What did Thomas Boleyn hope to gain by placing Anne in the Imperial Court, & later, after Louis had died & Mary Tudor married Charles Brandon, arranging for both Mary & Anne to remain in France in Queen Claude's household? Certainly there had to be an advantage in it for him somewhere. What was it? |

Bragging rights? My kids are serving in foreign courts & yours ain't?  How come George never got to go anywhere or do anything when he was a youngster? |

Let's face it, Boleyn was a social climber. The French court was thought of as the epitome of sophistication. What better place to have them where they could "catch" a French husband of some rank. If that happened, then he would have a foothold in the French court as well as in the English one. |
