Have you ever heard of Mazarin, a true political genius and successor of Richelieu?


I once wrote a short essay on Mazarin for an AP history class - here it is:
"Jules Mazarin was a French statesman and cardinal who served as the chief minister to King Louis XIV of France from 1643 to 1661. He was born in Italy in 1602 and studied at the Jesuit College of Rome before entering the diplomatic service of the papacy. In 1634, he became a cardinal and was sent to France as the papal legate. In 1643, he was appointed the chief minister of France by King Louis XIV and played a key role in shaping the foreign and domestic policies of the country during his tenure. Mazarin was a skilled diplomat and played a key role in the negotiations that ended the Thirty Years' War and the Franco-Spanish War. He also helped to establish France as the dominant European power of the time. Mazarin died in 1661, and his legacy as a statesman and diplomat has been widely recognized.
@Jamie05rhs I don't have an archaic computer, and Wordpad just writes a simple text file.
@Jamie05rhs I don't HAVE an 18-year-old computer. Why is this of any importance to you?
@Jamie05rhs I wrote it.
@Jamie05rhs On paper initially - I first typed it on a typewriter if I recall correctly. I've had quite enough of this. If you have any pertinent questions relating to content, ask them. if not, we are done.
Nope just Richelieu because of the three musketeers.
