it is baby one very nasty game of factions, very deep and very masked at moments that it is almost impossible to track it all and just some "soda" version of history is known generally etc... it is important to look at all as one continuity and other things i said before not to repeat, with to me unknown starting point and importance of every event i.e. its proper readings factionaly (they were never same, except few conspirators hehe) and also views changed etc. but some things are visible...

you know also what i remembered, something i mentioned few times but never told you all... that de la Broquierre episode and all, man full of nice words for Serbia and then our ruler George Brankovic... of course French (despite Burgundy once being different) and worked for Bur. duke who was related and even from main French royal line... BUT in given moment France was not only in known war against English (and us all)) but also in some semi-civil war with Bertrandon's employer and duke of Burg. Philip, talking about Bons, also le Bon :) being in moment of his agent meeting with George, important - Brankovic (if you followed) - ta-daa allied with English ;) and his troops even captured Jeanne Dark :) etc etc. if you understand, me not to waste words... so George was "nice, rich and Serbia thumbs up" for him etc. Of course we have nothing to do with Joan episode and she was our side before ) but hope you understand this as well, to extent... factions baby, factions ; Of course Philip of Burgundy later changed sides and supported new French king, his relative from main lines etc, but in given moment was with England... we also later of course supported French kings - directly from empire of heaven :) lovely, and i really hope people understand all theoretically

also are interesting these few moments of few French mentioned on Turk side, possibly even on Kosovo against us etc. I wrongly interpreted it as some "Templar remnants" (which was true for those who remined in regions after our crush)) but it wasn't that.... could be that France, or some French factions, allied and cooped with Turks much before than they quasi did in XVI c... so in peak of hundred years was (as explained it was continental war) maybe Frence and Genova already made some contcats and ties, partly against us as well, but this is deep subject and just as shortly.... kiss, kiss forgiven as you helped us after our return from empire of heaven :)

lastly and to go back earlier in time, much more pleasant... it could be that it all started with that increased desire to revive "holy roman emperor" title after long decades and when we seemed to be agreement with France and supported Stefan and Charles C. etc... but something happened then and factions created, it was almost 60years without holder, one Habsburg tried and was killed, Luxed took it and we and English fastly tied with Bavarian and that German sides etc etc. Generally it is something about it and around time of its revival - so many decades after Constantin Staufen we all turned our backs and new rivalries formed.... generally not understood enough, but as some historians called Stefan Anjou (king of Albania) intervention and all after Sicily esp. as "first European/world war" - events after 1308 and kiss-kiss on Lys but you pull out and we go to Palpatine and that side :) could be called "second euro/world war" in some light sense ;) And hundred years war was part of it... some say if Ludwig lived longer it would be much more widespread potentionaly but as it was - it was localized as "Anglo-French" war so on continetal periphery :) but really it was continental war and we had role, but of course our factions were "good guys" :yes ..... :) ...i say always, Turks ruined a lot of fun for us, but what to do now... it is XXI and it is only about Uranus, but who likes hope you can understand even closely all i talked ; ...awaiting you, and if subjects are unpleasant, something earlier maybe, Stefan was great hero :) ...but generally there are much intersting ones from even before so we can talk XI or XII ;

really when you arrange some pieces of puzzle correctly you reach some "eureka" moment and there is one flow of solutions and ideas and many things become clearer...

totally unimportant example but with this solutions i gave in last few posts even "trivial" things like Abraham Ortelius map map become clearer, his seemingly deep knowledge about Serbia (to repeat he put even it twice on map as rascia and Serbia, while he did not even mark some nations etc. knew our medieval cities etc) so i guess that is solved... not only that he knew about us through Italian travels but also Ortelius was Bavarian origin man, living in Spanish Neverlands, Flanders etc all once also connected with Burgundy etc. so could be said that our fame was still strong there in his times and similar. It were also lands of where "black rascia" was also widely wear, together with Spain and England, but rarley named so in France and similar :yes Guess ex-Burgundy was place of our fame and could be connected, plus his Bavarian roots, so guess XIV events were still widely known in his time and our role "respected" or valued...

not so important but even those small things let's say solved ;... lovely stories and guess it was why HIM declared empire as well, people banged heads for long with it as it was not small thing to do in high middle ages when whole Europe was connected and it was not early middle ages when anyone could do it and papacy and "Roman" emperors role was weak - so my proposition, and not only mine is that Dushan and Ludwig had great laugh with it, but great respect from Luxemburg side which waited till our emperor gave green light again in 1355 to crown their own candidate etc etc. to stress out or underline again. lots of subjects, hope someone joins and we look at some things together...

yes, i BTW found original and much greater maps of Europe by Ortelius and talking about his "knowledge of our cities" :) and not to confuse some who may use it ) to say that on continental map he put some 6 cities in both Rascia and Serbia and they are something like "Taunanburg (or like) Dragusa, Kargona or Zargona or third" etc :lol so great knowledge :) BUT i was talking about further maps of regions he made where he put some really obscure places and cities that did exists in our state but were already abandoned and ruined by his time, Stalac(o) etc. so great knowledge while on greater map he put some names more like from Tolkien books or never heard ones hence my laugh

BUT again his placing of small Celtic village and suburb of Singidunum on place of Belgrade, village not even known much by Romans, and not called as such by both Serbs and Huns then was shock again - and he gave correct name of it Taurunum :yes how come and why no idea but lovely and would die to know which map or advice was base but super... would like our capital to be called Taurunum today, again sounds Tolkiensque :) and cool but was real name by Celts of today suburb

Château de Chenonceau, place where one tapestry is preserved depicting Kosovo battle etc... as it is medieavl-renesance made often is credited as one of preserved documents of Franco-Serb ties and similar... Revolutionaries wanted to ruin it along along other places but it was preserved due to bridge mostly ;) also was known place of origies in XVI c etc...

