Miller Number 2007Apw10
Deadline/Fall 1054 5/19 Tuesday
Byzantium and the Holy Roman Empire pull off some fancy financial footwork to avoid defaulting on the moneylenders. Pisa loses Genoa despite the help of the Pope, and the Normans resume their eastward movement.
Expenditures
Byzantines receive 8 ducats from the Holy Roman Empire, and pay off their loan. They then take out a loan of 10 ducats for 2 years (15 ducats due Summer 1056), and give the 10 ducats to the Holy Roman Empire.
The Holy Roman Empire pays off their loan.
Pisa pays 6 ducats back to the moneylenders.
Outstanding Loans
Spring 1056: 17 ducats due from the Holy Roman Empire (11 borrowed)
Summer 1056: 15 ducats due from the Byzantines (10 borrowed)
