Telegraph Arts The queen ruled by others He duly became King consort of Scotland and shortly afterward - on his father's death in a jousting accident - King of France as Franois II. How British history might have been different had Franois II lived and been in a position to make good his wife's claim to the English throne is one of the great "what ifs" of 16th-century history. To achieve this, she was brought up in the French court from the age of five, and married at the age of 15 to Henri II's heir. www.buzztracker.org /2004/01/08/cache/15503.html   (1343 words)

Leopold II of Belgium King Leopold II died on December 17, 1909 and was interred in the Royal vault at the Church of Our Lady, Laeken Cemetery, Brussels, Belgium. In 1876 Leopold II of the Belgians organized an international association as a front for his private plan to "develop" central Africa. The fortunes of King Leopold II, the famed philanthropist, abolitionist, and self-anointed sovereign of Congo Free State (1885) which was seventy-six times larger geographically than Belgium itself and those of the multinational concessionary companies under his auspices, were mainly made on the proceeds of Congolese rubber, which had historically never been mass-produced in surplus quantities. knowallabout.com /l/le/leopold_ii_of_belgium.html   (953 words)

Britain, France mark 100 years of friendship Franois Mori/AP British and French national flags decorate the Champs Elysandeacute;es in Paris as the city prepares to welcome Britain's Queen Elizabeth II for ceremonies marking 100 years of friendship. To mark the centenary, Queen Elizabeth II and her husband, Prince Philip, will pay a three-day state visit to France beginning Monday. Although the British and French showed they could cooperate by agreeing in February to work together on the construction of a new generation of aircraft carriers, the French are still annoyed by Britain's unwillingness to adopt the euro, the unified European currency. www.buzztracker.org /2004/04/04/cache/137188.html   (807 words)

World Politics  Much Ado About Something France was the primary supporter of Essy, based on the fact that he spoke fluent French (but only halting English), had earned his law degree from Poitiers University in France, and came from a former French colony. For one, France's president, Franois Mitterrand, charged that "the British conception [of the EU] does not correspond to that of the founding countries." The upshot of the imbroglio was a month of maneuvering that led to the selection of Prime Minister Jacques Santer of Luxembourg as a compromise between the forces of integration and restraint in Europe. highered.mcgraw-hill.com /sites/007248179x/student_view0/chapter7/a_further_note_1.html   (1437 words)

Excite UK - Travel - Europe - Monaco - History and Government This Machiavellian approach – indeed, Machiavelli himself was in Monaco in the early 16th century to sign a treaty on behalf of Florence – paid dividends in 1612 when Honoré II was granted the title of prince by the French crown. He signed a treaty of friendship with France, and the principality remained independent from that time on, despite a brief interruption during the French Revolution. Originally of Genoese extraction, the Grimaldis rose to prominence during the 12th century, when one member of the family became ambassador both to the court of the German Emperor Frederick II (Barbarossa) and to that of his Byzantine counterpart, Manuel Commenus. www.excite.co.uk /travel/guides/europe/monaco/HistoryGovernment   (542 words)

LYON / The old is new again / Revival of ancient core gives France's Ôsecond city' a second chance Old Lyon is one of France's great architectural conundrums, built with stones scavenged from the former Roman city of Lugdunum, capital of Roman Gaul. Pierre, our new friend added, has long been considered one of the most important in France for 19th and 20th century art, and got a thorough remodeling in the 1990s. The gateway to France's Midi region, old Lyon's color scheme suggests Provencal or Genoese panache, with many buildings plastered in peach, apricot and other pastel tones. www.sfgate.com /cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/chronicle/archive/2002/04/28/TR34405.DTL   (2627 words)

SignOnSanDiego.com > News > James O. Goldsborough -- The age-old France-England feud But when Queen Elizabeth I executed Mary, Queen of Scots, who had married Franois II, the French king, thoughts of unity died for four centuries, or until 1940, when Churchill, in extremis, proposed it again. Cousins joined together by common Norman blood and intermarriage, without the Reformation France and England might be united today as England and Scotland are united. The German nation, like the Italian, didn't exist until the 19th century, whereas France and England go back another 900 years. www.signonsandiego.com /news/op-ed/goldsborough/20030327-9999_mz1e27goldsb.html   (845 words)
