   Chapter 2251 Fierce Frenzy (11)

Saint Donatine and his younger brother Rogatien were Nantes living in the fourth century AD, when the ruler of Western Rome was Diocletian. Since Octavian established the head system, Rome has changed from a republic to a The monarchy, and Diocletian was the one who completed the last step of the monarchy. He also took away the last real power of the Senate and became a display of honor.

At the same time, he also established a system of co-governance of four emperors. He divided the empire into two parts, east and west. Each part was governed by an emperor, called "Augustus", and each Augustus made another Assistant and heir, called "Caesar".

He first gave his comrade-in-arms Maximian Caesar the title, and then named him Augustus, and became the vice emperor of the Roman Empire, ruling the western part of the empire, while Diocletian was in Solona on the Adriatic Sea. Cabbage is grown in the palace.

Diocletian's father was a slave who was later released, and since Caracalla abolished the tradition that legionnaires had to be served by citizens, Diocletian could join the army as a son of a lower class of working people, and the accumulation of military exploits eventually became The only ruler of the Roman Empire.

He was tired and chose to retire at the age of fifty-five. He was the only emperor in Rome who voluntarily gave up the throne and power. He designed the "four emperors to rule together" to solve the disputes of the empire. In his design, he and Maximi Ann abdicated at the same time, Galerius and Constantius I were both promoted from "Caesar" to "Augustus", but the Italians did not like their ruler Severus II, they elected Mark Simian's son is emperor.

  At that time there were already signs of a civil war, and the emperors had no time to manage religious affairs, and the high officials of the various provinces were in charge. The Roman Empire believed in Jupiter and Apollo, while Saint Donatine and Rogatien were preaching a religion that was nailed to the cross. Natin was caught by soldiers in front of high-ranking officials while he was preaching.

   "I see, Donatine," said the high official. "Not only are you not content to deny the fame that Jupiter and Apollo have gained, stop spreading that doctrine, or death awaits you."

  Donatine said, "Death, I'm not afraid of me, I'm afraid of you."

  The young Donatine was thrown into the dungeon and was severely tortured. Rogatien visited him in the prison every day, and persuaded his brother to give up his faith, otherwise it would attract the wrath of the emperor.

   Rogatien's persuasion did not persuade Donatine, but Donatine persuaded Rogatien, so the judge sentenced the brothers to beheaded. Rogatien didn't regret it, and what made him sad was that he was just an ordinary catechumen and had not been baptized, so Donatine asked his brother to pray with him all night, asking God to accept the baptism in blood.

   The next day, the judge wanted to use torture to change the two children’s minds. They were tied to a rack and subjected to whipping and various tortures. None of them gave in, and eventually their heads were chopped off. Later, the Normans invaded, and their bones were brought to Amiens. Saint Donatine was named Archbishop of Amiens. In the 9th century, Baldwin I, Count of Flanders, brought Saint Donatine's bones from Amiens to cloth. Rouge, enshrined in a church built specifically for him.

St. Donatin is the largest church in Bruges, and it is also the cathedral. Hundreds of lords, nobles and famous people are buried in this cathedral. When it still stands there, the main body is Gothic , but the adjacent patriarch's building is Baroque, mainly to resist the religious reform.

   Now the main body of the church has been demolished, and the dean’s building is still there. Georgiana could build a hotel in that clearing, or sell beer at a beer exchange, if she was a little more daring. Bonaparte said that she could give her a city to try. All he did was to find a market for French farmers' exports, in the interest of France, and if the Belgians were really free, they could choose the wheat from the Baltic countries. But they did not have this freedom, and the food they bought was not necessarily theirs. The French army under the command of Napoleon marched in a hurry and would not bring a lot of baggage. During the war, they could "requisition" at any time.

   She has always felt this way, being kind can't be defenseless, and not having a sword in your hand and having a sword in your hand are two different things.

  If only she were a man, but she is a woman, unless she wants to be as "tall and burly" as Figel. The common perception of female beauty is soft beauty. The sacrifice of the **** of death once said to her that a girl should look like a girl. There was a countess who insisted on wearing men's clothes, and as a result, neither men nor women liked her.

