Ferdinand III of Castile, called the Saint, was king of Castile (1217 – 1252) and of León (1230 – 1252), conquering the cities of Seville, capital of the Almohads. The corpse of King Ferdinand III the Saint was buried in the Cathedral of Seville, three days after his death.
He imposed Castilian as the official language of his kingdoms in place of Latin and tried to unify and centralize the administration of the Castilian and Leonese kingdoms. He divided the newly conquered lands among the military orders, the Church and the nobles. His son Alfonso X El Sabio, in one of his works, "Las Siete Partidas" highlighted the four values that every sword should embody: Sanity, Strength, Moderation and Justice.
