let's play 6 degrees of separation:
pope alexander VI's son (yeah, lol) cesare borgia knows da vinci who knows... all these famous art guys (and borgia also knew caterina szforza), da vinci supposedly based his depictions of jesus on borgia, borgia also knows machiavelli who writes the prince (based off borgia's ruthless rule) and dedicates it to lorenzo de medici, who is the father of catherine de medici who was the mother of king henry III of france (and whose brother, francis II married mary queen of scots, daughter of mary of guise who was sister to francis, duke of guise, who fought against the holy roman emperor charles V who was husband to isabella of portugal who was granddaughter to isabella I of castile and ferdinand II of aragon, who happened to finance a little trip by columbus.. who, you know, did his thing) who courted queen elizabeth I of england, daughter of henry the VIII, and who reign brought a "golden age", under which poets like shakespeare flourished, and who arranged the succession of the stuart dynasty to the throne through james I of england whose daughter married philippe I, duke of orleans who was son of louis XIII of france and whose descendant, louis xvi was lucky enough to witness the french revolution along with his wife, marie antoinette. and and and.............. the list goes on. so we got jesus, the americas, two of history's greatest artists.. what else?
