Ep. 63 - Recovery - Barbarossa rebuilds his reign after defeats in Italy and at home

Following the Peace of Venice and the Fall of Henry the Lion, our great emperor Barbarossa has reached the end of the road. Being a man of infinite resource and sagacity he climbs out of the hole, resets his political allegiances and recovers some of his previous standing.
