	Anjou Did You Mean anjou
		From the outset of the reign of Charles the Bald, the integrity of Anjou was seriously menaced by a two-fold danger: from Brittany and from Normandy.
		In spite, however, of the concerted attacks of William the Bastard (the Conqueror), duke of Normandy, and Henry I of France, he was able in 1051 to force Maine to recognize his authority, though failing to revenge himself on William.

		However, after King John was crowned in the early 13th century, a series of stunning failures on his part led the barons of England to revolt and place checks on the king's power.
		However, what the government did need was money, for during this period of prosperity mercenary soldiers cost nearly double what they had, but it was difficult to raise the taxes of the kingdom due to pre-eminence of tradition which demanded taxes remain at the level which they had always been.
		Also the loss of the French territories, especially Normandy, meant there had been a great depreciation in the income of the realm, and a huge tax would have to be raised in order to attempt to reclaim these territories.
