# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born in 931, Adelaide of Burgundy became Holy Roman Empress when she married Otto the Great, crowned alongside him by Pope John XII in Rome on 2 February 962. She was the first German queen consistently called consors regni — co-bearer of royalty — a formal recognition that she wielded power, not just reflected it. That template stuck: future empresses measured themselves against her blend of status and influence. Three decades after her coronation, she took the reins again as regent of the Holy Roman Empire from 991 to 995, guardian to her grandson. She died on 16 December 999, having shaped the role twice over.
