The language is as beautiful as a poem. The brief histories of different authors and different European countries actually describe different characters of the works. It is really wonderful. The disadvantage is that some places are too ambiguous. If you don't understand the background of the times, you may be confused. The annotations are a good thing.
There is no doubt that France is a sea of romantic cities. There are many romantic legends and so on in it, which makes people yearn for it. The more people get married or are the first choice of fate, it will be great. But such a romantic France is actually also a big overlord.
So don't think that someone is very romantic on the outside and think that they are weak. In fact, they are also overlords. Therefore, they have a romantic atmosphere and they are also a great overlord. This country is still very good. After all, there are not many such environments that are both romantic and overlords.
So everyone has experienced some things. After all, we don't know what happened, which can make a country have romance and overlord at the same time. Being romantic and being dominant is something that can be done. You have the strength and you can do some very romantic things. This is very beautiful.