  Napoleon's system is a bit like the "tributary system", but the tribute is not a precious gift, but military expenses and soldiers, the latter is called "blood tribute", and these countries want to participate in their unrelated wars.

   But to have a "blood tribute", we must first have armed forces. At the same time, Bonaparte stabilized his regime in the process of external expansion, and consolidated his throne through victories.

   Diocletian was alive when the four monarchies could still function normally, and when he died, without even having to wait for him to die, problems began to appear after he retired, and his past exploits were forgotten.

   Romans, don't forget to rule the nations with authority.

  But Diocletian was old at that time, and the army and the Senate had their own plans when electing a new Caesar. Eventually, civil war broke out, the empire was divided again, and this time it was never restored.

   The persecution of Christians by Diocletian and Maximian made them even more famous until Constantine I issued the Edict of Milan.

   If only that Inquisition prison was actually made by the Austrians, the French could hype it up.

Spain and France are currently allies, until the United Kingdom established the status of maritime hegemony through the Battle of Trafalgar, and Spain gave up its fight for sea dominance and instead competed with France for land supremacy. She estimated that these castles, and the stories that happened in them, would be It was covered up in the past. As for whether they were obedient or not, it was not something she could manage as a woman if they didn't use those stones to build a fortress.

There were two such fortresses along the Sacred Blood River. The site was also carefully designed at that time. It happened to be located at the three fork road. When the fire broke out, not a single person inside escaped out, and what was even weirder was that the corpses disappeared, as if they were all burned to ashes.

As for the cross necklace, it is made of platinum with a place left on it, which may be used for inlaying gemstones. Before the church was overthrown, many of the French royal jewelry were religious themes. In San Luca, Spain, there used to be A carpenter carved a statue of the Virgin Mary, and the magistrate of the Inquisition asked the carpenter to sell it to him at a low price, but the carpenter did not want to, and then the carpenter was burned to death in the name of vilifying the image of the Virgin.

  If Maria's sculpture is not beautiful, who would buy it and put it at home?

   In such an environment, Michelangelo actually insisted on "nudity" in the Holy See, which was his obsession with art.

   In order to draw a more accurate human body, Da Vinci also dissected the corpse, which is also not allowed.

Georgiana still remembers the "Anatomy Theater" she saw at the University of Padua. At that time, the medical students all said what the teacher said on the stage, and they followed the script. The teacher said that the liver only has two lobes, and they also remembered it. No real liver at all.

  As the number of autopsy corpses increased, some people found that the situation was not what the teacher and books said.

  Everyone said the Salem incident was caused by ergot bacteria, and she believed it for a while.

  Murder because of mental illness, and intentional murder disguised as mental illness are not the same concept, like the Yale student who assassinated the president. In order to please women, men will do some silly things, such as bullfighting in Spain, and duels, which once killed more than 300 French noble youths every year.

   That's not bravery, luckily that student didn't actually kill the president, and he also has a rich father, others aren't as lucky as him.

  Georgianna would rather leave the prime area of ​​the church vacant than build a house on it, let alone a pub. Time will not heal, but it can make people forget, and when it is almost forgotten, then use that land.

   That could take generations, so for now she has to choose another place.

  Healing may leave scars, but it's better than putting salt on the wound.

   There are many cavalrymen in the manor, which is also the station of the French army. Listening to their movements back and forth reminded her of the scene that she did not know whether it was a dream or an illusion. He was in the barracks with Josephine, and Josephine was at the dance, but he went back to his room and sat on the chair by the fire, taking off his boots and looking very relaxed.

   At that time, there was a spice smell, which was used to cover the smell of feet, and a delicious food was ruined by him.

   She will not allow the same thing to happen.

   At that time, the Amiens contract had not been signed, and all she thought about was "peace", and she even begged him a little for this idea.

   "Stupid," she muttered, even a little embarrassed in retrospect.

   At this time, she saw the letter written by Bertin, and she wanted to understand why she made a horsehair helmet for Yu Lian as a gift of peace.

   She had to write the contents of the Iliad on the back of the letter.

   That's why she loves the Odyssey, and cabbage-growing retirement isn't bad, if she can convince someone to retire.
