The origin of Andorra:

Legend has it that Charlemagne of the Frankish Kingdom awarded a charter to set up a parish in Andorra in return for the fighting between Andorra and the Moors, and appointed Count Hougail as bishop.

Since 1 1 century, Bishop Hougail's power has gradually extended to the whole of Andorra, and Andorra became its parish in 1 133.

1278, Bishop Hougell reached an agreement with France, and Andorra was jointly owned by Count Fuwa of France and Bishop Hougell (the scope of the agreement is the embryonic form of Andorra's politics and territory today). Later, the sovereignty of Count Fuwa was transferred to King Navarra. In 1607, King Henry IV of France ordered the French head of state and Bishop Hougele to have the sovereignty of Andorra at the same time.
