Overview
Toledo on the 1066 bookmark is the Dhunnunid taifa. The legends card calls Yahya duke of Toledo. The character page lists clan government, Sunni faith, Baranis culture, age 43, and 14 counties. Patch 1.20.1.2 rates the seat Medium. His bookmark name is Rags to Riches.
The historical reign in the city starts in 1075, after al-Mamun, so this seat is earlier than that year. Alfonso VI takes Toledo on 25 May 1085. The León page is that king, still sharing Iberia with his brothers on the day the bookmark opens.
Starts
1066
Yahya al-Qadir is the emir the bookmark seats. Clan opinion is the domestic half of the reign. A holy war from León or Castile is the foreign half. Allies among the other taifas are the usual answer, and they can change sides. Read faith hostility and the alliance list on the diplomacy screen before you stand alone.

Later impact
After 25 May 1085 Alfonso sends al-Qadir to Valencia under Álvar Fáñez. Yahya is killed there on 28 October 1092. Toledo stays in Christian hands through Sagrajas. Yusuf ibn Tashfin defeats Alfonso on 23 October 1086 and leaves the city untaken.
Played from 1066, the campaign is the years before that surrender. A clan faction and a Christian coalition are the two pressures on the taifa. The faith guide covers hostility and conversion. The character page has the coin of al-Qadir and the mosque of Bab al-Mardum.
