Aeschylus himself had earlier fragments than The Persians.
This list contains all of the known fragments of his works, there's only 7 complete works, of which The Persians is one of them. There's also some works attributed to
Thespis, but nothing authenticated, many (if not all) works attributed to him were later determined to be forgeries. --

Which present-day Western monarchs married other royals, nobles, and/or aristocrats (as opposed to commoners)?

Wow! She married someone with an extremely rare pedigree--specifically a pseudo-noble! Similar to how
Jeff Bezos is a pseudo-Hispanic!

I checked every country (Spain, Andorra, Luxembourg, Monaco, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, San Marino) but not Liechtenstein. I see why - StellarHalo mentioned it last night. StellarHalo mentions Princess Marie and Alansplodge mentions Countess Georgina who was actually the wife of Franz Josef II.

D'oh! I think we have the lot then. Not a monarch (yet) but perhaps a mention of Prince Charles, who married Lady Diana Spencer of the aristocratic
Spencer family, and we all know that didn't end well.
