	Encyclopedia: Peter I, Duke of Brittany
		Pierre I, Duke of Brittany (~ 1190- 1251), also known as Peter of Dreux, was duke of Brittany (in right of his wife) from 1213-1221, then regent of the duchy (for his minor son) from 1221- 1237.
		The authority of the dukes of Brittany had traditionally been weak, in comparison to the great peers of northern France.
		This great English honor had traditionally been held by the dukes of Brittany, and in fact a constant theme in Pierre's political affairs was the desire to hold and retain the English revenues from Richmond.
