Philip II, Duke of Burgundy
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Philip II, Duke of Burgundy, known as the Bold (Philippe II de Bourgogne, le Hardi in French) (January 15, 1342, Pontoise April 27, 1404, Halle), was the fourth son of King John II of France and his wife, Bonne of Luxembourg.
He was created Duke of Touraine in 1360, but as a reward for his valor at the Battle of Poitiers, in 1363 this was exchanged for the Duchy of Burgundy which Philip ruled until his death. Between 1380 and 1388 he ruled France with his brothers, Louis I of Anjou and John, Duke of Berry, as co-regents, during the minority of their nephew, Charles VI. He and his brother Berry again took up the regency when Charles shown signs of insanity in 1392, holding it until 1402, when Charles put affairs in the hands of his brother, the Duke of Orleans. Orleans's misrule led to Philip once again being placed in power shortly before his death in 1404.
In 1390, he obtained the County of Charolais, which would later become the title of the heirs of his duchy.
He was the founder of the second and last ducal House of Burgundy. He married Margaret III, Countess of Flanders (13501404/5) on June 19, 1369, thereby uniting the rich dominions of Burgundy and Flanders and had the following issue:
- John the Fearless (13711419, murdered at Montereau), his eldest son and successor as Duke of Burgundy
- Charles (13721373)
- Marguerite of Burgundy (October 1374 March 8, 1441, Le Quesnoy), Countess of Mortain married William VI, Count of Holland and Duke of Bavaria-Straubing
- Louis (13771378)
- Catherine of Burgundy (April 1378, Montbard January 24, 1425, Grey-sur-Saone), married Leopold IV, Duke of Austria
- Bonne (13791399, Arras)
- Antoine, Duke of Brabant (13861415, at Agincourt)
- Mary of Burgundy (September 1386, Dijon October 2, 1422, Thonon-les-Bains), married Amadeus VIII, Duke of Savoy
- Philip II, Count of Nevers and Rethel (13891415, at Agincourt)
