    Louis I or Louis the Pious

    Fr. Louis le Pieux or Louis le Dbonnaire, 778-840, emperor of the West(814-40), son and succe ssor of Charlemagne. He was crowned king ofAquitaine in 781 and co-emperor with his father i n 813. His court was alearned one; his advisers included Benedict of Aniane. At the Assembl y ofAachen (817) he issued an imperial order that sought to preserve theunity of the empire b y breaking with tradition and not dividing theempire among his heirs. He thus made his eldes t son, Lothair I,co-emperor and gave Aquitaine and Bavaria to his sons Pepin I and Louisthe G erman. Louis's attempts to create a kingdom for Charles (laterEmperor of the West Charles II) , his son by a second marriage, provokedseveral revolts by his older sons. In 822, Louis repe nted publicly forhis persecution of the rebels. In 830, Lothair rebelled and becamevirtuall y sole ruler of the empire. However, Pepin and Louis the German,fearing Lothair's supremacy , soon restored their father to power. Anotherrevolt by all three sons occurred in 833. Loui s met the rebels nearColmar on a field known since then as the Field of Lies (Ger. Lügenfeld) because of the general defection of the imperial troops. Louis, compelledto surrender, was fo rmally deposed, and Lothair became sole emperor. Yetin 834, Louis the German and Pepin once m ore joined against Lothair andrestored Louis. Later he partitioned his empire between Lothai r andCharles and died while attempting to uphold the partition against theAquitanians and Lou is the German.

    Notes:



    Charles II or Charles the Bald

    823-77, emperor of the West (875-77) and king of the West Franks(843-77); son of Emperor Loui s I by a second marriage. The efforts ofLouis to create a kingdom for Charles were responsibl e for the repeatedrevolts of Louis's elder sons that disturbed the latter part of Louis'sreig n. When Lothair I, the eldest and heir to the imperial title,attempted to reunite the empir e after Louis's death (840), Charles andLouis the German marched against their brother and de feated him atFontenoy (841). Reaffirming their alliance in 842 (see Strasbourg, Oathof), the y signed (843) with Lothair the Treaty of Verdun (see Verdun,Treaty of), which divided the em pire into three parts. The part roughlycorresponding to modern France fell to Charles. He wa s almostcontinuously at war with his brothers and their sons, with the Norsemen(or Normans, a s they came to be known in France), and with rebellioussubjects. When Charles's nephew Lothai r, son of Lothair I and king ofLotharingia, died in 869, Charles seized his kingdom but was f orced bythe Treaty of Mersen (870) to divide it with Louis the German. In 875, atthe death o f his nephew Louis II, who had succeeded Lothair I as emperor,Charles secured the imperial cr own. His reign witnessed the growth of thepower of the nobles at the expense of the royal pow er and thus marked therise of local feudalism. Charles's chief adviser was Archbishop Hincmar .

    Charles married Ementrude D'Orlean Queen Of 842. Ementrude (daughter of ODON and PARIS, Engletrude) died 6 Oct 869, Saint-Denis, Ile-De-France, France. [Group Sheet]
