 Joan of Arc's Letter to the King of Navarre, 1429   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
There is a brief reference, in the index of the archives of the Parliament of Le Nain, to a letter which was dictated by Joan of Arc to the "King of Navarre" in 1429.
Navarre was a small kingdom in the Pyrenees, between France and Castille, which had long been a vassal-state of France.
At the time Joan of Arc's letter was sent in 1429, Navarre was essentially under a joint rulership: upon the death of Charles "the Noble", his daughter Blanca had inherited and therefore she and her husband Juan II served as rulers.
