	Peter I, Duke of Brittany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Pierre I, Duke of Brittany (~1190 - 1251), also known as Peter of Dreux, was duke of Brittany (in right of his wife) from 1213-1221, then regent of the duchy (for his minor son) from 1221-1237.
		This great English honor had traditionally been held by the dukes of Brittany, and in fact a constant theme in Pierre's political affairs was the desire to hold and retain the English revenues from Richmond.
		Her death meant that Pierre was no longer Duke, although he continued to rule the duchy with undiminished authority, as regent for his son Jean, then a boy of four or so.

		However, Constance died in 1202, and since Guy's rule was based on thin criteria, King Philip II of France took control of the duchy soon afterwards.
