Margaret traveled to Hainault (Henegouwen) and was recognized there in her new position as ruler, and on 26 March, she left Hainault to visit her Northern domains of Holland and Zeeland. There were different difficulties in securing the position of Margaret in her three domains. In Holland and Zeeland, there were doubts as to whether female succession was legal, and while her gender was not a problem in Hainault, there where still the question of her sister's claims upon the domain. The claims of her sisters were also addressed.
