Morris. Welf's first target was not his father's Duchy of Lombardy, but on the eastern side of Lombardy, which was founded by his uncle Guelph. Duchy of Verona ruled by Welf.

In terms of kinship, Morris. Welf and his uncle Guelph. Welf is even closer, as he is a member of the Welf family, recognized by his uncle, and is the heir to his uncle's Welf family domain.

However, the situation of the Welf family is not optimistic, and now there are only two members left in this once glorious family, one of whom is his uncle, the Duke of Verona, Guelph. Welf, the other is himself.

Now that the Welf family has fallen to this point, the family is withered, and the only territory of the family is the Duchy of Verona, but Maurice still has not forgotten the once powerful and glorious history of the Welf family.

According to family tradition, the ancestors of these Welf families can be traced back to Prince Adicon (469 AD), a close friend of Attila, king of the Huns, and his son Odoasé, king of Italy in 476.

However, the early ancestors may have been the Frankish nobleman Rusdal (before 790 AD), the Count of Sudegaard, Hadrad, and the Carolingian King of Alemannia, Pepin, among others, with the oldest documented members being

The Welf family had a close relationship with the Carolingian dynasty, and the family had two Carolingian queens, one of whom was Judith. Welf was married to Louis I, the pious King of France. Carolingian (778.1.1 – 840.6.20), and his sister Homer Welf was married to King Ludwig Carolingian of the Germanic kingdom (806.1.1 – 876.1.29).

Among them King Louis I of France and Judith. The son of Welf was the historical Carolingian lord of the Carolingian dynasty, Charles the Bald, King of France, and King Lothair I of Lorraine. Carolingian, King Pepin of Aquitaine. Caroling, Germanic king Ludwig. Caroling.

The ambitious King of France, Charles the Bald, defeated several of his brothers and became the second emperor to go down in history after Charlemagne.

Here we note that Judith's sister Homer married the half-brother of her own son, Charlie the Bald, Ludwig. Carolingian, how many stories there are is is unknown.

Homer. Welf and the Germanic king Ludwig. The three sons born to Carolingian also became three kings, namely King Carroman of Italy. Caroling, King Ludwig of Lorraine. Carolingian and Germanic king Karl 'Fat' Caroling.

As a group of Carolingian queens, the Welf family can be described as a group of honorable men, as the younger brother of the two queens and a relative of the Carolingian dynasty, Conrad, Earl of Schwyz. Welf had three sons and two daughters.

Among them, his favored Conrad II inherited most of his fiefdoms and was canonized Duke of Hautsburgundy by the Germanic king Ludwig, his second son Hugo inherited his fiefdom in France and was canonized Duke of Anjou by Charles the Bald, while his eldest son Guelph, who disliked him, inherited his fiefdom in the Duchy of Swabia and became the Counts of Uhheim and Breisgau.

As for his two daughters, the second of them remained celibate, the eldest daughter married Robert the Strong, Duke of Anjou of the Capetian family, and gave birth to two sons, Ode. Capet and Robert. Capet became the king of the Kingdom of France, laying a solid foundation for the establishment of the Capetian dynasty.

Of the three branches handed down by the Count of Conrad, the second son, Hugo, died without an heir, and the third son, Conrad II, succeeded his father as Count of Paris and restored his grandfather's estate in the province of Burgundy as Duke of Hautes-Burgundy.

He left behind an only son, Rudolph. Welf inherited his Duchy of Upper Burgundy.

In 888 A.D., Rudolf-Werf succeeded his cousin the Germanic king Karl 'Fat' Carolingian from the royal crown of the Kingdom of Burgundy. Morris. Lun. The abbey of Valais was crowned King of Burgundy, and in the general diet of the German Empire, he was finally recognized by the countries for his independent status.

His son Rudolph II succeeded the newly formed state, which included the French or western regions of Switzerland, Upper Burgundy, Geneva, Savoy, Dauphin, Provence, and the country between the Rhine and the Alps, known as the Kingdom of Burgundy.

Rudolfo II made two attempts to conquer Italy, but in the end he succeeded, taking the crown of the Kingdom of Italy, where he ruled for three years.

His son and successor, Conrad III, reigned for 56 years, from 937 to 993, enjoying the friendship and support of the Saxon emperors of the Holy Roman Empire.

Holy Roman Emperor Otto I married his sister Adelaide, the mother of Otto II and the grandmother of Otto III.

During the reign of Conrad III, the Kingdom of Burgundy was succeeded by his son Rudolph III, and when Rudolph III died childless in 1032, the branch became extinct in the ranks of the males.

King Rudolf III of Burgundy, the last member of the Welf family of the Burgundian dynasty, died in 1032 and his throne of the Kingdom of Burgundy was given to his nephew, Conrad. Salian, who was then elected Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire in 1024, was known as Conrad I of the House of Salian.

Of course, Morris. Welf did not belong to this branch of the Kingdom of Burgundy, but to the eldest son, the Count of Guelph, whom his ancestor Count Conrad disliked.

For hundreds of years, they were all Earls of Schwyz, holding on to the territory passed down from their ancestors. Welf's uncle, Guelph. Welf was made Duke of Verona by his relative, the current Holy Roman Emperor Henry III, and it has only been a few years now.

The once glorious Welf family has now withered away, losing the crown of the Kingdom of Burgundy and the crown of the Kingdom of Italy, and the only male member of the family is his uncle, Duke of Verona, Guelph. Welf and Maurice, who bears the name of 'bastard'. Welf.

Despite the fact that he was an uncle of Guelph. Welf's only relative, but the delicious-looking Duchy of Verona was not something Maurice could inherit as an illegitimate child.

If Guelph. If Welf had died without an heir, the Duchy of Verona would have been recovered by the Holy Roman Emperor Henry III, but the vassals who had been canonized to him would have no share in it.

Of course, as a member of the Welf family, he was able to inherit from his uncle his ancestral domain, a small barony, but that wasn't what he wanted.

In order to get the Duchy of Verona and the Duchy of Burgundy to which he deserved, Maurice. Welf must be strengthened and gain more prestige and support to help him seize the two principalities.
