Flanders, Brittany, Burgundy, Anjou, Normandy, Blois, Champagne, Toulouse, etc. From Blanca (more commonly called "Blanche" in the French context), we get the entire subsequent line of Navarre, whose hieresses later married the French King Philip IV, the French counts of Evreux, Foix, and Albret, King John II of Aragón, and finally Anthony Duke of Vendôme, the heir of the Bourbons. The son of Jeanne III of Navarre and Anthony was then King Henry III of Navarre, who became King Henry IV of France.
