| | Louis XIV of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Louis XIV increased the power and influence of France in Europe, fighting three major wars—the Franco-Dutch War, the War of the League of Augsburg, and the War of the Spanish Succession—and two minor ones—the War of Devolution, and the War of the Reunions. |
 | | Louis XIV considered its construction one of the greatest achievements of his reign, which, along with the Chateau de Versailles, is one of the largest and most extravagant monuments in Europe, extolling a king and his country. |
 | | Thus Louis XIV's five-year-old great-grandson Louis, Duc d'Anjou, the younger son of the Duc de Bourgogne, succeeded to the throne and was to reign as Louis XV of France. |
