Throughout the story of the Holy Roman Empire, a wealth of fascinating tales from interesting people proliferates. Monks and emperors will clash, poets sing the praises of kings, and the pope rides blind and bareback on a frightened donkey through the streets of Rome. The mightiest monarch in all of the world walks barefoot in the snow in repentance for his angry deeds, and two rival families stand toe-to-toe for the monarchy. Crusades are lost in war and won in diplomacy, while kings are held ransom, revolts are suppressed, and antipopes crowned. And this incredible tale spanning a full millennium is ready and waiting for you to turn the next page.

    0:47 This picture is of Lothair I, who lived a century earlier. He was grandson of Charlemagne and the first and only ruler of Middle Francia, inheriting it after the Treaty of Verdun divided the Frankish Empire into West, Middle, and East Francia. It was actually Lothair's great-great grandson, Lothair II of Italy, who married Adelaide (Lothair I of Middle Francia -> Lothair II of Lotharingia -> Bertha of Lotharingia -> Hugh of Italy -> Lothair II of Italy)

    Sorry I read your comment again, you're saying that she is a descendant of them.. but how do you even know that? What aspect of hers makes her a nephelim bloodline? I'm only asking because I'm interested in the subject as well
