List of French monarchs

The title of "King of the Franks" (Rex Francorum) dates back to Clovis I and the Merovingian dynasty in the 5th century. Phillip II Augustus was the first to use the style and title of "King of France" (Rex Franciae). The Kings of France have also been Kings of Burgundy (Rex Burgundiae) since 1276, when Louis X was granted the Crown of Burgundy by Pope Nicholas III.
