The Once and Never Kings

History is filled with the stories of the successes of great leaders, and their conquests that have shaped history to the present day. In two countries, France and England, two men were once in command of a turning point in their respective histories. These men, Hugh Capet in France, and Cnut of Denmark in England, could've had very different lives. Lives that, instead of the two united nations we know and love (or, for some others, loathe) could have resulted in shattered lands.
