Born in 1462, Joanna was the daughter of King Henry IV of Castile and his wife Joan of Portugal. Joanna's legitimacy was questioned, leading to a longstanding dispute over the Castilian throne.

In 1475, Joanna's supporters called for her recognition as queen, but the Castilian Civil War ensued. The conflict ended with Isabella's ascension, and Joanna remained in a position of political marginalization. She lived much of her life in a state of exile and ultimately passed away in 1530, with her claim to the throne largely forgotten.
