Years before her pregnancy, Louise of Angouleme was given a prophecy. Not only would she have a son, but that son would go on to be the King of France. At the time the idea seemed fanciful. Charles VIII sat on the French throne she was married to a minor member of the royal extended family.

Today we introduce Francis I and follow the French King through his roughly first ten months of kingship as he battles for Milan at Marignano.
