Chapter 1074: The Rome Convention and the Coronation of the Emperor

After the envoys of major powers such as France arrived, Maximilian I asked whether the Pope would help him crown two thrones, one for the Holy Roman Empire and one for Byzantine Empire.

This is so because the last Byzantine emperor, Andrés Paliogallos, has left the Orthodox Church and converted to Catholicism. According to the rules, the emperor of a Catholic country should be crowned by the Pope. This is because the transfer of the throne made by Maximilian I and Andrés Pariogalos was not widely recognized by European countries. Although the Holy See verbally supported it at the time, it did not hold a coronation ceremony for Maximilian I. Therefore, countries do not recognize the throne bought for money. Therefore, Maximilian I hopes that Julius II will help him to be crowned twice, so that he can wear two crowns at once.

But when the messengers of France and other countries became aware, they expressed strong objections. France and other countries believe that, according to the tradition of the Holy Roman Empire, Maximilian I was crowned as Emperor Shinra. However, the crowning of the Byzantine emperor is a big problem. Because Constantinople, the Byzantine capital, is in the hands of pagans, and the coronation of the Byzantine emperor is a joke. If Maximilian I really wanted to be crowned Emperor of Byzantium, he should send troops to capture Constantinople and be crowned in Constantinople.

In addition to the strong opposition from France, the envoys of the Grand Duchy of Moscow also expressed strong opposition. The representative of the Grand Duchy of Moscow believes that if Andrés Paliogalos has no children, even if he abdicates, the throne should also fall on the head of his sister, Princess Sofia, Princess Duke Vasily III. Moreover, Vasily the Third was an Orthodox monarch, and the Byzantine monarchs were always Orthodox and never had Catholics. The bishops of the Orthodox Church have always supported Vasily III as the new emperor of the Eastern Roman Empire ...

However, here is Rome, the home base of Catholicism. Everyone scoffed at this statement of Mao Zi. After all, Maozi is not the European roller afterwards. Right now, Mao Zi is only a grand duchy. It was even beaten by Poland and Lithuania. Where is the right to speak?

In the end, the monarchs and envoys of all European countries unanimously decided that they recognized Maximilian I as the king of Greece. But if you want to become a Byzantine emperor, you must capture Constantinople and be crowned in Constantinople. Otherwise, everyone will not admit ...

...

Marin sighed, but also understood the ideas of various countries. Maximilian I is about to be crowned the only emperor in Europe, and he wants to be crowned the second emperor. Isn't this a crime against the public?

Everyone can't get a throne, so why bother at once, it will definitely make people jealous and die!

Of course, France and other countries are very lack of virtue, and they did not finally deny the transaction between Maximilian I and Andres Paliogalos, and recognized Maximilian I as the king of Greece.

why? This is not for the sake of Maximilian I, but for pitting him. Who is currently in Greece? Turkish hands!

And Turkey currently has the strength to crush any country in Europe. After all, others can pull out tens of thousands of cavalry. If you really want to mobilize, hundreds of thousands of troops are also possible. The Turks occupied Constantinople and Greece, and Maximilian I, the Greek king, was meaningless.

If a general prince like Marin, everyone may refuse to admit that he won a throne. But for Maximilian I, who is about to be crowned emperor, a short position does not make much sense. After all, they have a better throne.

And everyone unanimously stated that Maximilian I was to be crowned emperor there after capturing Constantinople. In fact, he encouraged the Habsburg family to attack Turkey.

Is Turkey annoying? Very bad. So everyone is in Pit Maximilian I. Of course, Maximilian I was also an old fox and would not be fooled. However, the Greek king can be hereditary. Maybe his son and grandson will be fooled? If it is beaten by Turkey, countries such as France will have the opportunity to cut meat from the Habsburg family ...

...

Looking at the enigmatic and smiling envoys of various countries, Marin's eyes flashed ...

