In 1214, at Bouvines, he defeated the combined forces of Jo hn, Holy Roman Emperor Otto IV, and the count of Flanders. Philip condoned th e crusade against the ALBIGENSES, which paved the way to the eventual annexat ion of S France by King LOUIS IX. The latter's son, Philip III (the Bold), 12 45-85 (r.1270-85), took peaceful possession of Poitou, Auvergne, and Toulouse by a small cession (1279) to England. He died during an unsuccessful invasio n of Aragón.

Philip V (the Tall), c.1294-1322 (r.1317-22), was regent for his infant nephew, JOHN I. When John died (1316), Philip had himself crowned despite the claims of John's sister.

Philip made not able administrative, judiciary, and military reforms and was succeeded by his brother CHARLES IV. Charles IV's successor, Philip VI, 1293-1350 (r.1328-50) , grandson of Philip III, invoked the Salic Law to set aside the claims of Ch arles's daughter and Charles's nephew, Edward III of England.