BUT with this knowledge and all considered could be said that tapestry - similar to Bayeux one which depicts great victory of our pals Normans against Dannes :) - this one is not at all sign of "Franco-Serb" ties but included in royal "decor" in those years to represent great Frnaco-Turk victory over Serbs and English :lol so be careful with interprets and ways you see history :) most seriously

but lovely... historians say to me that maybe much more places in France (often ruined as well as archives) had more facts and maybe material evidence of some our role and involvement but did not survive due to plague, papa-Jacques and all events... but hey, for historical correctness it is important to say that our relations were not "positive" nor one way, but in huge animosity as well etc etc. so hope i'm adding and very very interested of every detail and similar... wiki pages are very wrong that "our first documented (while mostly eaten)) ties" date to marriage with Helen Capet etc.... there was documented ties with Bodin and Raymond of Toulouse (once center of Visigothic kingdom as well etc), documented (in sources way) ties with Normans etc... if we are to go undocumented maybe as far as some early centuries and even some idea that both were centers of some Celtic states before etc..... BUT again very careful with interpretations of our relations after some 1308 and tepestry as said :) .... :p

couldn't gain complete answer to this day on roots or specificness of French pronunciations and speak, so maybe oif you have some idea also interested... if you know what i mean, for example we all say Karl and French Sharl etc (later also carried to England in some version) so i have no idea what is base, maybe some Gaulish but doubt? ...so also interesting subject to me.... also while i put English among "ekavian" it is known that they call "E" as "I" in our and similar... so generally also subject i would like to know more and what is suspected reasons etc etc.... but generally linguistics are just secondary subject, hope you can join with some valuations of historical and political events of era as i presented and where you agree/disagree....

I mean as an observer (if not upgraded) in Frankokratia organisation i have at least right to ask, don't I :) ...you know also what is interesting and why i express some doubts, as we also have some proposed Gaulish words in language - said intentionally Kalish as suggested is that our Scordisci and Serdi etc are Gaulish not Celtic globally etc. - but they don't have that French sounding at all, if you get me :) nor are softer or softening or softier etc. So "i" propose also sluga (court title also again) and often mention as example and is word found in Britain as almost similar or pejorative etc... and it doesn't have that French "schmek" if you follow and is more connectable with Britain Celts and not Gauls, so clear.... so many things and solutions are dubious to the bone and it is in some false stage as science, overly politicised or similar.... Taaa-daaaa since i used by chance one germanism and it is language generally full of "sh-" starting words example i gave of Charles (written as Stefan in French again)) and French pronunciation actually IS original Germanic maybe and Karl we mostly use is our hard-elite Latin one, ha! ...but evrything is dubious, i mean first part of sentence while our hard elite K is true, but is Sh actually Germanic etc etc.

so very dubious and speculative solutions all around and quasi ones, pardon to pros ;... but of all known things to me is the best that we have some Roman military and elitist words (and to extent Greeks but they blew up with their AI spelling that confused others while they kept E)) but we above all, almost nobody else use :yes If also turns out that names like Preneste and similar are our word Italians changed not to be related with us :) - super ;... nothing to ask Italians on those subjects as i'm more expert for Latin than them so they could only ask me :) but remains open question and call for some that could help me with French and am i right about this also... not offended if you won't join but will continue with details from our history papa-Jacques actually DID NOT eat :) ...so, French ruined dam on Marica/Evronos river by the order of king Stefan V and prince VI Valois and then............ :lol

and it seems that French pronunciations were already "legendary" across whole continent really early so quasi is story that both in Bruges (so some Flanders) and on Sicily (probably elswewhere but known examples) their enemies forced captured French (or suspected ones) to say some words they couldn't and similar, quasi as story ;

very good example of what i was talking about (modern) Greek and listen carefully ; ...but they have dual use of it, guess based on some their known rules and lots of "ikavian" examples in contrast to us etc. even slightly in name of tribe as we would say Kreeks or Helenii and they often "Elines" etc. or example of famous sport club -aikos versus should be -ekos, so there are some their grammatcical rules so ask them... but could be said "ekavians" esp. in ancient language.... btw, river name is Evros and possible (though maybe fictional as whole battle and it was natural freak incident) "Turk commander" that crushed us maybe "osmanlised" once Evronos :) ..... :lol as said take whole event as mythical and maybe totally untrue from eastern sources, but nonetheless river name i wrote wrongly :)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEiLSFJwS4I

Itanian-Canadian author demanded taking down of nice video i posted as very interesting to understand elite Latin... guess his right, but not something uniformelly used on youtube, as many bands' songs used by others should be taken as well etc ;...anyway to repost it, glad he included lyrics in video, very important and he used elite Latin pronuns - so not only that it has few our words but also melodics and way of speak closest to Serb ekavian etc so worth having and listening for understanding reasons as previous was again taken down....

