Hi,

Lothar's profession was beeing a soldier. Remember: Manfred was forced to become a soldier - Lothar chose this job himself. I do not know the details, but I think the relationship to this Countess was not that 'arranged'.

i tried to leave this uncommented but i canīt. Man you are so far away from being a gentleman. Even if your post was written with a little irony, all i can say is...: "Du hast nicht mehr alle Tassen im Schrank"
