Historical recreation of a miquelet, voluntary Catalan militia very popular around Catalonia and Valencia between the 17th and 19th centuries and who had especial importance during the War of the Spanish Succession, where they fought on the Austrias’ (Hasburgs) side with the rest of the Crown of Catalonia and Aragon against the Bourbons, who were backed by Castille and France.
