	LOUIS III. - LoveToKnow Article on LOUIS III.
		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 Philip left more and more to his son, in spite of the opposition of Bertrada, the queen, whose criminal union with Philip had brought the anathema of the church.

	NU 2155 -- The Wars of Louis XIV
		By chosing for their king Louis XIV's deadliest foe, William of Orange, instead of his fellow Catholic and ally James II, the English had become involved in a deadly confrontation between France and one side, and most of the rest of western Europe on the other.
		Louis backed off rather than fight that combination; it seemed likely that Carlos II would die soon, and he preferred to save his political capital for the question of the Spanish succession.
		Louis, to secure the main prize for one of his grandsons and avoid pan-European opposition, actually proposed a partition of the empire to his worst enemy, William of Orange, a big step for such a proud man, and in 1698, a partition treaty was signed between England and France.
