I am relatively new to Wikipedia and thus can be counted on to make some mistakes in the near future. Thus I appreciate constructive feedback.
In real life I am a graduate student studying city and regional planning in Atlanta, Georgia, USA.
The real Jeanne d'Albret (1528-1572) was a queen of Navarre and the mother of Henry IV of France, one of the best monarchs France ever had. Although Jeanne d'Albret would not have approved of the Edict of Nantes (or of me, since I'm actually Jewish), by many accounts Henry's father, Antoine de Bourbon, was no one to write home about, and thus it is a reasonable guess that Henry's mother would have been someone fairly formidable.
