text_original: Competition now took a new form : there were rivals Joanna ii. not for the throne but for the hand of the Queen. Joanna II., sister of Ladislas, though far from being an attractive character, had no lack of suitors. The Count of La Marche was eventually accepted, in the hope of conciliat  ing France ; but the marriage was a failure from every point of view, and after long quarrels, ending in her hus  band's flight, Joanna reigned alone.
