Fueros edit

Have re-edited the paragraph on "Dios, Patria, Fueros, Rey".

the entry read that "Sometimes added to this at the time of the First Carlist War (1833 – 1840) was a fourth tenet, Fueros. Stipulating the desires of the regions of Navarra and the Basque provinces for regional autonomy and a preservation of the Fueros, which were rights granted to these provinces by their sovereigns in the Middle Ages. This call faded after the First War becoming distanced from traditional Carlism until the positions of Navarra and the Basque regions were on opposite sides during the Spanish Civil War.".

The above is unreferenced. Also, it seems pretty arbitrary. "Fueros" used to appear and disappear in the motto during verious periods. Some scholars claim it was incorporated slightly prior to the Third Carlist War (Corduera 2001) and then gradually went out of use in the 20th century. Another period of intense usage was the 1960s and later, when the Huguista faction started to promote and use consistently the term (vide Clemente 2003). Apart from periodical surge and oblivion, "fueros" has been more or less frequently featured in Carlist press, iconography and theory until today. Actually, the phenomenon of "fueros" re-appearing and disappearing in the motto begs a dedicated study, which - as far as I am aware of - does not exist.

For the time being, I have replaced the paragraph with a simple flag that there is fueros-including version, without going into specifics as to why, when etc. --Dd1495 (talk) 10:46, 12 March 2021 (UTC)Reply
