On this day of the European Elections (in the Netherlands and the UK) it is interesting how very European it was 800 years ago:
Henri VII de Luxembourg 1275-1313
- Count of Luxembourg and Arlon
- German King
- King of Italy
- Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire
Spouse: Margaretha of Brabant (today's Belgium)
Children:
