Again, I have traversed Scotland extensively and now cannot always remember exactly where I took what. I think, this was near Fort Augustus, but cannot be absolutely sure, I AM sure it is Scotland. haha

The small harbour of the island of Ventotene. Ventotene is an island in the Tyrrhenian Sea, off the coast of Campania, Italy. It is the remains of an ancient volcano, and is part of the Pontine Islands. In Roman times it was known as Pandataria and Pandateria. It is also a commune belonging to the province of Latina (Lazio). Best known as the island to which the emperor Augustus banished his daughter Julia the Elder in 2 BC, as reaction to her excessive adultery, where she was to spend five years, and to which Tiberius banished his grand-niece Agrippina the elder in 29 AD, before perishing, probably of malnutrition, on October 18, 33 AD. After Agrippina’s son Gaius (better known as Caligula) became Emperor in 37 AD he went to Pandataria to collect her remains and brought them back to Rome. Agrippina’s youngest daughter, Julia Livilla was also exiled to Pandateria. She was deported on this island on the orders of her uncle, the emperor Claudius, at the instigation of his wife, Messalina, in 41 AD. Sometimes later, she was discreetly starved to death there and her remains were probably brought back to Rome when her sister Agrippina the Younger became influential as the emperor’s wife. Another distinguished lady of the Julio-Claudian dynasty, Claudia Octavia, who was the first wife of the emperor Nero, was banished to Pandateria in 62 AD and executed on the orders of her husband.This is also the island to which St. Flavia Domitilla, for whom the eponymous catacombs in Rome are named and who hid many saints (or recovered their remains when they were martyred), was banished. She was granddaughter of Emperor Vespasian. She may have died here. A prison camp was created under the Bourbons and restructured under Mussolini on the island with up to 700 opponents, including 400 communists, between 1939 and 1943. One of them was Altiero Spinelli who wrote there a text now known as the “Ventotene Manifesto”,

Philip II Augustus (French: Philippe Auguste) (21 August 1165 – 14 July 1223) was the King of France from 1180 until his death. / A member of the House of Capet, Philip Augustus was born at Gonesse in the Val-d’Oise, the son of Louis VII and his third wife, Adela of Champagne. He was originally nicknamed Dieudonné—the God-given—as he was the first son of Louis VII late in his father’s life. Philip was one of the most successful medieval French monarchs in expanding the royal demesne and the influence of the monarchy. He broke up the great Angevin Empire and defeated a coalition of his rivals (German, Flemish and English) at the Battle of Bouvines in 1214. He reorganized the government, bringing financial stability to the country and thus making possible a sharp increase in prosperity. His reign was popular with ordinary people because he checked the power of the nobles and passed some of it on to the growing middle class. Philip went on the Third Crusade (1189–1192) with Richard I. of England (1189–99), his very close friend. Who is able to read German (or willing to give babelfish or something like that a try and probably have a damn good laugh) can read a longer article on him on my blog: Philip Capet
