New material
• With monarchies, it is always the next in line to rule.
In France, when the French King Henry II died. He
had four sons, but all were very young and ruling
proved to be a disaster. Their mother was really incharge (Catherine de Médicis). In France, the
protestants known as Huguenots fought the
Catholics for control between 1562 – 1598. This
divided the country and weakened the government.
• In 1572, the St. Batholomew’s Day Massacre
occurred in Paris. This caused 6 weeks of killing of
Huguenots. It occurred when many Huguenot nobles
were in Paris for a wedding. Catherine de Médicis’s
daughter was marrying a Huguenot prince. The
prince survived.
New material
• Many nobles died during the outburst.
• The Prince was Henry Navarre. Although not a direct
descendant, Henry took over the throne and was
known as Henry IV.
• He was a military leader as well as skilled politician.
• Many Catholics opposed his rule until Henry
converted to become a Catholic.
• Edict of Nantes – Henry issued this to protect the
protestants. It stated they would be protected and
their right to worship protected.
• Henry focused on rebuilding the country as well as
uniting the people, but religious tensions existed.
One fanatic stabbed Henry for his religious tolerance.
New material
• Henry’s son (Louis XIII) acquired the throne following
his death.
• He was not like his father, he was a weak ruler, but
wisely selected a strong minister to make the
decisions that Louis could not make.
• This minister, Cardinal Richelieu in effect he was the
ruler of France. Decisions had to go through the King
but almost all decisions were agreed to by Louis.
• Richelieu was more outspoken of the Protestants.
