Oh, wow.

Uh, twice R- Ryle tries to appo- get Moule appointed to the what is now Archbishopric of Sydney.

Yeah.

Um...

So too would this be a serious attempt to expand a Catholic ecclesiastical jurisdiction.

An attempt would be made to extend the authority of the Archbishopric of Kolotza, one of the two primary church powers in Hungary, south over Raska in 1203, and to cement this by crowning Dvukon in that land.

However, the Prince Stefan had not been idle.

He too had been courting allies.

The descendants of Vukan and George would come to be common Jupans in future years, folding into the greater mass of the Serbian aristocracy.

Besides unifying the patrimony once more, this conquest was significant for quite a few other reasons as well.

The coastal lands had always been the apex of Catholic influence within the Balkans, represented within Roshka now by the Archbishopric of Bar and by the Venetians.

The nominal Venetian subject of George was able to be incorporated, likely because of Stefan's marriage with Dandolo's daughter, and his own favorable influence with traitors in Dubrovnik.

It produced no statute and was consequently known in history as the Addled Parliament.

To follow Fenelon into what the world might term retirement, and deem synonymous with disgrace, is to follow him into the field of his most sacred duties and the scene of his purest happiness.

When he acquiesced in his nomination to the Archbishopric of Cambray, it was on the express condition that he should be allowed to reside nine months out of twelve in his diocese.

The permission, therefore, to remain there constantly, however ungracious the form in which it might be conveyed, was not in itself likely to be unpleasing to him.

How much more fortunate would have been our lot, he had said to Bossuet in one of his replies to his venerable and powerful antagonist, if instead of thus consuming our time in interminable disputes, we had been employed in our diocese, in teaching the catechism and instructing the villager to fear God and bless His holy name.

And Thomas, well, Thomas had deep roots with Canterbury's main rival on that front, York.

And as he had been brought up and educated there, he was likely well-versed in all of the Archbishopric's defenses against Canterbury's claim of primacy.

Though, as any good lawyer can tell you, you don't rely on your memory when you're prepping for a case.

You also do your research.