...instead we demanding him to take down our song :) ...don't understand at (not that song thing)) all above historical stand of some nations, above all Italians and Brits/English as they knew some things about our older history and similar but also about our alliance in XIV and XV, but they decided to stay "low level" or quiet/pushed on it and it is now more some puzzles and similar (while they are hiding as "my precious" some pieces of our nobility clothes in museums)... if you get it no idea why, country on most "emperors" bones after Italy (and maybe most legendary legion bones) and so on, but it is just puzzles and similar.....they all not to lynch us because we did it to Christ? because we crushed all you? becuase so stubborn in defence of Kesars reforms of kalenda? Three fingers? :) ....anyway, talking it all to conclude that cutest and funniest thing to me is that we "eaten" or hidden own "ee" in name of tribe, as well as to tribes as Greeks etc. for unknown reasons, but as said it is due to reforms of language in XIX being influenced by western regions speaking person/s and they already "eaten" E in name of our tribe long ago before ;) but doesn't matter at all, of course Serbi and it is not political question at all..... something else, considering previous posts humoristically - as we concluded that "SH" is germanic as said, thought about St Giacomo Colonna - it seems that our original should be then Giacomo "Kara" Kolumna :lol (if you followed)

looked little at all those "shatos" in region "Loir et Cher" and to me personally this Lavardin is most beautiful :yes (not royal one) thinking about buying it :) ...and it seems that papa-Jacques once stayed in it and it was exactly the one with most documents about our events :) ...join me on some questions from there. Unimportant, but looked and it says we are "associal (-ated) member" of Frankokratia... don't care but generally funny as Greece, Albania, Bulgaria and Romania are full members and we again something else like in middle ages and Frankokratia is going around us and then crusade..... :) (just missed Hungaro-Croatia flank) ....as said not political nor linguistical and not "frankophone" world, nor they are importing any migrants to us ;) ....it is lovely as some respect of history in that sense and of course they will gladly allow some erections to Nemanjic dynasty.... and of course George above all :) ...i don't speak French but it is one lovely (hehe) language i will never speak :) but really like european part of "frankokratia" as i like history :yes again open call for help from there, would really like to "read" or totally get into all events in XIII and XIV, but earlier as well and i think we had a lot of ties (really in contrast to "Roman" and German which are clear, Franch were much harder to read and decode so still some help is needed).... about Vercingetorix I always say to French - it wasn't quite as presented and we gave him clear options, but then.... blah blah :) most beautiful is our legendary "punching" of Frankia in XIV no sarcasm :yes

already talked, but now as i very expanded whole story and we reached some conslusions - and it is not just Edward, Ludwig and Dushan (and of course often forgotten Andrea due to size and his republican status, and at least in moments Kantakouzenos etc) alone as some rulers and elites around them - i say again what also connects them is approach and grants/support to spiritual franciscans, William of Okham, Petrarca and really range of figures and factions etc. that often attacked both Luxemburgs and French, verbally above all. So i'm 110% sure in that as historical truth of faction/alliance, no argument... Edward maybe tried to stay "unvisible" but all around continent knew that behind Dushan is directly "Roman emperor" in times, Ludwig and why they released Palman and avoided battle with HIM etc etc... so when you add other figures and factions i mentioned it was one very smart policy for times and prepared, not any incident nor mindless attacks etc.

...however moment regarding us that most confuses me, and i also mentioned, is that "attack on Argonese" which doesn't fit at all and it happened in some 1340s for example, time when there was evident that Luxes will react to our policies and that there will be attack on France soon... so any clashes with Aragonese were not in interest.... could be interpreted in various ways, or did not happen in some battle way and maybe they gave some territory to our faction and Dushan peacefully. As first option... second maybe just intervention because they spread outside of Duchy of Athens borders so our king "corrected" border back, second. Third Venetian wish to force Aragonese in alliance, similar to Kantakouzenos so Dushan acted as "fist".... or those were not still fully accepted by Aragonese and were still maybe "Catalan company" that Aragon did not recognize as "their" fully...... or, finally last option or interpret - Dushan still acted in agreement with others as "good cop", versus Edward being "bad cop" for example ;) and relatively speaking of course as he was also relative of French kings etc. so quasi he showed some care and (as Miluten before) quasi punished Aragonese and protected French widows there, with small humor... also why he maintained some channel with papacy, wasn't any balancing at all and "two chairs", i read it as someone whose role was to try to show French that "he might be their friend still" etc (also why he and Loius also avoided longer wars)

however you read it and interpret it i say worth adding for lovers now when i greately advanced whole story - as it is moment that doesn't fit from our side, but it does fit or is easily fittable if you consider what i said as possible explains above... while in "war" we still showed friendly face to Franks ) ....question of "good and bad guys" is irrlevant but hey again just for fun as those were by some western historians "first european great wars" glad that our most potent ruler of time was on that side, haha ; if not sainthood status by us, he gained immortality in history of Ecumenical patriarchate as (together with Michael 8) only "Roman emperors" or of these parts excommunicated by it :) ....if you get it, that's where, due to small details, still need some help from France for example to successfully conclude story of "what happened" from 1316-13xx, if you agree with this as probable version of real historical events, guess English and Germans would ; and so on

great is confusion on many things that at first look less important and and are but if you try make some detailed picture they confuse or distract... so only one page i've seen says that papa-Jacques was "a Gascon" (origin) and none else mentions it, while French would not agree :) group related with Basques or Vasks. If so it fits in his anti-Scot stance :) (as Gascons had some English alliance) ....also one page says he was son "of shoemaker" while most say son of merchant from his city and one of merchant and moneychanger ; (not impossible both but...) If son of moneychanger it then explains his crusade against Miluten as our king was known as one distributing fake money around continent :lol ...and so on

or that lovely story of Napoleone Orsini, cardinal and one whose influence and "grey eminence" role in Avignon spans few popes and was almost "motor" of few events, though during Clement (as most) temporarily aligned himself with Colonnas but it fastly went into another rift with Rome and Giacomo fastly "returning" where he belongs to say ) but Napoleone had great role and one cute name ) and yet another Italian that built his name mostly on French soil (today and then more-less))... couldn't miss it. And why is (to me) that possible rift among Philip "iron" and Charles "C" so interesting and why France was something else... so while quasi "close relations" or two full-bros are often mentioned, since Boniface events it is mentioned that Charles wasn't in agreement with Philip etc etc... so was it really as i see, "putsch" by Charlie C. and different stand with papacy by his line, that iritaded all and also reason for "puching" by all, really interests me - must say, see small confusion and uncertainty in French knowers on it, but it was intended as such i guess, almost like our events in way that role is uncertain ;....so why i ask for opinions.

