	Louis VI
		Louis VI, King of France, surnamed "the Fat", was the son of Philippe I of France and Bertha of Holland.
		In 1098 Louis was made a knight, and about the same time was associated with his father in the government, which the growing infirmities of Philippe left more and more to his son, in spite of the opposition of Bertrada, the queen, whose criminal union with Philippe had brought the anathema of the church.
		Étienne de Garlande, whom Louis raised from obscurity to be archdeacon of Notre Dame at Paris, chancellor and seneschal of France, was all-powerful with the king from 1108 to 1127.
