The Sisters Who Ruled Medieval Europe | Queens of France, England, Germany & Sicily

Описание: Every royal mother’s dream was to marry her children off to important royals, and hopefully, her daughters would be queens. That dream came true for Beatrice of Savoy, who was just the wife of the Count of Provence, Berengar, but through her four daughters—Margaret, Eleanor, Sanchia, and Beatrice—she became the ancestor of many monarchs of Europe. While Beatrice of Savoy never had any sons, her beautiful daughters were a great consolation: Margaret, the pious Queen of France who kept her composure while her husband was held captive, Eleanor, the Queen of England who helped her beloved husband win his throne back, Sanchia, the Queen of Germany who didn’t get to enjoy her title for long, and Beatrice, the Countess of Provence and Forcalquier and Queen of Sicily who was alienated by her family because of her inheritance.
