A little-known historical figure, Anne of France, daughter of King Louis XI, would play a decisive role in the history of France in the 16th century. In sixty years, she would know four kings, govern a kingdom, educate a generation of princes and hold, in Moulins, one of the most sumptuous courts of the time. From her father, Anne inherited authority and the art of manipulation. Two qualities that would allow her to seize power when it was not intended for her and to obtain the annexation of Brittany to the kingdom of France. Through her marriage to Pierre de Beaujeu, she was at the head of the Duchy of Bourbon, the last great semi-independent principality of the kingdom and coveted by the king of France. ????Find Secrets d'histoire: thousands of videos on our platform: https://www.secretsdhistoire.tv/ on our store: https://laboutiquesecretsdhistoire.tv/ on Facebook: / secretsdhistoire on X: / secretshistoire on Instagram: / secretsdhistoire
