“Our Wish for the End, Me” by Clayshaper

Did you guys know that at one point four sisters of the same household were married to the kings of Sicily, Germany, England, and France? Four sisters, queens of most of Europe at the time. The eldest two daughters, especially, were influential in their husband’s courts, and brought peace between France and England among other influences. 

Perhaps the craziest part is that their parents were fairly minor nobles in comparison to their husbands, and not royalty. They WERE major sponsors of the arts, and paid money to troubadours and performers to essentially go to the courts of royalty and sing about how beautiful and talented their daughters were. And it worked!

You’ll find the four sisters on Wikipedia under these names, though different sources may cite them by slightly different names: 

Margaret of Provence (wife of King Louis IX of France)

Eleanor of Provence (wife of King Henry III of England)

Sanchia of Provence (wife of Richard of Cornwall, King of Germany)

Beatrice of Provence (wife of Charles of Anjou, aka King Charles I of Sicily)

Can you imagine the family reunions?
