    The English Charlemagne: A Plantagenet-Capet TL

    It’s a joke in reference to the idea that Edward III would not be seen as English.

    The English Charlemagne: A Plantagenet-Capet TL

    Charlemagne was a German speaking barbarian, didn’t stop him from getting appropriated by both the Germans and the French.

    Nah, that’s small compared to what the merchants and gentry class did.

    You mean the gutting of the monarchy by the merchant classes?

    Julius Caesar: I’m just a dictator, not a king. Which traitor is trying to make me king?*staring daggers at Marcus Antonius* Octavian: Greetings citizen, what? I’m a king? Nah, I’m your friendly First Citizen here. Time to kill that traitor Marcus Antonius who’s trying to make HIMSELF a king.

    How are they surviving even though they are Serbian, in rebellion against the homeland and they rule over majority Greeks?

    What you mean? Becoming a king,especially a king of kings, is the last thing an honourable Roman should do! Their allegiance is to the republic, to democracy!

    YES. Copied straight from it.

    I think he originally called himself king of kings(Basileus Basileōn) too. Shame he dropped that. King of Kings is a far cooler title.

    Could The Roman Empire have conquered all of the British isles, had it chosen to try?

    Time to conquer some more dirty to secure that coastline!

    What if Japan was a colonial super power before the 19th century?

    Skills issue The French were never quite serious about building up their NA colonies. Much of it came down to neglect, like them never really bothered to settle the lands, even though Louisiana for example was perfect for settlement. That said, despite the ‘unprofitable’ nature of NF, I don’t...

    They probably don’t really care if someone killed John and they are framed for it. He was a small guy thinking he was big. Just the lord of a few towns in Thrace, that’s what he is.There are a lot of ways they could excuse what happened too. We don’t know this enemy boss was here. We just...

    They tried really hard and failed, so we already had the answer. Could a more genius emperor do it? Perhaps?

    Maid of Norway, Queen of Scotland: A Plantagenet Britain Timeline

    It’s actually 14 for married women, 16 for single women, and 21 for males, so Margaret is already of age. Time to kick out the regents.

    Maid of Norway, Queen of Scotland: A Plantagenet Britain Timeline

    That depends on whether the king/queen assert their authority much earlier. No one questioned Edward III’s right to rule for example when he overthrew the regents and seized power at the age of 17.That said, I don’t think the age of majority in England was 21. Henry VI was declared of age at the...

    If John made an explicit request to meet his great aunt, I think it would be difficult for Blanche to shoot him down without consulting Adrienne first.Nevertheless, if she did meet him, the response would likely be a bit more diplomatic, but just the same.

    The French Kings made the pope their bitch. Now you have the chance to make the pope YOUR bitch. At any rate, the pope still had plenty of influence over the other monarchies, and as the example of Louis exemplified, the Pope clearly still had power over investiture etc even in France until...

    And The investiture controversy ended in the Pope’s favour.So the monarchs no longer had the right to choose bishops. That right now belonged to the pope. Yes GALLICAN Church. Louis XIV IOTL broke the Pope’s power over the French Church by taking back the right to administrate the Catholic...
