• Notes

  Ruled 1031-1060. The third of the Capetian line of French monarchs. He was the grandson of Hugh Capet and the son of Robert II. His reign was marked by a series of wars with ambitious French nobles. William, duke of Normandy, later known as William the Conqueror, was his contemporary. Henry's attempted invasions of Normandy were repelled by William in 1047 and again in 1058. A year before he died he crowned his son, Philip I, as joint king.
