    Very interesting episode, the whole 16th century in France seems like a bit of a metaphorical rollercoaster. Keep up the good work , love your channel and content you put out!

    Quite interesting the way his legacy is viewed especially the military and diplomatic aspects of it

      also matters regarding arts, culture, linguistics. However, historians in France have had a split opinion on his rule and impact.

      @@wonderershistorypodcast Yeah, he is the only King where I reckon his cultural influence outshines his military record.

      Wouldn't say the only one, James IV of Scotland springs to mind, there would be quite a few Popes, Venetian Doges as well. As for the military record of Francis I find it a very complex & interesting issue (more on the diplomatic side of things with the Ottomans).

    Someone who damn near procreated himself out of the throne when he was er, enjoying the "Tudor Rose". Any offspring would have been credited to the King, not Frankie.

    One of my favourite French Kings gets his ten minutes. Ahh, yes. That being noted he played so fast and loose with his religious convictions that I cannot like him too much, including replacing Latin with french. Like just get along with Charles for @~?£'s sake!!! Edit: Also Francis is not a French name (I think, it seems Italian.) so how?

      I've often wondered about what was a very complex relationship between Francis I and Charles V. Rivals from very early on with the imperial election in 1519 but also when it came to Milan and other parts of Italy. In a way I think Francis foresaw the problematic situation with France being stuck between Habsburg Spain and the Empire, not sure about him predicting the outcome of the Treaty of Cateau-Cambresis in 1559. Combined with the emergence of Protestantism and some economic issues it made things very complicated for the French King. As for the name Francis it has Latin origins. His proper French name would be Francois but English historiography & history generally refers to him as Francis. Of course, if I made the podcast in French I would have referred to him as Francois I.
