What happens
The royal Order of the Dragon was created by Holy Roman Emperor Sigismund and Barbara of Cilli, Holy Roman Empress and Queen of Hungary and Bohemia. This order requires its initiates - selected nobility - to defend the cross and fight the enemies of Christianity. Serving as regent when her husband was absent, Barbara also administered large feudal fiefdoms and taxes independently, and was actively involved in politics and economy. When the two of them attended the Council of Constance, many were struck by her youth, vitality and beauty.\nWith the death of her husband in 1437 Barbara has taken on the role of a dowager queen, settling down in Bohemia and retired from political life. Despite this the Imperial court still views her with some suspicion. We could certainly benefit from her experience though giving her a position of influence might strain relations with the Emperor.
