____________________________________________________
(Felipe III de Francia, llamado el Atrevido; Poissy, 1245 - Perpiñán, 1285) Rey de Francia (1270-1285). Hijo de Luis IX de Francia el Santo y de Margarita de Provenza, continuó la tarea de centralización administrativa iniciada por su padre (Ordenanzas de 1278). Se enfrentó a Pedro el Grande de Aragón por la corona de Sicilia y fue derrotado en el Coll de Panissars (1285), muriendo en la retirada.


Felipe III de Francia

Felipe III participó junto a su padre, el rey Luis IX de Francia, en la VII Cruzada organizada contra Túnez (1270). Muerto Luis IX en el transcurso de la cruzada, Felipe desembarcó en Sicilia y regresó a Francia, donde el 15 de agosto de 1271 fue ungido rey en Reims. Ese mismo año, tras la muerte de su tío Alfonso de Poitiers, esposo de Juana de Toulouse, Felipe III heredó Poitou, Auvernia, Aunis, el norte de Saintonge, el condado de Toulouse y el señorío de Albi. Felipe III de Francia casó en primeras nupcias con Isabel de Aragón (1262), de quien enviudó en 1271, y en segundas con María de Brabante (1274). El gobierno de Felipe III ha sido calificado como continuador de la política administrativa iniciada por su padre, que quedó recogida en las Ordenanzas de 1278.

La muerte de Enrique I el Gordo de Navarra (1274) había provocado una crisis dinástica al haber quedado como única heredera de Champagne y de Navarra su hija Juana, que tenía menos de dos años; su madre, la reina Blanca de Artois, se refugió en Francia en compañía de Juana. En mayo 1275, por el Tratado de Orleáns, Blanca de Artois encomendó a Felipe III de Francia el gobierno del reino de Navarra, a modo de protectorado, como mandatario de la reina Juana según los fueros y costumbres vigentes. Felipe III y Blanca de Artois acordaron el enlace entre los hijos de ambos: al año siguiente se firmaron las capitulaciones matrimoniales entre el hijo y sucesor de Felipe III, Felipe IV de Francia el Hermoso, y la reina Juana I de Navarra (1274-1305).

Los grandes del reino, entre los que se encontraban el gobernador Pedro Sánchez de Monteagudo, aceptaron el pacto, pero como contrapartida solicitaron el respeto de las leyes y fueros navarros. A partir de este momento Felipe III de Francia se hizo cargo del gobierno de Navarra hasta la mayoría de edad de Juana I, su futura nuera. Llegada a la mayoría de edad, en 1284 Juana I contrajo matrimonio, conforme a lo pactado, con Felipe IV, iniciándose en ese momento el reinado de Felipe IV y Juana I en Navarra.

La intromisión de la monarquía capeta en Navarra suscitó, junto a otras causas, la rebelión de los navarros o Guerra de Navarrería (1276). Las divisiones nobiliarias y los enfrentamientos entre los burgos francos de Pamplona, San Cernin y San Nicolás y el barrio de la Navarrería conllevaron la dimisión del gobernador, quien fue substituido por el francés Eustaquio de Beaumarchais; las propias desavenencias entre los burgos trajeron aparejada la reacción por parte de la nobleza contra la política francesa, en la que el gobernador fue cercado.

Ante esta serie de acontecimientos, Felipe III se trasladó al Bearne con el propósito de enviar tropas auxiliares, mandadas por Gastón de Bearne y por el condestable Imbert de Beaujeu; el barrio de la Navarrería quedó destruido y los castillos pasaron a manos francesas. El obispo y el cabildo catedralicio solicitaron a Felipe III una indemnización por el saqueo sufrido por la catedral; el monarca se mostró en principio favorable a tal medida, pero el gobernador Guerin de Amplepuis forzó en 1281 un acuerdo con la Iglesia por el que ésta cedía a la monarquía la mitad de su dominio sobre Pamplona a cambio de dicha indemnización. Sin embargo, los acuerdos de este pacto no fueron aprobados por el pontífice, con lo que no pudieron ponerse en práctica.

La oposición política al régimen francés continuó a través de la Hermandad de las Buenas Villas, constituida en 1276, y de la Junta de infanzones de Obanos (Navarra), que intentó ser disuelta por el gobernador en 1281. En este mismo año se reanudaron las hostilidades con Castilla y Aragón: ambos reinos habían firmado el Tratado de El Campillo, en el que se había fijado la conquista y posterior reparto de Navarra. Sin embargo, la guerra no llegó a desencadenarse, a pesar de que uno de los partidarios de los infantes de la Cerda, el señor de Vizcaya, se había refugiado en Navarra.



