Expansion[edit]

I am only going to create a start article for now and not go into the details of this history since I can't access or understand most of the available French sources. Even the ones being used now are not fully utilized. For example, it is hard to understand when or if he became king after the final princess's death since we just have what Chesse said. Hopefully, a French researcher can look for better sources surrounding the exact details of the annexation period and the documents and treaties associated with the governmental transition.--KAVEBEAR (talk) 00:09, 29 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
