Editing Ferdinand I of Naples (section)

==== The consequences ====
After this episode the clamors of the sovereigns arose from all sides for having violated the faith on which the sacred pact that granted forgiveness to all the barons was based.<ref name="Ornata de Loro Rispettivi Ritratti"/><ref name="Morelli 1825"/>

[[Alfonso II of Naples|Alfonso]] cleared himself and Ferrante did too, but in vain. The Pope then urged [[Charles VIII of France|Charles VIII]] to invade the kingdom, however Ferrante with a new treaty averted the threat.<ref name="Ornata de Loro Rispettivi Ritratti"/><ref name="Morelli 1825-2">{{harvnb|Morelli|1825|p= 228}}.</ref> In this time almost the whole [[Kingdom of Naples|kingdom]] had a great shortage of food and everywhere people could be seen dying of hunger, but the providence of the King purely took notice, using every means to make the condition of his peoples less sad. The Neapolitans, grateful, by public decree struck medals in his honor, in which there was on one side the effigy of the king with the letters Ferdinandus DG Hierusalem, Siciliae Rex and on the other a woman dressed in long clothes, having in the right two ears of wheat and on the left a corba full of ears with the following inscription: "Frug. Ac. Ordo. Et- P. Neap. Opt. Princip".<ref name="Nicolò Morelli-1849" />

King Ferdinand the Catholic, having understood that Ferrante had disobeyed the pact, began to complain to him, taking the pretext of conquering the kingdom of Naples. King Ferrante, having understood the dissatisfaction of the Catholic King, sent Giovanni Nauclerio to Spain to apologize for not having been able to do anything else since the restless barons began to plot new conspiracies against him. Giovanni, seeing that the Catholic king was dissatisfied with that embassy, began to organize a wedding with the help of Queen [[Joanna of Aragon, Queen of Naples|Joanna]], wife of Ferrante and sister of the Catholic King, between Ferrandino, eldest son of the Duke of Calabria, and one of the Ferdinand II's daughters, but the negotiations were not concluded.<ref name="Le vite de Re di Napoli"/><ref name="Biancardi 1737-8">{{harvnb|Biancardi|1737|pp= 354–355}}.</ref>
