HISTORICAL ARTICLES:
Although writing about injustice in politics and the world, you may expect from mehistorical articles too:
I don”t know whether you read my article about Thomas of Lancaster,first cousin of the Medieval English king Edward II, who fought hisking for ten years [was initially on good terms with him], ending in hisexecution, but venerated as a Saint for 250 years.It was fascinating to write it, but read it as a book, for it’sextended.

And also, I wrote, exactly 700 years after it was closed, my articleabout the Treaty of Leake, a peace treaty between king Edward II and his cousin,Thomas of Lancaster, but, alas, a fake reconciliation, as it showed,,,,
