How it ended, as its article says
Dissolved by Spain, 1715. Read from the article's section “History - Fall of Mallorca” by its grammar; the claim is only that the article says so.
However, during the War of the Spanish Succession the Crown of Aragon mostly backed the claims of the Archduke Charles and with his defeat the victorious Philip V of Spain abolished the kingdom via the Nueva Planta decrees in 1715.

12 rulers, 8 with terms dated as terms, covering 1230 – 1396. Median reign 13 years. 0 of 8 handovers irregular - a killing, a deposition, a rival claimant, a rising or a coup beside it. A blank in the last column means no kin on record, which is coverage, never “unrelated”.