"Coronation in Constantinople? If I get the king of Greece and send troops to capture Constantinople ..." Marin also got up in YY ...

With the throne in the hands of Maximilian I, Marin is not a good idea. After all, Maximilian I was an old fox, even though he was kind. But when Maximilian I died, Philip or Charlie came to power. Why campaign for Emperor Shinra, you have to seek support. At that time, it may be possible to change the Greek throne. Then, find a way to seize Constantinople. Anyway, the envoys of various countries stated that anyone who could capture Constantinople and be crowned there would admit that ... Marin did not dare to say that he had abused Turkey, but attacked and captured Constantinople secretly and kept it. It can still be done for a while. At that time, after the hastily crowned Constantinople, it was announced that it would be crowned in the future ... Hehe ...

So, with Marin's encouragement, Maximilian I signed a convention with the envoys of various countries-the "Roman Convention" ...

The Convention stipulates that the Byzantine Empire has converted to Catholicism, which is considered a Catholic country, and Moscow's so-called declaration is invalid (this point, Catholic countries are still united).

If you want to become a Byzantine emperor, you must send troops to occupy Constantinople and be crowned at the Saint Sophia Cathedral in Constantinople, crowned by the Greek King, and crowned by the Pope himself, or by the Pope Send a cardinal to the Hagia Sophia to crown it ...

Only when the above requirements are met will everyone recognize the identity of the Emperor of Eastern Rome. Otherwise, it can only be called the king of Greece ...

...

Seeing this convention fall into writing, Marin chuckled. Long-term occupation of Constantinople may be difficult, but Marin still has confidence in occupying Constantinople for a while. With this black-and-white convention, I will not be afraid of all countries going to pay the bills in the future. Anyway, the convention does not mention the need to permanently occupy Constantinople ... and, it does not mention that after officially becoming the emperor of East Rome, it is not allowed to change places to be crowned ...

Playing word games, Marin can throw away eight people from this era ...

...

After signing the Rome Convention, everyone can finally sit down calmly and watch the coronation ceremony of Maximilian I.

The scene of the coronation ceremony is self-evident. After all, this is currently the only emperor in Europe. After wearing the crown, Maximilian I was full of energy and exuded the spirit of the king ...

As a courtier, Marin naturally went forward to salute and congratulate, and swear allegiance ... Allegiance. Even monarchs of other countries need to bend down to salute to show respect ...

Therefore, in addition to the German princes who had a good relationship with the emperor, other princes, including foreign monarchs, sent officials to congratulate them. Those diplomats are not as good as the monarch anyway, and it is not a big deal for them to salute Maximilian I. If you let Louis XII, the king of France, pay a tribute to Maximilian I, it would be depressing to die. Therefore, France simply sent an adjutant of the foreign minister to come to ~ www.wuxiaspot.com ~ This goods is just a baron, let him salute Maximilian I, not a loss ...

...

After the coronation ceremony of Maximilian I, Julius II also issued a special edict, announcing the commendation to help him overcome the hero Marin of Siena, which was named "the Holy Spirit Warrior" Carved a statue and stood on the side of the Temple Square in Latran to show recognition ...

This reward really caused a sensation. After all, the title "Warrior of the Holy Spirit" has never appeared before. Therefore, everyone whispered and discussed. Moreover, standing on the edge of the Temple Square in Lateran is a very high honor. Generally speaking, those who can stand on the Holy Land Square like the Temple of Latran are all gangsters who have been called "saints" and are qualified as patron saints of a country. For example, St. George in England.

Although Marin was not enshrined as a saint, the statue in the center of the Holy See is also highly honored, which caused a lot of jealousy. In the process of whispering, Julius II sent a priest who read the edict deliberately lowered his voice and read out the right to authorize Marin to "conquer the barren continent and spread the" glory of Christ "". Sure enough, because everyone was attracted by the previous content, and the newly crowned emperor Maximilian I was the shining protagonist, no one noticed the last sentence ...
