This sentence highlights the controversy surrounding the issue of whether or not the Kingdom of France was subject to the authority of the Holy Roman Empire. This debate also includes the issue of whether French king was a subject of the Holy Roman Empire and, therefore, a subordinate to the Holy Roman Emperor.
