| The Coronation |
During the 1300s the King was unhappy with his son, Dom Pedro, and Inês's affair, so he had Inês executed.
But when Dom Pedro was later crowned King of Portugal, he claimed he had wedded Inês before her death, and that she was the lawful queen.
According to legend he exhumed her body, put her on the throne, and forced the entire court to swear their allegiance by kissing her hand. Apparently people did. I think I would have just moved away from Portugal.

Kissing an *exhumed* corpse?
Give me the shivers.
So he put the dead corpse on the throne as the leader? Thats pretty messed up lol
I hope this historical event doesn't repeat itself x.x
I guess he loved her still?
Hehe, at least he's using (Armour) protection. ;)
Yuck.. he's crazy. I would've definitely left the country too lol
Holy shit. Thanks for sharing this.
