]]> After the War of the Spanish Succession, the Spanish internal order underwent changes aimed at establishing a centralised administration. The territorial privileges and privileges were left behind in much of the Peninsula and the defeated were removed from administrative responsibilities. The document is a reflection of this fact: on 15 April 1716 the Audiencia de Cataluña (replacing the Junta de Gobierno) was set up. The Council of Castile decided that both the Public Prosecutors and the Regent had to be Castilian, as did many of the Oidores.

In total, of the 18 Ministros Togados of the Audiencia, 7 were Catalan, 8 Castilian, 2 Aragonese and 1 unspecified.
