Their wedding opened a new chapter in Polish history, but Bonnasse Forza was never the favorite queen of her subjects.
Bonasse Forza was born in Vijevano on February 2, 494/KLOC-0.
During her growing up, she was surrounded by great world explorers, the danger of the Ottoman Empire and the beauty of the Italian Renaissance.
She is ambitious, well-educated and attractive.
Her energy and passion for life made her one of the most important queens in Europe at that time, but now she seems to be forgotten. She is the daughter of Gian Galazzo sforza, the lawful heir of the Principality of Milan, and his wife Isabella in Naples.
Her childhood took place in Milan and Bari, where Isabella and her four children lived from 1502.
The beautiful Norman Northvivo Castle is the place where 8-year-old Bona started her education, which makes her one of the most interesting young ladies in Europe.
Her teachers are the famous Italian humanists Antonio de ferraris and Christo Corona.
She studied mathematics, history, classical literature, Latin, law, theology, geography and natural science, and learned how to play several musical instruments, Gian Galeazzo Sforza, about 1483, Giovanni Ambrogio de Predis.
When Bona was 24 years old, she left her country and became the second wife of Polish King and Lithuanian Grand Duke Sigmund I.
She started a long journey from Krakow and came to a country with a cold climate and a completely different mentality.
If Poles think that this beautiful young lady will be content to be the mother of the king's children and stay away from politics, they are completely wrong.
Bona became politically active from the moment she became queen.
She doesn't understand the social norms in Poland, which is far less civilized than Italy, France or Spain.
Poland's political stance is firm, but the society still needs to be improved. Her first few months in Poland were very difficult for Bona.
Italian princesses are used to eating fresh fruits, vegetables and olive oil, but in Poland, they eat a lot of meat, which makes her sick.
Polish food is mainly meat, beans and some spicy food.
A few months later, she began to grow her own vegetables in the garden near Wavell Castle. At first, Polish nobles didn't know Bona's diet, but as time went on, vegetables became more and more popular among Poles.
Nowadays, a bunch of basic vegetables including celery, carrots, parsley and leeks are called "W? oszczyzna”(w？ Ozzie), Queen Bona Garden in Warville Castle. (CC 2.5) After sigismund died in 1548, Bona became a very important figure in the court of her son sigismund II Auguste.
He was the last king of the Jagelong dynasty, which disappointed his mother.
He didn't have the impressive skills of his father, which made sigismund and I a great success as rulers. Bonnasse and Forza have six children.
Her three daughters Isabella, Catherine and Anna became influential queens in Hungary, Sweden and Poland.
They are ready to rule with their husbands and become very important in European political life.
August is her only son who can live to be an adult. He is a romantic. He cares more about his marriage and art than a serious king.

Bona is very active in foreign policy.
She opposed the Habsburg family and supported the actions of the Ottoman Empire.
Her correspondence with Suleiman I's lawful wife Hurem Sultan has been lost, but some details are still known.
It is believed that the good relationship between Bona sforza and Jerem Sultan saved Poland from the attack of the Ottoman army.
Jerem is a Polish woman who cares about the family of the Polish king.
Over the years, she gave gifts to Sigmund and his son, such as linen underwear and other clothes. The Latin oil painting created by Sudan in the 20th century is called Rosa Solimani Vekso.
Bona, like many important women of her time, was accused by some people as a witch.
Many bishops and nobles are obsessed with fighting witchcraft.
When Bona began to reform the country and made herself the richest landlord, criticism of her behavior increased.
Poles never liked these changes, but Bona supported the progress of many ideas.
Besides protecting scientists and artists, she also tried to influence the law.
After her husband's death, Bona moved to Viatte, Maryland, and established orchards and modern farms.
She has many plans, but most of the reforms she initiated will continue to fail because of lack of support for her actions.
Eight years after sigismund's death, Bona decided to return to Bari and Simon Bubinder stepped aside.
As we all know, Bona sforza is a typical Italian beauty, but many paintings depicting her are usually made by her enemies, so she is often portrayed as a fat and unattractive woman.
Many Poles want her to be remembered as the villain in the story of the last two kings of the Akron dynasty.
Nevertheless, the queen's achievements are so great that people can't forget her positive points.
155 1 year, Bona sforza was a widow.
Bona has been unhappy in Poland. When she grows up, she wants to reunite with her relatives.
She returned to Italy, hoping to enjoy her favorite art, food and sunshine there.
Unfortunately, just one year later, she was poisoned by a man named Gian Lorenzo Pappacoda.
He was an officer she trusted, but he betrayed her and murdered her on the orders of King Philip II of Spain.
The Spanish king wanted to avoid paying off the huge debt of the former Polish queen, and Jane Matko poisoned Queen Bona.
She died on1557165438+10/9 at the age of 63.
/kloc-One of the most important women in the 6th century was buried in St Nicholas Cathedral in Bali. Poland has forgotten Bona for centuries.
Most of her things have been lost.
Up to now, there is no monument to the Queen in Poland.
She seems to have been misunderstood and unappreciated by her former subjects, and this situation is unlikely to change much in the future. Above: Queen Bona by Lucas Cranch, Jr.
