Founded as a Roman city, Barcelona became the capital of the County of Barcelona. After merging with the Kingdom of Aragon, Barcelona continued to be an important city to the Crown of Aragon. When Kingdoms of Aragon and Castile united to form the Kingdom of Spain, Barcelona became it's most important port city.
