Alfonso I, also called the Battler or the Warrior, was King of Aragon and Navarre from 1104 until he died in 1134. He was the son of King Sancho Ramírez and became king after his brother Peter I. Through his marriage to Urraca, Queen of Castile, Alfonso was given the title "Emperor of Spain." He became famous after the defeat of Zaragoza in 1118 and other towns like Tudela and Calatayud. Alfonso died in 1134 after losing a battle against the Muslims at Fraga.