France in times, highly recommendable subject but in "tiny details".... laughs and tears guaranteed, often together... Oriflamme knights :lol ...was it really needed such "game of destiny" that one of main faction leaders/motors was Napoleon :) and many such symbolic things... but ultimately i developed some affection and is connective, so careful with what their kings really thought, as said few times... and careful with Stefan Anjou, often called leader of "guelph faction" in Italy and there was arguably no greater "ghibellinichina" since Barbarella on the field :) and he was "pro-papal" only if popes agreed with him ; ...lovely, given some focus on figures of both royal brothers Charleses (no, not "the fool")) especially and also why i ask etc.... as said million are subjectsand impossible to see or cover, so if you have that "eureka" moment and like themes, grateful to pointing what you see as crucial, don't be shy at all....... exchange-office owner's son declaring crusade on famous coin falsificator, hahaa :)

one more thing - really among millions - from my earlier notice and to understand additionally some humor....

so in short, one realtively unimportant pope dies in 1342, same year of death of Napoleone btw ; - and next pope, Avignon and French one for total laics of course, so line like "rift with Rome" are fun... hastly elections are made in Avignon - btw story also but for story - French king Philip VI seen on Crecy photo above :) sends his son Jean le Bon also above ) to influence elections but he was late :) nonetheless their candidate was elected and became pope despite Jean being late as at Poitiers ) ...so new pope is elected that seen further complications in continental relations, Clement VI - and in his time Luxemburgs take "king of Romans" title to frustrate us and Ludwig, but also our king elevates himself and other interesting things in his mandate (and of course death of Ludwig as greatest punch) also btw and for story, just to say you to recognize known figures and who supported who etc

but now for that humoristic detail, as i noticed some time ago - he made all cardinals French very soon (already dominant from before) and as said "with a strong accent of the Auvergne" region ; ...so my humor is clearer if you know older history, as it was tribe or confederation of Vercengetorix and we responeded with alot of kesars :) so not only humor at French generally but at this cute detail as well, hopefully effective )

....on Stefan-Charles again.... it is not about that nor that, nor my liking is about "his manly nose" to quote Dante :lol Yes, was capable strategist and personal high courage (alleged)) is unquestionable, nothing less significant architect :) but really like him for other reasons, not just for that or his struggle with papalitaat (calling it funny but it had zero German-cardinals esp. later as said)) or with our old rival Byzant... no, no, not exclusively that. While i before praised Louis IX and Philip IV factions (as i defined) as looking more "outside" (while Philip dubious as ever but he took it, Louis great example of few lost interventions outside of continent)) now I also respect Charles A. (and maybe C.) as, being some imaginary counterfactions to those two they led more "isolationistic" and better said "continental policy" tying with us all and similar so in contrast to many who see our deals as maybe imperialistic or based on greed i see them as cooperation and based on some new likes but with Franks etc etc.... maybe not even trying to explain it deep, just some feeling that Charles was OK and, while we theoretically had Louis daughter and Philips "ear" and coop maybe few advices as well - it IS documented that with Charles A and C :) we had alliances and similar and together we led engaged and responsible continental policy, perfectly said :) punch to Flanders, punch to Byzant, punch to Aragon and so on :) ....really not even trying to understand but something brought me to "liking" Charles and again it is not exclusively Byzant nor papacy thing... like continental policy ) ....maybe feeling is that we all punched later French "bit too much" while they were not "soft" at all by their alliance with Turks and sending us "on heaven" :) ....IDK, Stefan was alright and responsible politician hehe... finishing and i hopefully gave few answerable quests to French interestents for goodbye, really intersted and find forums best for it )

great are stories, no sarcasm and so many details people simply don't know and maybe also good illustration is title of "Charles Anjou" (Stefan Capet) photo in Wiki "some old guy" :) (chopper of heads))... simply don't know which to present and when etc. which ones you maybe know so not to vaste words etc. so hope you can build some picture on your own with just some details now and then... but you should join above all with something

our ties with Wittelsbach family, of Ludwig? Old, by moment of culmination in XIV at least few centuries, but who knows from before ;... so one who gained almost whole Bavaria after our "old pal" :) Hainry "the lion" was deposed was one of closest allies of Barbarella, hero of some battle around Verona which enabled Barba easy pass etc. And one who almost killed one then cardinal and later pope whose mandate spans important events in our history, rise of Nemanja etc. On some imperial session... with battle axe. (but Barba intervened) So we were very much in ties with Wittlesbachs from long before and important is to note that they rose to power (while older) during Barbarella times, us we to extent :) AND important as taking Hainrich land, man we punched as well when we could :) When same cardinal become later pope one of first to "bow" and recognize papal authority was then Hungarian king, son of our wife of previous and speculatively aunt of Nemanja... but that is contested and not sure as well as from which line was Nemanja.... of course we've taken different position and Staufen one and it proved in practice our ruler man in some great touch with Barba and also Wittelsbachs etc.

