The flag of Bilbali as depicted in Man O' War: Corsair
Queen Juana la Roja is the current ruler of the kingdom of Bilbali in Estalia.[1a]
In recent years the merchants and ship-captains of Bilbali have placed great pressure on their ruler, to do something - anything - about the danger of Brionnese piracy. Rumour has it that the Queen is considering a strike against Brionne or licensing privateers to attack Marienburg's shipping, while Bilbali ships have become more active in the New World, smuggling and raiding, with the consequent risk of conflict with the Elves.[1a]
Trivia[]
Juana la Roja is based, at least name-wise, on Queen Juana la Loca (Juana the Mad), daughter of the Catholic Monarchs who inherited the Crowns of Castille and Aragon from her parents. She was interned due to her alledged mental state and her son, Carlos I, unified and ruled the Spanish Kingdoms, officially being co-monarch with his mother.
