Frederick II is also known as Frederick I of Sicily (understandable, seeing he was in fact the first Frederick of Sicily). ρ¡ρρµ δ→θ∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 02:05, 11 July 2006 (UTC)
- Re the Aragonese kings of Sicily, I wonder how we can make a distinction bewteen the the first two Aragonese kings, and then the period 1296 to Mary's death in 1402 when the kingdom was fairly independent, and from Frederick III (II) up to Mary, they were really as much Sicilian as they were Aragonese. Mary's marriage to Martin I (and her momentary loss of rule when she ascended the throne at a young age) effectively brought Sicily back under direct Aragonese rule, and from there Sicily ceases to have its own monarchs altogether. I know it is convenient to refer to the whole period as Aragonese, but those 120 years following the vespers are a bit more complicated than that. πίππύ δ'Ω∑ - (waarom? jus'b'coz!) 02:24, 3 August 2006 (UTC)
