@lowqualityfacts But what *can* I post about? Oh well, guess I'll just have to make fun of Eric II of Norway (1268-1299).

But that may require some research. And learning Norwegian. That must be required here.

@lowqualityfacts Let's see, what would be most insulting to a medieval king...

"What do you call a king who can't produce a male heir? Norwegian!"

"Despite having no heir for his own kingdom, he tried to inherit the throne of Scotland from his daughter. But the Scots didn't think he made a very good queen."

That's all I've got based on the English Wikipedia article about him.

@Burn_this_ @lowqualityfacts It's so handy how you can just look up the Wikipedia article on 1299 and find what notable events, births, and deaths occurred.
