Empress Matilda MBTI性格类型
背景
Daughter of Henry I and his chosen heir - Known as Empress Matilda from a previous marriage to Holy Roman Emperor Henry V, she is sometimes called the Empress Maud or Maude, since at the time Maud and Matilda were considered the same name. She was an unpopular choice for ruler not only because of her sex, but because her current husband Geoffrey of Anjou was from a powerful French house who were the traditional enemies and rivals of the Dukes of Normandy. Was aided in her fight by her half brother (and past claimant), the illegitimate Robert, Earl of Gloucester, the eldest of Henry's bastards and a powerful captain and nobleman. Such was his importance to her fight that after her forces captured Stephen she later had to trade her rival back in return for Robert when he too was captured. Ultimately Matilda's quest to establish herself as the first ruling queen of England ended in failure, but she had the last laugh in the long run: her son, Henry Curtmantle, was made heir in 1153.