hence is interesting that moment of why we and some Roman factions later abandoned Staufens, supported French etc. i tried to give some answers via eventual help of Constantin (Fredie II) Staufen taking part in some attacks on commies under Luca Savelli :) but was it just that etc... or offence as he spread falconry and dog breeding around continent 400 after us, without even mentioning us in Wikipedia? :lol ...lovely stories, hope i with very few words made even this tie with Wittelsbach closer, and their gratitude and urge to reinforce and defend us (with lives) in XIV century ; ...so we should erect something in Bavaria, most definitely :yes (most attacked, hidden and ruined nation sources/role of meds is our, if you get it, but it survived in some frame.....)

really how big is gap between myth and true history is really this subject "mythical Templars" and like to deal with it...

really from continental to (quasi) global stage, people don't realize they were more bankers and engaged in various corruption than any fighters in 1307 ; ...but on local stage I "like" texts writen about some "templars" on our sides in later battles, 80 years after destruction and ban :) or some "orthodox templars" even and so on, great falsificate of history as they were catholic to the bone, more than any other feudal nobility knight would be.... so myths, while not impossible that French were for long (as many others) among our armies, but no flags of banned order nor any members, haha ... more French were with Turks though as explained and it was their and Genoese ally :) kiss kiss remember Lys - but for truth on events

But and for lovers and our people not me to spread confusion - so i say to our people liking history again that only few months after destruction of order our "holy king" makes series of deals with French royal brothers Philip and Charles Valois so if our kingdom was even "touched" by question and felt any closenes with Templars it would never happen... our king financed French not only then but for few decades and is main reason why Dante mentions his money at all ;) and couldn't care less about any templars :) It is 2025 and time to stop lies and really some science and research to win :yes Templars, last time also, were also on our borders which surely disturbed Miluten in time when at least some tiny factions talked about attack on Serbia etc etc If templars were around in 1316 and papa-Jacques was really serious about any crusade Templars from north would gladly answer his call against us :lol so time to look at facts, while my joke about Grebostrek and them is humor, Miluten and him for sure killed quite few "turcopiliers" (Templar title again) recorded :) that much on it, 110% with Philip on this, in dissolution issue, legal process and punishment is something else ;... that much about Miluten and our royals, as for other later battles they did not exist and probably more concentrated in other form in some Iberian issues ;.... in time of our big battle theoretically could be on our side AS we were indeed against punched France, so not impossible some ex-Templar even on Dushan side as explained as we were on english side - but they did not exist nor carry any flags nor "orthodox templars" ever existed ;.... looks like minor subject but often misunderstood and missused mythically so i really hope i explained... while there is no record of any our battle against them (as i joked) there is no reliable record that they were on "our side" and Miluten would surely arest them if could, that much and they surely did not like our royalty nor nobility for same reason... but again, since time of Dushan and onwards, till fall, it is NOT impossible that some descendants of ex-Templars joined our armies as we were strongly anti-French camp there so possibly that some "forgiven Miluten's sin" :) etc etc. BUT French are recorded on Turkish side in those times and battles that kicked us out....... nice video haha, and glad we had few med remains where something could be filmed :) like angle from bird persepctive where Danube looks like almost sea coast so some film about St Stefan Anjou could be filmed there insted of Italy :lol (it is just keep or inner city of much larger fort and probably city which did not survive) but priority is now that we became "return hubs" even America offered :) (lots of money for some corrupt ones, don't see any other interest, just btw subject from news lines)) .....really hope i explained templar quasi issues well, some our people quasi like subject but don;t understand it fully, so hopefully clearer of what was and what could be.... always join from some other place to look at some issues ;

After assuming the throne, Philip inherited a sizable debt from his father's war against Aragon. By November 1286 it reached 8 tonnes of silver to his primary financiers, the Templars, equivalent to 17% of government revenue. This debt was quickly paid off, and, in 1287 and 1288, Philip's kingdom ran a budget surplus
so who is saying, who is lying as song says ) - that Philip did not repay his (not even his) debts to "great fighters" ;)

BUT...
...the deficits continued to stack up in 1293. By 1295, Philip had replaced the Templars with the Florentine Franzesi bankers as his main source of finance. The Italians could raise huge loans far beyond the capacities of the Templars, and Philip came to rely on them more and more. The royal treasure was transferred from the Paris Temple to the Louvre around this time. etc
and that is ladies and milades probably true source of why Templars could have been seen as "potential" rebelious group, and armed ;... in time of events against them however other important things happened so battles of duke Nogaret in Italy :) and papacy change so even more reasons for "holy order" to feel that they are losing ground etc... but, for some minor humor - if Philip in moment was to arrest for debt (his own)) he would have to do to various Italian bankers more than Templars ;.....where Miluten fits? not from books but in Italian sources is preserved that Venetian agents (or supporters in Italy, of that faction) in times were tracking, investigating and even seizing and processing some Italian (bankers etc) hunting Milutens money in exactly Florence, Bologna etc etc. Philip and Miluten, theoretically but with truth, demand "small crusade" against Venetians and the rest is history, Vinegia erased from history and population sold ; etc etc..... so one of rulers who had the most interest to "discilinary punish" both Venice and Templars was Miluten etc etc. but friendly :)

it is almost horrible what could happen to man (Philie) for just listening to our king...... :lol hope you understand anything, old but gold subject... hope you join with something else, how come nobody blames Albania for destruction of Staufens and all imperialism :) but seriously something else you like, this is i hope filed and understood again, while nothing is easy but in case of Temps most interesting is question of - how come even one of most powerful monarchies and crowns was in situation to be in debt amounting almost 20% of state budget to "poor warriors" :) ....as for other joke about Miluten being crucial - it was various opinions of many monarchs and for example i say that even in 1330s and further, others monarchs gave some options to French kings but things went as went and Crecy and Poitiers, fallof Paris happened... so despite my joke, it was never one monarch why giving example.... of course, some distinction among those punished by Philip and some maybe simple members whodid not have anything is also noted for end, so i told whole story that maybe some went to HIM and rest..... look at positive side, our money did help renesance :) ..... :p

