Currently Charles' birthplace is listed as Ghent, yet historical analysis shows that he was actually born in Eeklo (Belgium), not far from Ghent. There were a lot of factors involved, but it was hinted that one of the reasons was the location. Ghent was still at the outer parts of the german empire at the time, Eeklo was not. I've been looking into the subject and trying to gather information, but it is hard to find any english sources, but here here you can find a paper from the Ghent University in dutch. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.0.108.250 (talk) 07:17, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Titles?
"Charles, by the grace of God, Holy Roman Emperor, forever August"
Really? I never saw the "Holy" part in any other context than for the empire, never the emperor. They would always call themselves "emperor of the Romans".MacX85 (talk) 19:38, 27 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Referring to people by titles they did not have at the time
It is very confusing if the article refers to people by ranks and titles they did not hold at the time.
Mary Tudor, Queen of France was not Queen of France when she was betrothed to Charles at the age of 11 in 1507.
Thomas Wolsey was not a Cardinal when the engagement of Mary Tudor and Charles was called off in 1513.
Mary I of England was not Queen of England when she was betrothed to Charles at the age of 6 in 1521.
The most important work Charles V made in Spain was the construction of the state, which came to last for centuries. Most of the State was taken from the Crown of Castile (not the Kingdom of Castile); but Charles also added some details he brought from Flanders to Spain.-80.28.231.217 (talk) 19:10, 10 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
