Urgent Questions
I am in the process of writing a ficlet and am curious about a few things; don’t think me stupid for asking them I just want to be thorough.
Assuming Merlin is set somewhere between the 7th and 10th centuries and Catholicism would be prominent in Britain, would that mean that Cardinals would have been appointed? If so, how many would there be in Britain?
How much knowledge, would say Uther have of Europe’s geography? Obviously they would be aware of Rome and Jerusalem but I am thinking mainly of France and Spain. How much trade would have occurred between countries? Would Uther ever visit Europe?
Any answers would be greatly appreciated so thank you,
Alison