long time ago i presented paper found in France where is writen "We our majesty king Philip do not owe any money to Templars and they are satanist" :) so it is source :) ...lovely and funny subjects - of course even that eventual huge rift between us and France and they also owed us money :) ...also like how our ruler George met with Burgundian agenst just few weeks before arrest of Jeanne Dark, hahaa... but that's to much, all lovely

btw and unimportant except that Bulgaria tried to launch herself into some importance long past it's old glory )), but see that several Eng pages use this map for XIII c events - which is let's say friendly not really 100% accurate nor true for given moment :) It is from some atlas from 1917 :) during joint German-Bulgar occupation of Serbia so why it grabbed more land than were real borders in moment ;... as said unimportant and i even rarely deal with Bulgaria - except lovely example from IX c of our Stefan and Bran old falconeers and dog breeders ; vs. Boris ) - interesting not only for this but also how old is name Stefan used among Serbs etc. which Bulgars preserved :yes ....but this map is untrue, political and during even war and occupation, so shouldn't be used , while unimportant... Rascia spread east before and Hungary kept some other regions etc.... unimportant map, Wiki is full of incorrect maps of many eras, but this one is great slip of one war-propaganda while we are not gonna punch and blame Bulgaria for it :) as we punched it enough times through history, haha

Anyway while that was distraction worth noting (and really nothing)) - main reason why i even ran into map is this article and events i missed (to extent) as family later merged with Dukas Komnenos of Epirus etc (also Byzantine enemy later)... but not because of it but because it predated and matches our kingdom creation and many interesting characters for us are mentioned... so who followed my story should read.... what is interesting - while was it really any Orsini is speculated and contested, if it was many things do fit in some of my presentations and also add to why Honorius (Savelli) and later Colonnas were our allies etc. What fits is that he feared Venice and asked Inokent III for protection and probably never accepted Venice suzerenty ; (e) ....in 1216 pope Savelli and Venice make another counter-balance not only to Hungary, dudes beaten by Baldwin the Leper :) but also to eventual Orsini posessions in area, by declaring our kingdom and our rulers of Dandolo and Nemanjic mix, so another easily forgettable (or totally until recently) but fitting moment and story to how i presented... France and its puppets are in moment somwhere in between and undefined, but things soon become intersting :) ...by this version it might be that it was indeed some Orsini again - hope you follow and understand story and even more visible that Rascia, Venice (under Ds)), factions of French, and Savelli, later more mentioned Colonnas were one groupings in famous events... but how Stefan Anjou ended so disliked by same Orsini beats me :) i propose as we and Roman factions against them were by then already married to Louis IX daughter and maybe, just maybe Stefan Anjou (so daughter of his brother was in Rascia) was distrusted by Orsini even for this, so even that could fit.... but long story just propositions, while Stefanwas far from "guelph" factionas explained and why i called us "trio".....

...and if you understand why are some facts or docs about some figures so "eaten" (obvious suspect papa-Jacques)) and blurred, lost... and why vampirism on question of few related to us, while Michael VIII even not so important for us (except that we put him to end)) even more is interesting of how long and when Raniero Dandolo held office and positions of power in Vinegia, procurator of St Mark, often more important than often old doges :) etc. If till 1240s and he never died early, it is very important if you get it, hence he directed marriage of Anna, orgy in Venice, and our rise etc etc. and it wasn't any "Anna came after both (quasi) evil grandpa and pap died" :) if you get it, think yes but worth repeating many times

also to inform internationals that whole "Orsini branch" family in that region has also some appropriate culmination or something interesting regarding us.... one of "Orsinis" much later married Dushan's half-bro Simeon (called Sinisha by Serbs) and he was the first to rebel, call himself emperor against legitimate one, or separate from our empire and even launch some short-lived campaign against Dushan's son Urosh etc. which he beaten back but southern regions lost any tie with central govt in most part... so, maybe sounds not nice, but HIM made mistake for leaving him alive..... and most of nobility.... :lol but Dushan was sensible and weak man ;

...something else and unhistorical to say in this moment, maybe even humoristical but nothing is funny... there is opinion of many outside that "westerners" are "naive" and easily manipulatible in some way, so why some always try to make some tiny "Troyans or fakes to them" via some ideas and lies and similar... while it is region that "dominated world" later (just because they were able to spread against very weak oponents)) in some other parts it remains as "easily manipulatable" image etc. so why i sometimes joke as our smart kings often manipulating French (for example) figures and not viceversa etc. and why sometimes looks more like we and Italians more pull the strings of some others etc etc being "old hares" or similar of politics.... so why today - to speak openly as ot is XXI - it is easy for various imperialists or even islamists to "peneterate west" etc etc. and they all quasi support some things people in the west support honestly, but they do not etc...

