SO TRUE. I mean, I'm glad both Margarets and Mary of Hungary were there at all, but having Margaret of Parma lose out against Max just isn't fair. Having to rule the Netherlands with brother Philip and the Duke of Alba in your neck is easily as hard as ruling Mexico with the French as your sponsor, and Margaret had the good sense to resign when she couldn't work under these conditions.
