AbstractThe presence in Castile in the 15th century of a group of families coming from Portugal, was determinant for its history. We are specially referring to the families Pacheco, Pimentel, Portocarrero and Acufia, settled in Castilian land from the end of the XIV century. Some of the members of those families were outstanding people in the important events of the kingdom; they directed the politics, they managed the king, they took part in all the international relationships, specially with Portugal, and they entered in the aristocracy, creating important lineages. Because of the common origin of these families, we find among them an approach of its ideas as well as political alliances reached by means of marriages. All of this helped the existence of the Portuguese political party. These families with their social and economic origin and with their big influence on any political choice, became the real protagonists of the Castilian politics at the moment. They made up aristocratic leagues against the monarchic power, causing an important inestability. In a general way, those families supported an oligarchic politics against the monarchic power. Certainly, their influence was very important to lead the kingdom's choices. The study of these lineages of Portuguese origin in going to be very useful to understand the political and social situation of Castile at the end of the middle age
