The Orders in the Golden Century
Our century has arrived, and it does not look much like the one the military orders were built for.
The work of the age is in Flanders, in Milan, and across the ocean: fleets, banks, and tercios paid in silver. The orders hold castles facing a frontier that has not existed within living memory, and their brothers, who are still the finest heavy horse in the Catholic world, spend their seasons collecting rents and disputing precedence.
They are an asset the Crown has stopped using.
