Re: der Andgau



Hi Anton.

In Spain we know that our King Felipe V (the first one of the 
Spanish Bourboun Dinasty) was formerly the "Duque de Anjou". Anjou 
is pronounced /an'dZu/. The remainder Kings are only known as "Kings 
of Spain", not as "Dukes of Anjou", though I guess they also have 
this title.

Adio!

Aingel.
