A wonderful article which gives a fascinating insight into some of the intrigues of medieval Europe. No copyright problems. Referencing is good. Article is long enough and new enough. Any of the suggested hooks would be OK, but the first one (ALT0) stands out as the best in my mind. -- RoySmith (talk) 23:33, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
