Catherine de Medici, the Renaissance Queen of France, is having to work a delicate political situation. With peace precarious, she makes a strategic move to maintain stability by permitting the Bourbons to pursue their trade agreement with England. Simultaneously, she halts any inquiries into the Duke of Guise’s potential involvement in the arson, seeking to prevent further conflict.
As an orphaned teenager, Catherine was married into the 16th-century French court, facing challenges due to her immigrant status and the unpaid dowry. Despite these obstacles, she successfully preserved her marriage and ruled France for half a century.
