3 history facts that should be known!!!
1. King George III was 6′6 (I’m 99% sure of this, found it on the 2nd page of google tho)
2. Alexander Hamilton may’ve never had an affair with Maria Reynolds!!! It may’ve just been a cover up between Alexander and James Reynold to hide that they’d been illegally speculating. There is no proof besides Alexander and James’s word that the affair happened. When Maria was accused publicly, she broke down, crying and denied it. When Eliza learned about the “affair,” she didn’t have any negative feelings about it, unlike in the musical. She burned the letters from James Reynolds as a widow.
3. Gilbert du Motier, Marquis de Lafayette probably wore a flower crown as they were sometimes used at Royal Parties.

The loss of life?

Hanging in the wind...

We should’ve known better. I thought there were still secret places. Hidden in the cracks and crevices of this world. Places we could make beautiful, peaceful, quiet, safe.
