  • The Wambid Dynasty is a European royal house of Spanish origin. It is Europe's oldest and most influential dynasty, with branches of the family having ruled in Spain, Italy, Aquitaine, Africa, Romania, Albion, Lyonesse and Bohemia. It rose to prominence in AD 636 when its first known member, Chintila, was elected King of the Visigoths. His grandson Wamba, for whom the dynasty is named, became king in 672 and Roman Emperor in the West in 674 after defeating the Emperor Gregorius. Wamba was overthrown in 687 by his nephew and son-in-law Egica, but the throne passed peacefully to Egica's son (and Wamba's grandson) Ardo in 701. Ardo died in 721, and in his will he divided his lands among his four children. His eldest son Tulga received Hispania and the imperial dignity; his second son Agila received northern Italy and the city of Rome; his third son Euric received Africa, Sicily and southern Italy; and his daughter Amalasuntha and her husband received Burgundy. The three younger branches of the family continued to owe allegiance to the descendents of Tulga, but over generations they asserted their independence more and more.
