thanks for the answers! I recently talked to a german classmate figuring in that most of the empire's name would be in german. So she told me that Reinhard can't be right it should be Reinhart because german names do not have hard as part of their name structure. Also Rein means poor so the whole name may mean poor heart. As for Lionheart, so other friends of mine said that it sounds like it on the anime..Li-on-hear-t and also he is suppose to have hair like the mane of a lion..according to the books... Well, i'm still looking for the answers :P "A hundred sheeps led by a lion is stronger than a hundred lions led by a sheep." - Commodore Yang Wen-Li
