Philip Ii of France: King John
built 654 days ago
Failing to attend the court of Philippe II, John was declared to be a rebel and to have forfeited the areas of Aquitaine, Poitou and Anjou. Philippe tried to mediate in the problems between John and the Lusignans but was ignored by John. The lands were given to Arthur of Brittany. Philippe kept Normandy for himself.

Henry II's remaining sons, John and Richard, joined with Philip II of France to take over Touraine. Henry II was ousted from the region. He died shortly after. He had recognised Richard as his heir just before his death.
