#OTD 1437 death of Joan of Navarre, widow of Henry IV of Eng. By 1st marriage, Duchess of Brittany, which she ruled as regent for her son. Marriage to Henry possibly love match, since neither had much to gain by it & Joan much to lose. Only English queen punished for witchcraft pic.twitter.com/0Mc8cFL5zW
