……

Therefore, it may be that the two kings of Spain bought this throne just for fun and enjoyment, and did not officially add the title of emperor to their titles.

Not only did the Spanish kings care, but neither did the Holy Roman Emperor Maximilian I.

In 1514, Maximilian exchanged letters with Ivan IV of Muscovy, recognizing each other as emperor of the Eastern and Western Roman Empires. This time Muscovy was legally recognized as the successor to the Eastern Roman Empire.

If Maximilian knew that the Spanish kings had bought the throne, this Maximilian's idea would be particularly strange. The two kings of Spain bought the throne, and seeing that Ferdinand's original lord has no two years to live, and soon the title of the Eastern Roman Empire will fall into the hands of Prince Charles, how can you turn around and pit your grandson and give up the throne of the Eastern Roman Emperor to the Duchy of Moscow?

Muscovy was not the Russian Empire at that time, and the Polish-Lithuanian United Kingdom, which was separated by a peaceful and independent town, really helped the Holy Roman Empire a lot? Do you recognize Ivan IV as the emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire and dismantle your in-laws?

If Maximilian hadn't been able to turn his head – although he had been in such a situation when he was young – it would have been that people really didn't care!

It's not that Maximilian has no heart and lungs, His Majesty the Emperor said that he was very aggrieved, and I am an old man who is about to die, I really don't see what the identity of the Eastern Roman Emperor is for! Could it be that the two kings of Spain want to go to recover Constantinople? And they didn't care about it themselves, I even forgot. Even if you think about it, this is really a meaningless title, isn't it good to use it to buy Muscovy? Hopefully, Muscovy can contain the Ottoman Empire, and Muscovy's trade with Austria can also bring a good income......

Therefore, Maximilian cannot be blamed for cheating his in-laws and grandchildren. But Ferdinand still decided to write a letter to Maximilian after the matter was completed, don't do anything with Muscovy to recognize each other, isn't it good for us to recognize each other? Spain and the Holy Roman Empire were more practical partners to work with, and although Ferdinand lacked sincerity, he was much more reliable than Muscovy.

With this section in mind, Ferdinand believed that there must be a strict procedure for the transfer of the legal doctrine of Roman orthodoxy! It is necessary to conclude a complex, complete, detailed and effective treaty! It is necessary to enable the two kings of Spain to obtain the imperial throne of the Eastern Roman Empire, the right to inherit the territory and the inheritance of the legal system of the state of the Eastern Roman Empire, to the same extent as the Second Polish Republic and the Third Polish Republic.

Some Poles believe that the Polish People's Republic is not a legitimate regime that can represent the Polish state. The upheavals in Eastern Europe first erupted in Poland, where Solidarity was organized, and when Walesa became president, the last leader of the government-in-exile of the Second Polish Republic flew to Warsaw and handed over to Walesa the Constitution of the Second Republic and the presidential scepter, which symbolized the legal unity of the Second Republic, and the functions of the government-in-exile came to an end.

……

On the other side, after two weeks of negotiations, Manuel was tortured enough! Women are so terrible! After bargaining for a long time, the current consensus is still 10,000 ducats! After Isabella's fierce slashing and unyielding negotiations, the 10,000 ducats that Ferdinand said at that time actually became the final result......

Manuel said that in his life, he was reluctant to negotiate with women, especially on money.

However, to be honest, Manuel doesn't think that the two kings of Spain are black-hearted, as Ferdinand judged, Manuel actually doesn't think that the Eastern Roman Empire throne really has any use, what "Visigothic orthodoxy" is just a means for him to sell, and he should be content to get 10,000 ducats in gold, which is equivalent to the crown! You ask Charles VIII for 10,000 ducats? Dream on!

Eventually, Ferdinand and Manuel met and gave Manuel another surprise surprise.

"The final intention is to sell 10,000 ducats?"

Ferdinand was naturally very impressed and happy in his heart, but on the surface, he still said seriously: "After consideration, I have decided to increase the price by half, and the fifteen thousand ducats are sold!" ”

"Really?" Manuel was overjoyed. I blamed myself for having no beads before! On the surface, what doesn't care about you is true ♂ love! After talking to Isabella for two weeks, he was cut off five thousand ducats and barely talked back, but he found nothing, as soon as Ferdinand opened his mouth, he added five thousand ducats at once, this is really bold!

"Of course, my promise is absolutely valid," pretending that Charles VIII had never cursed the untrustworthy and unscrupulous monarch of Aragon, Ferdinand patted his chest and said that he would give the money he had promised.

"However, a complete contract must be signed! Strict legal procedures must be carried out to legally and completely transfer the imperial power, legal system, and all the rights and interests of the Eastern Roman Empire! To be able to be more widely recognized internationally! "Ferdinand is indeed taking this matter very seriously at this time, after all, if 15,000 ducats buy an invalid throne, wouldn't he become the number one idiot in Europe?

"There is nothing wrong with this, and we will definitely ensure that all contracts and procedures are legal and valid!" Manuel hurriedly assured that this request was due, and the Eastern Roman royal family in exile really didn't want to do any tricks at this time.

"Also, I heard that the exiled royal family is very poor in Rome......" Ferdinand further threw out a large sweet date, "after the transfer of the throne, you can come to live in Castile or Aragon, and we can give you a ......"

Hearing this, Manuel almost burst into tears! Good guy, this is really good guy! What is fifteen thousand ducats? What is money? The most important thing is to ensure the worry-free life of all the royal family!

So, a month later, in the royal palace of Barcelona, Andrés Palaiologos went to Barcelona with an illness. After negotiations with Ferdinand, he also brought letters of recognition from the Archbishop of Cyprus, the Archbishop of Antioch, and the Archbishop of Alexandria, who were not yet under the Ottoman Empire at this time—Ferdinand each sent a bribe of 20,000 ducats.

As for the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople, people don't dare! The Ottoman Sultan proclaimed himself Roman Emperor, and if he knew that the Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople was engaged in such "subversive activities", he would not know what kind of destruction would have been suffered by the Orthodox Church of Asia Minor and the Greek Orthodox Church.

The functions of the exiled royal family came to an end as the exiled emperor solemnly handed over the crown and scepter, symbolizing the Eastern Roman Empire, to the Spanish kings. The royal family would settle near Zaragoza in Aragon and enjoy the rest of their lives in comfort, with Muscovy marrying a princess of the Punzhi and Ferdinand supporting the entire exiled royal family.

From this moment on, the mission of Roman orthodoxy shifted to Spain, which had not yet reached full unification.

……

……

At that moment, King Ferdinand felt that his boiling barbarian blood could no longer be suppressed, and quickly merged with Roman authority. In the depths of the soul, there was the solemn sorrow of the thousand-year-old legal system of the Eastern Empire-

"There is a desire to kill a thief, but there is no power to return to heaven, Roman orthodoxy, all ...... Never hit the streets! ”
