This vision, defended by some historians, who even named this phase of the history of the Asturian kingdom as that of the "lazy kings," originated because it appears that in that moment there were no important military actions against al-Andalus.
See mõningate ajaloolaste nägemus, mille järgi seda perioodi nimetati isegi laiskade kuningate ajaks, tuleneb nähtavasti sellest, et sel ajal ilmselt ei olnud tähtsaid sõjalisi aktsioone Al-Ándalusi vastu.
