It is the early 1580s, and the rebellious northern provinces of the Low Countries fight for independence against Habsburg Spain. The realities of the war do not allow Jonkheer Hugo van Harlo, to peacefully remain only a dutiful member of the local Overijssel gentry. Instead, he has taken to authoring political tracts and raised a vendel of infantry in service to the nascent Dutch republic, of which he serves as its hopman.
Interests: Late Sixteenth Century Dutch History, Cartography, & Print Culture
I am primarily a history buff, researching the Dutch Revolt, early Dutch Republic, and the gentry of the eastern Low Countries & lower Rhineland border.

I'm also interested in the golden age of cartography and the burgeoning print culture of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries - two areas that have inspired my A&S competition entries thus far.

It was another move - this time to Kansas City in 2015 - that lead to my return... and the jumping in with both feet that's happened since then.
