I looked up my last name on google and found this link... this is not what a real Seneschal actually was...

So you all know what we really were I will give you all a brief history lesson.

Phillip III was the king of France in mideval times. In 1270 AD he distributed France into different provinces and sent nobles into the provinces. The nobles he sent to the southern half of France were called Senechals (that's how I spell my form of the last name). The ones sent to the north were something starting with a B. Anyways, we were given full judicial, military, and economic power of our province. We were able to make whatever laws we wanted to, even though this form of government lasted in France for a long time in the late 1700's it began to collapse. Anyways I haven't played this game but was interested in the fact that it was put in a video game as some sort of character.

Thank you for reading!
