context_page_description: The Battle of Villalar was a battle in the Revolt of the Comuneros fought on April 23, 1521 near the town of Villalar in Valladolid province, Spain. The royalist supporters of King Charles I won a crushing victory over the comuneros rebels. Three of the most important rebel leaders were captured, Juan de Padilla, Juan Bravo, and Francisco Maldonado. They were executed the next day, effectively ending armed resistance to Charles I.
context_section_description: Demoralized, and without leaders or an army, the rebel cities of Old Castile soon surrendered to the Constable's armies.  It took slightly longer for the Constable's armies to march south to New Castile and retake Madrid.  They likely would have taken Toledo as well, but a French invasion of Spanish-controlled Navarre meant that the army needed to immediately be recalled north to fight the French and Navarrese.  As a result, the Revolt stretched out several months more, with Toledo resisting until October.
