Middle March (al-Andalus)
The Middle March was the central frontier district of al-Andalus facing the Christian kingdoms of northern Iberia, with its capital first at Toledo and from 946 at Medinaceli. Under the Umayyads of Córdoba it was held by military governors and frontier lords. After the caliphate collapsed in the early 11th century, the march broke up into taifas such as Toledo and Molina.
