Hello, and welcome one more Friday to Tinto Flavour, the happy days in which we take a look at the flavour content of Europa Universalis V!
Today, we will take a look at France! Let’s start without further ado:
The death of King Charles IV without issue in 1328 marked the end of Capet rule over the Kingdom of France, resulting in the coronation of King Philippe VI de Valois, a relative from a former cadet branch of the dynasty. However, it has been contested by King Edward III Plantagenet of England, on the pretext that while the Salic Law of France forbids the passing of the throne to a female successor, it does not forbid the inheritance through a female line. As the son of Dame Isabelle ‘the She-Wolf’ Capet, the last living sibling of King Charles IV, King Edward III might claim the throne of France as his birthright.
The tension over both countries has worsened over the past years, as our hospitality of the exiled young ruler of the Scots, King David II de Bruce, has enraged the English court, whose Balliol puppet seeks to seize that crown. As a response, King Edward III has also recently granted refuge to Sire Robert d’Artois, who escaped calls to face trial in Paris for his attempts to seize the County of Artois. There are rumors that Sire Robert is even encouraging the disgruntled King Edward III to press his claim to the throne of France militarily.
