Great article, but I think its odd to call James I of Aragon's conquest of Mallorca a "Catalan conquest".

Poor Aragon, always getting its history rewritten by Catalan separatists and those that sympathize with them.

Those catalans want to steal the victory of the world renowned Fleet of Aragón

By far the best fishermen of Spain

Isn't the "Crusade of the Infants of Aragon" commonly known as the "Catalan Crusade" though? The Aragonese Crusade would refer to the events related to the War of the Sicilian Vespers.

I'm no history experts though, so would be happy to be corrected, this is just my understanding of things.
