Philip IV of France
Philip IV (April–June 1268 – 29 November 1314), called Philip the Fair , was King of France from 1285 to 1314.
By virtue of his marriage with Joan I of Navarre, he was also King of Navarre as Philip I from 1284 to 1305, as well as Count of Champagne.
Although Philip was known as handsome, hence the epithet "le Bel", his rigid and inflexible personality gained him (from friend and foe alike)
other nicknames, such as the Iron King .
His fierce opponent Bernard Saisset, bishop of Pamiers, said of him: "he is neither man nor beast.
He is a statue."
Philip relied on skillful civil servants, such as Guillaume de Nogaret and Enguerrand de Marigny, to govern the kingdom rather than on his nobles.
Philip and his advisors were instrumental in the transformation of France from a feudal country to a centralized state.
The king, who sought an uncontested monarchy, compelled his vassals by wars and restricted feudal usages.
His ambitions made him highly influential in European affairs.
His goal was to place his relatives on foreign thrones.
Princes from his house ruled in Naples and Hungary.
He tried and failed to make another relative the Holy Roman Emperor.
He began the long advance of France eastward by taking control of scattered fiefs.
The most notable conflicts of Philip's reign include a dispute with the English over King Edward
I's fiefs in southwestern France, and a war with the Flemish, who had rebelled against French royal authority and humiliated Philip at the Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302 but resulted with Philip's ultimate victory with which he received a significant portion of Flemish cities that were added to the crown lands along with a vast sum of money.
In 1306, Philip expelled the Jews from France, and in 1307 he annihilated the order of the Knights Templar.
He was in debt to both groups and saw them as a "state within the state".
To further strengthen the monarchy, Philip tried to take control of the French clergy, leading to a violent conflict with Pope Boniface VIII.
This conflict resulted in the transfer of the papal court to the enclave of Avignon in 1309.
His final year saw a scandal amongst the royal family, known as the Tour de Nesle affair, in which Philip's three daughters-in-law were accused of adultery.
His three sons were successively kings of France, Louis X, Philip V, and Charles IV.
Their deaths without surviving sons of their own would compromise the future of the French royal house, which until then seemed secure, precipitating a succession crisis that would eventually lead to the Hundred Years' War (1337–1453).

Isabella of France
Isabella of France (1295 – 22 August 1358), sometimes described as the She-Wolf of France , was Queen of England as the wife of Edward II, and regent of England from 1327 until 1330.
She was the youngest surviving child and only surviving daughter of Philip IV of France and Joan I of Navarre.
Isabella was notable in her lifetime for her diplomatic skills, intelligence, and beauty.
She became a "femme fatale" figure in plays and literature over the years, usually portrayed as a beautiful but cruel and manipulative figure.
Isabella arrived in England at the age of 12 during a period of growing conflict between the king and the powerful baronial factions.
Her new husband was notorious for the patronage he lavished on his favourite, Piers Gaveston, but the queen supported Edward during these early years, forming a working relationship with Piers and using her relationship with the French monarchy to bolster her own authority and power.
After the death of Gaveston at the hands of the barons in 1312, however, Edward later turned to a new favourite, Hugh Despenser the Younger, and attempted to take revenge on the barons, resulting in the Despenser War and a period of internal repression across England.
Isabella could not tolerate Hugh Despenser and by 1325 her marriage to Edward was at a breaking point.
Travelling to France on a diplomatic mission, Isabella may have begun an affair with Roger Mortimer, and the two may possibly have agreed at this point to depose Edward and oust the Despenser family.
The Queen returned to England with a small mercenary army in 1326, moving rapidly across England.
The King's forces deserted him.
Isabella deposed Edward, becoming regent on behalf of her son, Edward III.
Some believe that Isabella then arranged the murder of Edward II.
Isabella and Mortimer's regime began to crumble, partly because of her lavish spending, but also because the Queen successfully, but unpopularly, resolved long-running problems such as the wars with Scotland.
In 1330, Isabella's son Edward III deposed Mortimer in turn, taking back his authority and executing Mortimer.
The Queen was not punished, however, and lived for many years in considerable style—although not at Edward III's court, though she often visited to dote on her grandchildren and was marginally involved in peace talks—until her death in 1358.
