Frederick just had to upstage them, didn't he?

Yup - this was also the guy who had gold inscription in ARABIC sown onto his coronation robe. It contained a quote and the year in according to the Muslim. The court was highly shocked, but Fredrick, who spoke Arabic, didn't see the problem. I think he is probably one of my favourite historical characters.

Augustus wins for being the guy all the other emperors want to be :D

Lol! Absolutely!
