Louis IX, “St. Louis”,
1226-1270,
- the ideal medieval king, renowned
for his justice and bravery - 1244, went on his first crusade, but it was poorly managed, he was
captured and most of his army was killed - in 1270 went on another crusade where he died of
disease - he was the first king to issue laws to the whole nation solely on his own authority
