The movement hermandino in Alava distinguishes two periods:
During the first one, Vitoria and other councils will be part of general fraternity that from ends of the XIIIth century numerous Castilian councils were created for .
The fraternity was born in a moment of weakening of real authority motivated successively by the rebellion of the infante don Sancho and of the minorities of Fernando IV and of Alfonso XI, and they show the strength that at the end of the XIIIth century there have reached them councils, which join for the defense of his jurisdictions, privileges and freedoms.
One was trying to finish the reigning disorder and guarantee exercise of the justice to finish with the abuses of the nobility feudal.
From the second half of the XIVth century, the Basque Country suffers them consequences of the partisan struggles. A series of fraternity believe in the Basque territories to resemblance of the rest of the Crown of Castile in the first years of the reign of Enrique II.
The first municipal brotherhood of general character was signed in Burgos, on May 27, 1282, for an about thirty of councils Castilian, between that three natives of Alava appear: Vitoria, Salvatierra and Salinillas de Buradón. His formation produced to itself during the rebellion of the infante don Sancho against his father Alfonso X and came motivated for
"many excesses and many dannos and many ffuerças and deaths and presones and despechamientos without sser oydos and desonrras and many others things without way, which were [...] against ffuero and to big danno of all the reynos of Castile, of Toledo, of León, of Gallisa, of Seuilla, of Córdoua, of Murçia, of Jahén and of the Algarbe, ffasta this one tienpo that ueno our ssennor the infante don Sancho".
The duration of this brotherhood, to which it would be necessary to add others of diverse character, was very brief, since proper Sancho IV, being already king, it suppressed all of them in 1284.
During the minority of Fernando IV, successor of Sancho IV, movement hermandino re-arose with renewed vigor. Three big ones fraternity formed in 1295, that of Castile, that of the León and Gallicia and that of those of the archbishopric of Toledo and of the Extremadura Castilian. The three were confirmed in the Spanish Parliament of Valladolid, assembled on August 8, 1295.
The Castilian brotherhood was signed in Burgos, on June 6, as it is clear in the copy of the letter that it was dedicated to the council of Nájera and his text is inspired straight in that of the brotherhood of 182.
According to G. Martínez Díez the councils of Alava that integrated in Castilian brotherhood were those of Salinas of Añana, Salinillas of Buradón, Treviño, Vitoria, Lapuebla de Arganzón, Santa Cruz of Campezo, Labastida, Peñacerrada, Antoñana, Porthole of Corres (today You run) and Salvatierra.
In addition to this and other general fraternity, inside the territory of Alava others developed of local character:
On January 28, 1293 a brotherhood was agreed between the council of Salvatierra and those of Eulate, Aranarache, Larraona and seven towns of Amescoa, placed along the way that it was joining Salvatierra with Estella across the Opacua port, in order to that
"we all are more defended et more anparados of a lot of evil et dannos that we were occurring rarely reçibir you et us"
The formation of this local fraternity, which number was of fourteen in 1449, arose from 1417 the provincial Brotherhood of Alava. (ftes. to see the links and wikipedia-alava)
