Action B of 20410 - Buchan and Wigtown Assist the Dauphin for Scotland

Description

The detention of the Scottish King in England had thus far been advantageous to Henry for it preserved during the whole course of the French war the tranquility of his northern frontier. But when word arrived in Scotland of the progress made by Henry they foresaw their own ruin if France was defeated. The Regent of Scotland declined to openly war against England so he permitted a body of seven thousand Scottish soldiers under the command of the Earl of Buchan to be transported into France for the service of the Dauphin.

Will happen on September 11, 1419

Description

Under John the Fearless, Burgundy had become the most powerful vassal of France, and acted increasingly more independent with respect to the Crown. Charles VI's madness had faciliated a civil war within the ranks of the nobility in France. The Burgundians and the Armagnacs had jockeyed for control of Charles VI and both had periodically exchanged positions of strength. John had murdered Louis Duke of Orleans, in the streets of Paris and years later, had massacred many Armagnacs in Paris when he had entered the city in 1418. Those who survived had fled to the side of the Dauphin, Charles. Hesitating between a final alliance with Henry V and a reconciliation with the Dauphin Charles, the Duke agreed to meet Charles in Montereau. Tempers flared during the meeting, and John and his retainers were cut to pieces. The alternative was to face humiliating concessions...

Description

Charles Dauphin of France had not attended the negotiations between Henry V and Charles VI at Troyes because he had not been invited. His father had been furious with the news of the Dauphin's actions at Montereau. Nevertheless, the negotiations had proceeded smoothly and had led to the Treaty of Orleans. This peace agreement secured for the King of England a daughter of Charles VI and the Duchies of Normandy and Guyenne in full sovereignty. Charles VI gained Henry V's renunciation of his claim to the Crown of France, and the Duke of Orleans and the Duke of Bourbon now had their freedom. Some within the Armagnac ranks were furious at Charles VI's territorial concessions, as their lands were now feifdoms of the Kingdom of England, and would deeply resent the treaty for years to come. However, the release of the Duke of Orleans and Duke of Bourbon soothed many tempers, and their adjutants were quick to return to the service of their lords. The Dauphin came to realize that England's renunciation of her claim of France was well worth the temporary loss of Guyenne. With Burgundy in disgrace, and Orleans and Bourbon in the ascendant at Charles VI's court, it only made sense to reconcile with his father...

Childless and in debt, he made a deal to transfer Valentinois to the Dauphin for 50,000 gold ecus and the continuation of the trial against Louis and Jean de Poitiers. In case of violation of the will, the Duke of Savoy had the right to seize Valentinois. In 1422, the dauphin sold the county for 30,000 ecus, raising funds to fight the burglars. The Duke of Savoy, Andrew VIII, kept his word and he entered the county of Valentinois to proclaim himself the Count.

The Treaty of Troyes, the English occupation and Burgundian hostility seemed to be in a position to take away all his legitimacy sooner or later, if he did not soon manage to gain a spectacular success capable of impressing itself on the mind of the Kingdom. At this point Charles met a young country woman from Donrйmy, she claimed to be sent by God, and to be ready to risk all to make the 'gentle Dauphin' the indisputable King.

If the succession of Philip the Good, in spite of his lack of legitimacy to the throne, had not posed a problem, it did at a time when the line of Valois-Burgundy seemed firmly established. A major crisis began when King Charles left a girl, Mary, as his only heir. If her rights on the Duchy of Burgundy and the other patrimonial lands could not be disputed, it was not so with the Crown of France, which could not fall to a woman. Who would finally claim the throne was far from obvious.

Charles of Valois was only sixteen years old upon the death of Charles VII the Bold, but his descent through the line of his grandfather Charles VI, made him the most legitimate candidate. This young man, rather disgraceful in physique, had a difficult puberty and is especially delayed in his intellectual development. This is why his elder sister, Anne of France, stands as regent of France with her husband, Pierre de Beaujeu. If Burgundy had lost the Kingdom of France for lack of a male heir, it was by the regency of a woman that the Valois recovery of the throne would be directed.

