when i looked up holy rule and ferdinand i was brought to 200 AD which dealt with the seven martyrs. Maybe we are in the wrong time period again.

Not sure where you are looking, got a link?

I think most of us have been using

en.wikipedia.org...
and
en.wikipedia.org...

the question doesnt ask which ferdinand, be it I II ot III.

So if someones tried Sigismund, has anyone tried Maximilian II or Rudolph II

I found this list of European Rulers. I have no idea which Ferdinand they want though. I've tried the Ferdinand of the Holy Roman Empire.

European Rulers

Maybe it's not sigismund himself who matters. Maybe its the dynasty. Sigismund was the last of the luxemburg emperors. Ideas?

vaga I tried different forms of luxembourg earlier and such. no luck. Im still trying to figure out why Im autocapitalization lol.

is this talking about the muslims or the jews?
and who were the Moors?

also note that if you dont count emperors elect, but only those crowned by the pope, it's actually louis IV. but he didn't work either.

Um, what? Have you passed the question about holy rule?

i think i found it can someont try it my page is screwed up
this is it: Great Schism
here is te ref:
www.answers.com...

Played around with this, same time period and actually has the word 'rule'(s) in it.

It was also at this Council that a cardinal ventured to correct Sigismund’s Latin, to which Sigismund famously replied, Ego sum rex Romanus et super grammaticam ("I am the king of the Romans, and am superior to rules of grammar"). According to The Nuttall Encyclopaedia, this reply caused him to receive the nickname Super-Grammaticam.

en.wikipedia.org...
but no luck.

Hey, I might be completely wrong... But I don't think that on all the previous pages it said "On your path that is the path taken, tell me this," It just sounds a little strange... Does it perhaps have something to do with this one? (If that was written on the other pages I apologize)

No luck with

greatschism.html
or
schismofthewest.html

It's just the omnipresent question.
Basically part of the background to the game page

haha Im still playing even though I should be asleep, how terrible.

Hmm.... Maybe this has something to do with the Inquisition? Here is a site that gives reference to Ferdinand II and a law he enacted. Maybe the "rule" that is mentioned is perhaps not a ruling person but an actual rule to follow?

mb-soft.com...

I jumped right into this straight after work... what time period are we in now?

Could this have anything to do with Archduke Franz Ferdinand of Austria and his assasination? (forgive me if I'm way off... it's been a long day).

well its a HOLY rule, which preceded ferdinand by 4. now since we cant say what 4 stands for other then numeral 4, we have to look at the other parts.

a holy rule that preceded a person by a number value. now a holy rule can either be a ruler, an actual rule that may have to do with religion, oor what else? 4 centuries, 4 years, 4 houses (those of you looking toward house of luxembourg and such). What does the 4 stand for, and what is the holy rule. Is the holy rule a house or is it an actual rule?

it doesnt specify what ferdinand so if we are going with holy roman emperors, we cant go by individual basis, too fague. This is going to have a direct answer, not a guess which guy and check, and if your wrong check the next guy till you find the right one. If it doesn't tell us which ferdinand it must not be relevent.

the last answer had to do with WWI, Emperor Ferdinand's assassination is what sparked that war apparently, so possibly...........

So said I, about 12897498217392 hours ago.

when this ? first came up the first thing I looked at was the year 1556 minus 4 and a holy rule. I came up with the "Lords Supper" or " Holy Communion" they were in a Book dated 1552 and place into effect at that time. This I just throw out for all to think on.