Germany, place of our many future erections as we were in peak main ghibellines in region ) is also interesting example and i repeat many times, while France is interesting as philosophical subject of "how it survived and strengthened some identity", Germany in other way and that we turned from "friendship" to great animosity in XX and similar and many facts were twisted as almost all Ger rulers and our were in close coop (except Constantin "fake falconeer" Staufen)) if you get this as well... while it was great slaughter, almost cute in some way how things went in XX c and our alliance with French, in some distant way and long after end of "ancient regime" (as French say) it mirrors some medieval events indeed....

when in "Shake-spear mode" (too often if you get it)) sometimes write some scenes and either humoristical sketches or very serious, dark themed scenes so lately wrote one of our agents making some deposits to Florentine/Bolognese banker in the beginning of XIV c.... so after short dialogue of two black dressed knights and banker in night hours after bank was closed, it finishes with lines Banker(after taking bags full of silver):"...alright that's done, just to write down in books and give receipt for your king..." sound of sword pulled out of sheath is heard, and one dark knight says:"maybe you will write it better without hands"....... do you like it, have talent? :) wanted to point with scene why some things are unrecorded in history but Dante and Vinegian agents blew our cover )

very very complicated subjects, i'll give you one detail for example and that is how Miluten in his life dealt with same line from Stefan Anjou in person, all to his greatgrandson Charles of Hungary (or Charles Robert) so French subject and lines, inbreedings and conspirations are very hard to trace, so illustrative example of our one king and whole four generations since Stefan on that side etc etc. so why help is needed and "perfecting it" is almost impossible even with help.... or, since mentioned, 4 kings in Hungary in XIV c during our single Miluten, other example.... and all four from different nationalities and dynastyes - one standard, one Wittelsbach, one Bohemian and Anjou-Capet :) so be smart, Hungary was such a chaos and not surprise we were most stable kingdom during peak, uncomparable to Hungary, Bulgaria and Byzant, all in chaos during times, but France as well :) .... one dynasty and almost as many kings in 150 years as some in 10-15 years :) ....why i mention, because i think not sure, made mistake before at least once (maybe) by mentioning Louis (of Hun) as suspect for Elisabeth Habsburg death, but i mixed years of reign - it was (if i said it, unimportant to check) actually Charles of Hungary or C. Robert ;) of course.... Louis reign starts from 1342 with limited war against HIM, but Charles (so many Stefans that Louis almost sounds as rare name by French)) was the one responsible for eventual death of Habsburg princess..... etc........... and when you go into details finally regarding other regions where Capets spread, Hungary etc - Philip IV is even more hard to read figure and his acts indeed look like more "in Miluten's interest" than some French lines even, so worth speculating... so pope Boniface not only sainted Louis IX but also directly supported Charles as king of Hungary during "civil war" there, but Philip acted against him :) Saint :) ...and Sciarillo ) .... sadly that all details of our and French (so directly with Charles and Philip or just one if brothers disliked eachother) deals, Lys deals, did not survive - not only for continental issues but also in regard to Hungary as it came just few months before Charles Robert take the throne of it, so almost looks like Miluten also gave "green light" for it :) ....saying as we continued relations with main line French even after deals were "on hold", Miluten calls Clement to help etc etc..... ah, bahh, extremely difficult themes and 100% understand Dushan for turning to English and glorifying Kesar, French lines disgusted all :lol

found this in wiki few days ago:
In March 2010, a mock trial of Henry V (of England, Agincourt winner etc) for the crimes associated with the slaughter of the prisoners was held in Washington, D.C., drawing from both the historical record and Shakespeare's play. Participating as judges were Justices Samuel Alito and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The trial ranged widely over whether there was just cause for war and not simply the prisoner issue. Although an audience vote was "too close to call", Henry was unanimously found guilty by the court on the basis of "evolving standards of civil society".
so if such "serious figures" could deal with trials and revaluate events and similar, why not we as well :) ...but hypoctically ) for such "sewrious country" and "lighthouse for evolving standards of civil society" :) - must say after looking at all figures represented on relief i mentioned regading Inoken III in congress, it is bit strange that quite few were involved in crimes and various wrongdoings and very dubious if deserve place and representatives in congress daily to pass their heads :lol ...so mockery, good word.... anyway, if you have some detective "click" and know something always help me with many things i mentioned, no shame if speculatively, what happened in XIII and XIV, French above all, maybe even you know some Hungary details etc, what i miss... did you also sign treaty with Turks on Lys in mid XIV against us? :p

generally just another example of anti-Serb :) acts i.e. views of history.... both mock trial and relief ;... too many to be normalized and acceptable ) but our rulers and acts were class above and just for example compared to all great powers combined etc.... did i tell example of imperial guards and other one? :) defense of Tusculum? of Preneste? only foreign emperor ever excluded by Liciniusople? :) ....and many more

anyway, read quite few books on subjects through life, and now when we reached some conclusions together, elevated our knowledge and are nearing end to also say something BTW regarding few conclusions by educated historians regarding our ex-trio members in times... unimportant who wrote nor i'd ever remember but few lines that remained engraved in my brain were by one historio "Venice did not trust Dushan enough or blah-blah devil they don't know etc" regarding full alliance... other historian wrote, now on France "France had no interest to defend Serbia" etc. ...while maybe true for some other factions on example of Venice, such lines are disappointing from educated historians again... in moment of Dushan, talked, Venice was fighting for survival really, worst crisis period maybe in their history and was totally unable for any offensive, historian should know. So question wasn't about that, should be mentioned first before some similar lines... regarding example b) i.e. France, also every historian should know that in moment of "help needed" really from 1360-1450s France also was in one of worst crisis :) so educated historio should know and some huge engagement was out of question ; ...so almost cute turn of events.... however, line about France is to say less untrue as we concluded and we were de facto "in war" with France, so even if could France would not help :) ....but objectively speaking, if you disagree with my conclusions i believe in 100% i.e. our and French animosity in crucial times - most important conclusion is that objectively our ex-trio was totally unable to help more, even if wanted as during HIM Venice almost fell,while during our fall France fell as well :) and so on, wanted to point every historian should note whose things in books first....

