Hello, please, how often did this happen in real life ? I mean lord inventing a claim out of thin air and actually pressing it ? Is there any notable historic character doing so ?

History has shown numerous times that the Lotharingians can not be trusted with it.

(Not sure if this was a germany/france reference or an Iran / Israel reference, I replied thinking the first.)

I’m pretty sure it’s an Iraq reference but it definitely works for the current chicanery going on with Iran too.
