Chapter 177: Shalama of the Crimea
In the end, there was no way, and a new compromise was reached. The Hohenstaufens renounced their claim to the Crimea, but demanded that Salama be allowed to travel to the heart of the HRE Empire before reaching adulthood, and then to return to the Crimean region when she reached adulthood.
Just imagine, if the heir of a territory has not returned to the territory for nearly ten years, in the absence of a strong leader and an heir, it will be difficult for the hearts of the people to gather, even if everyone wants to build this area well, there will be no backbone.
Under such circumstances, will the political groups in the territory be suspicious of each other, and finally divide up, and then give the Hohenstaufen family an opportunity to take advantage of! Then this territory that has been in operation for many years will finally fall into the hands of the Hohenstaufen family.
A big man in a carriage came, is this a rumor that represents the war can already be heard?
Who is the big man in the car?
This question is in everyone's mind.
In anticipation, Salama finally stepped out of the carriage slowly.
With snow-white skin, bright blonde hair, noble temperament, and a bewitching figure, no one thought that the person who got off the carriage would be a woman, and it was such a dazzling woman.
Everyone's eyes were captured by Shalama at this moment, and at this moment, Shalama was the brightest moon in the sky where the stars arched!
"She's ......"
"The Hohenstaufen family has changed to another woman this time, and they still don't give up on the Krimu? Could it be that after several failures, the Hohenstaufen family still refuses to give up?" said a herdsman with a horse and a few sheep behind him. He is a herdsman in the grasslands. The purpose of this visit to the city was to sell his sheep in exchange for money.
It is also relying on a stable city. Thanks to the huge demand in the city, these herders are able to survive. Exchanging money for daily necessities. Of course, in addition to the necessities of life, there are also some non-essential items.
If you change to the nomads in other regions, even if they are backed by the vast grasslands and raise flocks of lambs, not to mention the inflated prices, the layers of exploitation from time to time are unbearable!
The lords have subconsciously separated the family of Shalama from the House of Hohenstaufen, and at the same time separated themselves from the people of the House of Hohenstaufen. In their opening, their lord was a lineage of Salama. And not the titular imperial clan of the Hohenstaufen family.
"No, I don't think it's the Hohenstaufen family, now that Hohenstaufen is too busy to take care of himself, where is the energy to take care of us. The man on the side added.
"Oh! I remember! When the previous lord died, wasn't it said that a female descendant was sent to the HRE Empire? It's just that the people of Hohenstaufen definitely didn't think that they hadn't taken away our Crimea for so many years......!
At that time, this incident can be said to have caused an uproar in the Crimean region, not only among the top political officials, but also among the general public. After all, one can realize that if the Crimean region does not have a backbone. Maybe it will fall into a civil war, and then it will be a devastation.
But what I never expected was that after so many years, the high-level management of the Crimean region still maintained efficient operation. There is no sign of fighting! On the contrary, the Crimean region is becoming more prosperous day by day!
This has to be said to be a miracle, if the officials and nobles of the rest of the HRE Empire can do the same. There is not necessarily a chaotic situation of the royal power of the Hohenstaufen family falling and the rise of the nobles to annex and fight. It is not an exaggeration to say that the united HRE Imperial Kingdom is one of the strongest countries in the Roland Continent. And, of course, there was the Byzantine Empire and the Habsburgs.
"Could it be that Her Royal Highness the Princess has returned?" the herdsman's face turned red with excitement.
After ten years, the Crimean region is finally about to welcome back its lord! In this era, the Roland Continent is not like the earth, and it is full of disgust for absolute monarchy. On the contrary, everyone consciously upholds the absolute monarchy, and it is unsettling to have no monarch above him, even if the monarch is nominally only a feudal nobleman.
Just like in China in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, although the wind of democratic reform prevailed, there were still many people who supported the monarchy. Enlightenment thinkers on the eve of the French Revolution, such as Montesquieu and Voltaire, also supported the monarchy, but in favor of a constitutional monarchy rather than an absolute monarchy.
The change in the people's thinking must coincide with the development background of the times, and it is not easy to find people who agree with the democratic republic on the Roland continent, which has been imprisoned by the monarchy for thousands of years.
Whispers began to emerge from the crowd, and people were passing on the young woman's claim that she was a princess and lord of the Crimean region. Because of the Cross Church, the women on the Roland continent have a much higher social status than ancient China on the earth. After all, a significant part of the success of the early Crucifixion was due to women.
Although the overall social status is lower than that of men, but the low is extremely limited, after all, this is also determined by the social productive forces and production relations, because of the natural advantages of the body, so men are the main body of war and production, so the social status is higher, if it is placed in ancient times, the status of women in production is higher than that of men, so it is naturally a matriarchal society.
On the Roland Continent, women can also participate in political activities! So many female monarchs are not good-looking on the throne, they are as good at political intrigue as men, and the blood on the battlefield gallops!
As if to respond to the wishes of the people, the leaders of the generals and officials who stood at the city gate to greet them each walked to the carriage with a thing in their hands.
One is a golden scepter, the whole body is made of gold, the top of the scepter is a precious color full of gemstones, coupled with its excellent workmanship, it must be a work of art in the artwork, a fine Chinese god, is a priceless treasure.
The other item is an ornate accessory engraved with religious motifs and the coat of arms of the Crimean region, symbolizing that the sword is the possession of the lord of the Crimea.
"Welcome back Her Royal Highness Princess Salama of Crimea, Saramar of Hohenstaufen, and Count of Cremu!" (To be continued......)
