valladolid "settlement" is really important.

Funny that you should accuse me of posting a modern map,
when you are posting exactly the same one a couple of posts later.
This third one to clarify things about Castile-Leon, just because your supposedly Castilla y Leon does not include Leon.
Now what you are claiming, based on modern numbers, is that the small provinces in blue and green were much more populated than the larger Santander, Burgos, Palencia and northern Valladolid areas (in the first map). I'll believe that when I see demographical figures for 1419.
Many cities and communities and corporations had fiscal peculiarities in the Middle-Ages and early Modern Era, this quote of yours does not convince me that the Basques had some very special privileges.
Yes really. Here's what I could glean on a few swipes through the archives:

So we do have a consensus.
says the guy who does NOT claim to be the memory of this forum.
Thanks Garbon
more confused than ever
Fodoron, said ( to summarise ) that, in toledo is best to prevent the CAS player or AI in loosing a province with gold.
He opted for Burgos but said Valladolid was what most historians said
I stated my choices in order with the reasons , its your call.

I had to rebalance the advantage you got even though yours was in error
do not know what u meanThis third one to clarify things about Castile-Leon, just because your supposedly Castilla y Leon does not include Leon.
yes, i gave the modern population numbers and by logics I also said that 400 years of ethnic cleanings from the time of the spanish inquition (1540) to general Franco in the 20th century of the basques, still gives them an advantage.
page 16
You need to exclude the Cantabrians of Santander, I did, ..........their language was their own more closer to castilian than basque, but there culture was more basque than castilian , like food, dress ( boina as an example ), tribal/clan lifestyle

I think the position is that there really wasn't a capital in the sense of a Paris or a London but because one is needed by the game, one can defend the choice of any one of those three. That being the case, it looks like game play considerations tipped the balance. I've no idea whether those considerations are still important, but I'd hate to see it thought that this issue was never discussed.
Interesting. And this raises the issue that the Spanish Crown doesn't seem to have exerted the same level of control over the Basque lands as it did over the Kingdom of Castile so should we deny Spain Basque culture like we took Catalan away until the Bourbons come in and clean house? My answer is maybe, depending on what the ingame effects are. We might have to offset it by increasing taxes somewhere in Castile in compensation, but it would really show that Castile was the economic foundation of the Crown.
And the book provides some evidence that there should be some low level of unrest in all the Basque lands to reflect the brotherhood wars, or whatever they're called until about 1460 or the reign of Isabella. But I'd prefer a lot more detail on the relations between Crown and Basques before I started writing events.
Thats my point in our AGCEEP, we can make historical change as long as the balance does not prevent historical accuracy in the game, a bit of give and take

this is the S-Z, there is one A-C etc etc etc
yep
and in the previous page it says linguistically they ( argonese) have a navarro (basque) dialect.
As i stated, to keep the status quo , i elected basque for aragon province, but i will not fight it being catalan. although the increased strength of ARG "might" be an issue............BUT castilian for aragon province in entirely wrong.
