Alliance of England, Aragon and the Byzantines part 1
[FONT="]The marriage of Edward, Prince of Wales, was in King Edward I's mind is clear from the fact that a papal dispensation was received from Pope Nicholas IV ten days after the treaty was signed. Thought to show bad faith on Edward's part, the Papal Bull did not contract a marriage, only permit one should the Scots later agree to it. Edward I, like Eric, was now writing of Queen Margaret, anticipating her inauguration and the subsequent marriage to his son.
Edward and the Guardians continued their negotiations, based on the collective assumption that Margaret would be Queen and Edward of Wales King
Margareth of Scotland recovered from her own sickness and was able to arrive in Scotland in November 1290; she was engaged to Prince Edward of England on arrival.
Alfonso III of Aragon marries Eleanor of England, the daughter of Edward I in June 5, 1293, the marriage between Alfonso and Eleanor sealed the alliance between England and Aragon.
In December 4, 1294, Eleanor of England gave birth to a son who she named James, who is the heir of the crown of Aragon.
In 1295, Andronikos II betrothed Irene Palaiogina to James, the Prince of Aragon.
In December 4, 1300 the marriage between Prince Edward of England and Margaret of Scotland happened which will merge the two crowns and united the two rival Kingdoms of Albion, the marriage caused Scotland to be in union with England, Margaret of Scotland and Prince Edward were happily married but the Union of the crowns in Scotland and England was seen as a threat in France because it will increase their power and influence, Edward and Margaret were quite uneasy when they two first met, Edward told to Margaret that she is now his own wife and that their inheritance will be united as one realm, Margaret told Edward that she was just new to Scotland and she is not familiar on how to really govern it. Margaret told Edward that she is happy marrying him and that she is not even nervous about marrying him and she told him that she is happy that she married Edward. Edward was shocked at first on what she said, he was impressed of Margaret and told her that he is happy to take her as his own wife and that their marriage will improve the relationship of England, unite their Island and also improve the relations of England with Norway, Princess Margaret is happy to be with Edward although Edward had different thoughts and was thinking of other things, Edward I told Prince Edward to fix his own reputation as a King because the rumour about the King is bad to the Kingdom and he told Edward to focus on his own relationship with Margaret because they are husband and wife now and the future King and Queen of England and Scotland, Edward I was happy about the marriage because the two kingdoms of Albion are set to unite.
The new union of Scotland and England is allied with the Aragonese and the Eastern Roman Emperor, Andronikos II Palaiologos sent emissaries to Scotland and England.
Margaret of Scotland gave birth to a son named Edward in November 5, 1301, King Edward I gave homage to the King of France as a vassal in February 2, 1302, Philip IV and made a non-agression pact with King Philip IV of France which guaranteed England’s neutrality in future wars involving France.
Because of the marriage between Margaret and Prince Edward, Norway and England became much closer, Margaret do have a stake in the succession of Norway if no males followed her and if her uncle Haakon died childless, but her father, Erik died on 1302, she became the next in line to the Norwegian throne and in 1303, Haakon died because of a horse accident and Margaret and Edward rose to the throne of Norway and became the King and Queen of Norway and the ruler of Iceland and Greenland as well, they have both Basques and the Norse pirates in their own territory, which would make their realm a superpower in the future.
Prince Edward became distant to Queen Margaret because of his new favourite Piers Gaveston and he was rumoured to have a lover but Queen Margaret did not believe the rumours about Prince Edward and she ignored the rumours.
Even if Queen Margaret did not believe in the rumors she tried to ask Prince Edward about the rumour, Queen Margaret said to Prince Edward, is the rumour true that you have someone you love other than me, I understand that I was just betrothed to you and you might not love me when we were married I just hope that you are loyal to me even if you don’t love me or you are just taking advantage of me due to my inheritance, Prince Edward said to Margaret I love you, I can’t take another person to be my lover, I am loyal to you my Queen.
Prince Edward said this but he was not very sincere at what he was saying, because he truly preferred to be with Piers Gaveston rather than his own queen.
Queen Margaret was pregnant again and gave birth to a son in June 4, 1305, which she named Henry, Prince Edward was happy about the birth of a son.
Edward I strengthened the relationship of the English crown to Aragon in 1306 by sending emissaries to King Alfonso of Aragon and he visited the Queen of Aragon, his daughter Eleanor later that year.
In 1307, Edward I died and Prince Edward rose as Edward II, the King of England, Scotland, Norway and Duke of Aquitaine, he was crowned in London with his wife, Margaret of Norway.
