In the year 814, when Charlemagne, his son Louis (or Lodewig), succeeded him died. He was married to Hermengarde de Hesbaye and had three sons: Lothair, Louis and Pippin.
Louis was like Debonaire or devout, very well deserved his nickname. In fact, he was very religious and was forced to enter a convent of sisters. This was rejected for decency, wisdom, did not deter them abstinence, cruel acts.
Louis distributed areas of his empire(Year 817) in Ordinatio Imperii, ensuring the indivisibility of the empire. After identifying Ordinatio, no division was possible, and his eldest son, Lothar, became his successor.
When his wife died Hermengarde, Louis fell in love with a young girl named Judith. She was the daughter of Count Welf, Germany. Judith was a beauty and not much time for women to Louis.
His son, Charles born in the year 823 (the record of the time say that he does notJudith lover, but his son, the son of Louis). The king, who loved Judith was nothing of this love.
The birth of this child has destroyed the building of Ordinatio Imperii.
Judith was ambitious and dreams of a royal crown for her son and did not hesitate to try to pull their children by right of succession. He encouraged young Louis to the territories of its older module will reduce to an additional State of which Charles would be king.
Of course the princenot appreciate, rebelling against his father and mother-in-law. To be able to interfere with this rebellion, Judith Lothar chose the young Charles Pate of being accepted and was forced to defend itself against its enemies.
When Louis the Debonaire its decision to constitute a reign of Charles, rebelled again, his three other wire. Judith has been locked in a monastery, and Louis, lost his imperial crown, and was obliged to respect Ordinatio.
AReversal of the situation has led to Judith back next to her husband and even more challenging, encouraging Louis to reconsider the distribution division of his country: a division into four equal parts.
Lothair, Louis and Pippin fought back against Judith and once again was launched in the monastery.
In the year 835, was recovering his title of Emperor Louis and Judith encouraged him again, without neglecting to review the allocation of territories. Tough, smart, theymanaged to overcome their children Hermengarde and assured that Louis worked on the constitution of the future Charles Reich.
When Pippin died, thought to Lothar Ordinatio that would be executed, but he was wrong.
Louise Debonaire divided the territory into three kingdoms innovative, whose boundaries were received from north to south. Charles was an area of Antwerp to go to Marseilles, this area was 70% of the current in France.
Debonaire Louis, died in840 and will never be the completion of their work. In fact, the agreement was signed in August of Verdun 843, a few months after the death of Judith.
Charles was the king of western France. He was born in France and, thanks to a woman. When Louis the Debonaire Judith was not married, would Ordinatio were observed and the distribution of 'empire would have been different.
Now let Carolingians.Their race quickly degenerated, and insteadprestigious names have been given names without prestige. People who despise and ten years before the famous 1000, elected a new king, Hugh Capet, Duke of France and Count of Paris.
He speaks of his ancestors, from X. Century to the nineteenth century, "The City", as King Louis Philippe lost his crown, the king of France were all heirs of Hugh Capet children.
During the reign of his descendants, women contribute to a stronger position. Youand build alliances, kings, guarantee to destroy the kingdom of the UK or France, his children, the cowards were too young or too weak to govern, or, as did Catherine de Medici. The infidelity of the queen encouraged other attorneys for the Salic law, preventing women to rule over France. Some of them were even dangerous. But all these women was about love.
For the love of a man who love their children, love of France, or simplyThe love of power.
