Boniface I, Margrave of Tuscany

Boniface I (died 823) was appointed governor of Italy by Charlemagne after the death of King Pepin. He was the count and duke of Lucca and sometimes is considered the first margrave of Tuscany because of the various counties he amassed: Pisa, Pistoia, Volterra, and Luni. He was first attested in March 812.

He left a son, Boniface, who became margrave of Tuscany and another named Berard, who assisted his brother in the defence of Corsica. His only daughter, Richilda, became abbess of SS. Benedetto e Scolastica in Lucca.

gollark: Now, the diagram says "nginx". Nginx is also an important part of this setup. It is a reverse proxy allowing me to run all this slightly crazy stuff on one IP, and encrypt with "HTTPS" apiotechnology.
gollark: It also got a HTTP endpoint, available at https://radio.osmarks.net/random-stuff/current-song, which dumps the status etc. information in JSON for the frontend to read.
gollark: So this gained a loop polling MPD - remember, it has a client-server model, so other stuff can communicate with it. Use of MPD turned out to be a good design decision!
gollark: But that isn't very relevant here.
gollark: This also accreted a small admin interface and youtube-dl frontend, mostly as a result of an aborted attempt to implement SSO.
