@0xA1E8 I fact checked with a wikipedia check. It confirmed the assertion. Usually good enough for me. But i will read this article when i get a minute.
@freemo I did that too, but couldn't find a digital english version of the cited book. So I did some more digging and found this write-up of an actual historian. I hope it does interest you, it was interesting for me.
