[S298] Wikipedia: Philip I of France, Philippe Capet I. Philip I (23 May 1052 – 29 July 1108), called the Amorous, was King of the Franks from 1060 to 1108, the fourth from the House of Capet. His reign, like that of most of the early Capetians, was extraordinarily long for the time. The monarchy began a modest recovery from the low it reached in the reign of his father and he added to the royal demesne the Vexin and Bourges. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_I_of_France [S321] Wikipedia: Anne of Kiev, Anna Agnesa Yaroslavna. Anne of Kiev (c. 1030 – 1075), Anna Yaroslavna, Anna of Rus also called Agnes, in France known initially as Anne de Russie[1] or Agnes de Russie,[2] was the queen consort of Henry I of France, and regent of France during the minority of her son, Philip I of France, from 1060 until 1065. Anne founded St. Vincent Abbey in Senlis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_of_Kiev [S322] Wikipedia: Henry i of France, Henri Capet I. Henry I (4 May 1008 – 4 August 1060) was King of the Franks from 1031 to 1060, the third from the House of Capet. The royal demesne of France reached its smallest size during his reign, and for this reason he is often seen as emblematic of the weakness of the early Capetians. This is not entirely agreed upon, however, as other historians regard him as a strong but realistic king, who was forced to conduct a policy mindful of the limitations of the French monarchy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_I_of_France
