  2. England and English holdings in France; 12th and 13th centuries

  3. What led to the Magna Carta in England? • The Norman and Plantagenet kings in England became quite powerful in the 11th 12th and 13th centuries; kings took power at the expense of feudal lords. • King John was forced to sign the Magna Carta; John was disliked and tried to take too much away from feudal lords.

  4. France in 1328

  5. How did the monarchy in France become so strong? • Over many years, the French monarchy slowly took rights away from feudal lords; it was so slow that there wasn’t the backlash that there was in England. • Examples: • Louis VI took advantage of the growing number of towns in France in the 12th century, granting them self-government and they became more loyal to the king. • Philip II Augustus doubled the area of his domain through marriage and war; he appointed local officials loyal to him. • Louis IX outlawed private warfare and worked to give only the king the power to mint coins • Philip IV increased territory by defeating England and Flanders in war; he wanted to use the Estates-General to raise taxes nationally instead of locally.

  6. Holy Roman Empire in the 11th century

  7. Why did conflicts develop between rulers and popes? • The Holy Roman Emperors are the descendants of Lothair; by the 1100’s the Empire controls most of modern day Germany. • Otto the Great and his successors claimed the right to intervene in the election of popes; popes claimed the right to choose and depose kings and emperors. • The emperors had difficulty gaining power because of powerful local lords. • The Concordat of Worms allowed the emperor to choose bishops in the empire and gave the pope the power to reject unworthy candidates.
