Alfonso VIII's invasion of Gascony
Alfonso VIII of Castile invaded the Duchy of Gascony in 1205, claiming it as the dowry of his wife, Eleanor of England. Gascony was held at the time by Eleanor's brother, John, King of England. Alfonso controlled most of Gascony in 1205–1206, but he failed to take Bordeaux by siege and the enterprise was abandoned in 1207–1208.