Action B of 170318 - The Estate of Charles the Bold for France

Description

Charles of Valois was only sixteen years old upon the death of Charles VII the Bold, but his descent through the line of his grandfather Charles VI, made him the most legitimate candidate. This young man, rather disgraceful in physique, had a difficult puberty and is especially delayed in his intellectual development. This is why his elder sister, Anne of France, stands as regent of France with her husband, Pierre de Beaujeu. With Burgundy having imposed a marriage with Mary, the unity of the Kingdom is not called into question.

Action A of 137060 - The Estate of Charles VI for Burgundy

Description

With the death of King Charles VI, the Dauphin and Philip Duke of Burgundy had entered into a series of negotiations aimed to find a peaceful and rightful settlement for the feud between the two. The Dauphin was prepared to make amends for the assassination of Philip's father, grant the Duke of Burgundy the disputed territories which included the Somme towns, and free the Dukes of Burgundy from liege homage to the Crown of France. In return, Philip would fully back Charles's claim to the throne of France, and make war on those who would oppose the new King of France. Thus, Charles VII could finally return to the capital, and the Duke of Burgundy was confirmed in his possessions and could expect no interference from Paris.

After much hesitation, Charles agreed to support Joan, urged on by his mother-in-law Yolanda of Aragon who never ceased in her support of the young country woman. Throughout the Kingdom, rumours spread of a Maid, who by her purity would cure the evils caused by Isabella of Bavaria. It was however, not as leader in war that Joan would achieve her feats, but as a symbol, proof of the divine support to the claims of Charles. The moral repercussions which resulted from her successes at Orleans, then at Rheims greatly enhanced the recognition of the legitimacy of Charles throughout France.

Description

After the triumphal campaign of 1419-1420, nothing more could prevent Henry V from making his rights to France recognised. However, he chose to negotiate a generous peace, contrary with his former declarations. Henry V was prepared to release the Dukes of Orleans and Bourbon. Both of whom, had been held captive in London since Agincourt. Furthermore, Henry V was to wed Katherine Valois, daughter of Charles VI. Lastly, the English would accept a large payment to cover Henry V's costs, his renunciation of the Crown of France, KAtherine's dowry, and the ransom for the two Dukes. In the meantime, Burgundy, abandoned by Henry V, could not maintain a hold on either PAris, or Charles VI. The Dauphin, and the principle Armagnac leaders, regained control of Charles VI.

On October 21, 1422, King Charles VI of France died in complete isolation. In accordance with the agreements made between the Dauphin and the Duke of Burgundy, the latter agreed to recognise Charles VII as successor to the throne, but at a price. Burgundy would no longer pay homage for Flandern and was granted the Somme towns. Burgundy recognized Charles VII's sovereign right to the throne of France, but the Duke of Burgundy was to pay merely lip service to Charles for his Burgundian estates.

Action A of 170288 - The Treaty of Troyes - Henry will Inherit the Crown for France

Description

Duke Philip of Burgundy's father, John 'the Fearless' had slaughtered the Armagnacs, including their leader, Bernard VI, and in turn had been cut down at Montereau in vengeance. In the aftermath of Montereau, Philip threw his lot in with the English. King Henry V had demanded the Crown of France, and to this effect a treaty recognizing Henry as regent and legitimate successor to Charles VI was drafted and signed at Troyes. Duke John's murder at Montereau had demonstrated to Charles VI that his son was unfit for the throne, a decision that was soon ratified by the Parlement in Paris. Those who refused to swear an oath of allegiance to the new order were now traitors and rebels. The Dauphinists, including the remnants of the Armagnac's, were now rebels in the eyes of the Burgundians and the English usurper, and had retreated south of the Loire shortly before Paris was captured. The Treaty commits England to conquer the lands held by the so-called rebels. Charles VI's remaining forces split along their partisan leanings. Many surrendered, some entered active service for Henry V, while others openly declared themselves for Charles, the 'rebel King of Bourges'. Dauphinist sympathies would stall the English campaign for some time as many strongholds to the south and east of Paris continued to resist the English advance. Nevertheless, the Burgundians commanded the city of Troyes which would facilitate Henry's push to link the Burgundian heartland with his newly acquired French posessions. Despite the early opportunity, the treaty was a serious blow to the sole surviving son of Charles VI and legitimate heir of France. Charles's hesitatation would cost him and his supporters dearly in the early phases of Henry V's renewed conflict...
