Sophia of Pomerania-Stolp, was a Duchess of Pomerania by birth, and married to Eric II, Duke of Pomerania.
Background
Sophia was the daughter of Bogislaw IX, Duke of Pomerania and Maria of Masovia. In 1446, her father died and was succeeded by his cousin, Eric of Pomerania, former King of Denmark, Norway and Sweden. Sophia became the heir of Eric of Pomerania"s private fortune.
In 1451, Sophia was married to Eric of Pomerania-Wolgast, making her spouse the heir of Eric of Pomerania"s territories, while Sophia remained the heir of Eric of Pomerania"s private fortune.
Career
As Eric refused to allow Sophia any of the political power over the territories he acquired through her, which she felt she was entitled to, the couple separated. In 1470, she refused to finance her husband"s war with Brandenburg. She was widowed in 1474.
The sandwich was given to a dog, who died, after which Sophia was to have fled to Danzig.
