Indeed, at the commencement of the Capetian dynasty at the end of the 10th century, Hugh Capet’s immediate sphere of power was in the Ile de France.

Besides the issue of John being young and inexperienced, Richard was emotionally rooted in Aquitaine and refused to give the land away. He enlisted his political ally and close friend, King Philip II of France. During November of 1188, Richard promised Philip shared power over Normandy and Anjou and swore his subservience.

Their punishment is a kind of reverse baptism; they are upside-down in holes and baptized by fire, not water. The holes in the ground represent coin pouches that…