IDK, really my view is, humor or not, that Frankia and Genova almost "invited" Turks directly and above all against our empire, in explained and given situation... and as events showed Turks first organizedly struck us and went to defeat our feudal lords first and only then some southern regions of Greece and Constant itself etc. so how i see, France and Genova surely played role and it was maybe in their interest, but in case of both, they also had factions.... even think maybe some small way of "redemtion" or "guilt" is that figures from both Genoese region and from France felt urged to be "little louder" or pro-us etc etc... on Napoleon, many interesting theories i presented, really to latest of his (through family maybe) some long belonging to some factions etc. so maybe he viewed Serbia, as knowing history, as someone who would "disturb some their balance and pax" and maybe again awake some Colonnas and factions ;) for example.... near the end of his life, story is launched that he also "felt guilt" :) ....while for "lion of Naples" (Napoli is not Italy)) i.e. Nabulione :) it is just my hypothetical outstretch, for med events i'm more sure..... but again both Venice to Dushan, nor France to second half of XIV (even if wanted) couldn't help, worst crisis in history for them ;) always join and revolutionarize something....

really for humor, as seen i don't care much nor for many humanitaat quasi dilemmas and similar as views are often based on incomplete picture, personal bias or some heritage and really zillion undefinable things so i will not even try, but generally you get it, nor majority of people really understand depth of some events and figures etc often distracted by some things or twisted so our HIM is nice exmple of fake line and some conquest, blurring support from some intellectuals of the era, spiritual franciscans and similar... Poles are, while never dealt in some depth and propose orgy, for us giving them "alae cursarii" :) - in some philiospohical sense interesting subject and maybe one of most geniuine Slavish nations :) genetically (we call them "Slovens" word borrowed from British Celts)) (for humor...)) and so on and have some isolationists or self-protect tone in character and in a part ditrusts to all....regarding us, probably couldn't forgive us our Teutonic veterans punching them .... :lol and similar, our Roman tie, but not "neo-Roman" enough... so in humoristic way also, of course if i made the relief it would include HIM, Andrea Dandolo, maybe some Staufen, maybe some Norman ruler, Philip and Miluten for among first practicing arrest under "red notice" of foreign ruler :) (but he had laws as well) etc etc. humoristicaly while all great law-givers with lines influencing US laws )

also humoristically while their pope John Paul was i guess OK and offered to kiss HIS sarcphagus :) there is one joke about his pntificial name for us... he combined one of papa-Jacques :lol and one of Paul who killed Stefan :) so on who crusaded us and antihero in story of name most popular and carried by all our rulers :) ....don't care about modern events and similar, but where i like to joke with him is that (unimportant) approach to historical events and also by patriarch as well, as it disregards slaughters of Latins before and similar :) (burning of Ras)) ...but unimportant, hope something for laugh... always join on something more serious and to finally solve some of XIII and XIV obscured things, but good joke as well if you see something funny in history

yeah to put this also into your treasure of (speculative) knowledge, Napoli - shh, shh ) - (Naples) is btw for mere fun fact one of Italian cities, along Rome, we do not pronounce as almost 90% of their cities, "their way"... probably more examples, but two biggest and most fun, listen.... while for Rome some pan-pronounce and something maybe not our in some old way is now accepted, some things indicate that maybe some older form for us was "Ruma" as we call Romania that way, some mountains, even small city has it etc... Naples in contrast as far as i know, we pronounce as "Napuli" (with distortion) in contrast to many others, ifaik contrast to Bulgars and of course Greeks etc etc.... so there is one interesting thing if we indeed once used both Ruma and Napuli as old important cities - it is also proposed that it might be way of speak of some other Italic populations, Etruscans and maybe old old Romans as well, at least to extent... but lets say Etruscans. And in that way interesting (along name Ras as well, absolved of unclear origin) so were our legions actually mostly made of Etruscan men :) ....how we kept some small details is mystery but this one could explain our preference for arts and culture :) generally yes, some Etruscan prnounciations, maybe even old Roman, case changes and k-g changes etc. connectable too old Italics and even kingdom era Romans.... so again Ruma and Napuli are interesting for their old status and "importance" on peninsula, while we do share "napoli-" term with others for something from there.... generally one historically very unfriendly but lovely city, kiss :) impress me with something, milady....

btw, serbo-croat is maybe only or one of very few non-romanic languages that can make whole even longish sentences with latin-italian words almost exclusively, so "ochi moje vide (veni, vici so also word from Latin) banderu, na pijacu idem voljom svojom (sui) to je meta, nesto da procedim pa serviram etc etc" :) Italics would understand this, you can make many similar examples with 90% words we share - but of course languages are not mutually understandable in general ).... as said many times, more than language it is behavior of important elements in middle ages towards us so really knowledgeable Italians and (quasi) "Roman emperors", that tells much, much more of what was our status etc.... to joke again on theme, some latin speakers (Kikero) would be surprised how many "slavic" words they used, as wiktionary puts many words as from "proto-slavic" root :) ....but yes, many words went wider from us etc.

anyway, to also add - after looking :) - that Napuli is also in "napolitan", as said wide range of languages often based on pre-Latin substratums, so "Oscan" also but almost all, including Latin, to extent based on Etruscan alphabet hence some similarities in range of Italic languages and u instead o use etc. not my field by you never miss if relate many with Etruscan.... not sure if i ever said to Italian readers but "preneste" is our for "carry something, transfer something" so not impossible that Romans after conquest named place on crossroads that way :) generally, while lovely subjects will not concentrate much on it and is more/less filed and understood subject, unless you insist on something - but generally help me more with some dilemmas on meds i have.... btw, one minus is that we lost some probable historical Serb communities in Italy in various regions really from Trieste, Veneto to central Italy and beyond, unlike others but just as we better mixed with host due to common Roman past and same pagan faith :)
