Jan. 7th, 2015 10:53 pmDied on this day in 1285 aged 57 King Charles I of Naples(my toy,wikipedia). Charles was the son of the King of France and the great-grandson of Henry II. Being a younger son he wasn't going to get to be King of France, he went off and invaded a bunch of places including going on two crusades and conquering Sicily (he was King of *Naples* because apparently Naples was part of Sicily and he got chucked out of the other part, I'm not sure I understand this very clearly)
Born on this day in 1796 to King George IV of UK and Caroline of Brunswick Princess Charlotte of Wales(my toy,wikipedia). Princess Charlotte would have been Queen but alas died in childbirth before she got the chance (childbirth was frequently fatal before modern medicine was widely available - I expect no expense was spared to attend to the health of the King of the UK's only child, but it didn't help).
