The rivalry between the two most relevant social groups was increased in the Castilian towns during the XIII century, when the king Alphonso the Wise (1252-1284) felt in favour with the caballeros villanos and introduced new rules and laws that banished the ancient customary laws (fueros). In 1282 the hombres buenos and the nobility were organised in brotherhoods, called hermandades. They had an active role in the politic decisions. Until 1325 they try the possibility of a new kind of feudal monarchy in Castile based in a relevant influence of local hierarchies, organised in hermandades, with a representation in the Cortes (Parliament) and the use of customary laws. The fall of the hermandad happened about 1312. This fact opened to the caballeros villanos a new way to collaborate with the monarchy and his wide interventionism and authoritarian politic in the towns. When in 1325 Alphonso XI finished with the hermandades, it had been disjointed and he didn't find a scarce resistance.