Felipe III de Francia secundó las actividades de su tío el rey de Sicilia, Carlos I de Anjou (1266-1282), en contra de Pedro III el Grande de Aragón (1276-1285), y pidió a éste garantías de que no lucharía contra el rey de Sicilia. Esta ayuda quedó reflejada en el envío de tropas a la isla, que desembarcaron en 1282, tras los sucesos de las Vísperas Sicilianas; en la lucha los angevinos fueron vencidos. Junto con el papa Martín IV (1281-1285), quien había desposeído a Pedro III de la investidura de sus dominios en favor de la infeudación de su tercer hijo, Carlos de Valois, Felipe III organizó una expedición para hacer valer tales derechos contra la Corona de Aragón; tal expedición recibió el nombre de la Cruzada contra los Catalanes, y su resultado fue la derrota en 1285 de los navíos franceses por parte del almirante Roger de Lauria.

Felipe III y su tío Carlos de Anjou, tras haber conseguido reunir una hueste numerosa, prepararon la invasión del reino de Navarra; por otro lado, el rey de Mallorca, Jaime II (1276-1311), hermano de Pedro III, pidió ayuda al monarca francés contra todo aquel que quisiera invadir su territorio, lo que quedó patente en 1283 con la firma de una alianza en Carcasona (Francia), en la que se reconocía la condición de subfeudo del señorío de Montpellier. El 10 de agosto se inició el ataque en las Bardenas; sin embargo, la rigurosidad del clima, unido a la fuerte resistencia de las villas fronterizas, frenaron la invasión. Al mismo tiempo, otro destacamento mandado por Eustache de Beaumarchais ocupó el valle de Arán (1283), lugar donde el obispo de Commenge leyó la bula de excomunión de Pedro III.

El enfrentamiento con los aragoneses continuó: las tropas franconavarras saquearon la Val d’Onsella (Huesca, 1283), lo que suscitó la reacción de Pedro III, quien en 1284 asoló la ribera de Tudela (Navarra) y penetró en el Rosellón (Francia) y Ampurdán (Girona, 1285), donde combatió contra el ejército de Felipe III; en junio de 1285, el avance francés fue frenado en el sitio de Girona, y en las proximidades del Coll de Panissars fueron vencidos por los aragoneses. En la retirada, Felipe III murió como consecuencia de una epidemia.

From Wikipedia, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_III_of_France

Philip III (30 April 1245 – 5 October 1285), called the Bold (French: le Hardi), was the King of France, succeeding his father, Louis IX, and reigning from 1270 to 1285. He was a member of the House of Capet.

Born in Poissy, to Louis IX (the later Saint Louis) and Marguerite of Provence, Philip was prior to his accession Count of Orleans. He accompanied his father on the Eighth Crusade to Tunisia in 1270. His father died at Tunis and there Philip was declared king at the age of 25. Philip was indecisive, soft in nature, timid, and apparently crushed by the strong personalities of his parents and dominated by his father's policies. He was called "the Bold" on the basis of his abilities in combat and on horseback and not his character. He was pious, but not cultivated. He followed the dictates of others, first of Pierre de la Broce and then of his uncle Charles I of Sicily.

After his succession, he quickly set his uncle on negotiations with the emir to conclude the crusade, while he himself returned to France. A ten-year truce was concluded and Philip was crowned in France on 12 August 1271. On 21 August, his uncle, Alfonso, Count of Poitou, Toulouse, and Auvergne, died returning from the crusade in Italy. Philip inherited his counties and united them to the royal demesne. The portion of the Auvergne which he inherited became the "Terre royale d'Auvergne," later the Duchy of Auvergne. In accordance with Alfonso's wishes, the Comtat Venaissin was granted to the Pope Gregory X in 1274. Several years of negotiations yielded the Treaty of Amiens with Edward I of England in 1279. Thereby Philip restored to the English the Agenais which had fallen to him with the death of Alfonso. In 1284, Philip also inherited the counties of Perche and Alençon from his brother Pierre.

Philip all the while supported his uncle's policy in Italy. When, after the Sicilian Vespers of 1282, Peter III of Aragon invaded and took the island of Sicily, the pope, Martin IV, excommunicated the conqueror and declared his kingdom (put under the suzerainty of the pope by Peter II in 1205) forfeit. He granted Aragon to Charles, Count of Valois, Philip's son. Philip intervened in the Navarrese succession after the death of Henry I of Navarre and married his son, Philip the Fair, to the heiress of Navarre, Joan I.

In 1284, Philip and his sons entered Roussillon at the head of a large army. This war, called the Aragonese Crusade from its papal sanction, has been labelled "perhaps the most unjust, unnecessary and calamitous enterprise ever undertaken by the Capetian monarchy."[1] On 26 June 1285, Philip the Bold entrenched himself before Gerona in an attempt to besiege it. The resistance was strong, but the city was taken on 7 September. Philip soon experienced a reversal, however, as the French camp was hit hard by an epidemic of dysentery. Philip himself was afflicted. The French retreated and were handily defeated at the Battle of the Col de Panissars. The king of France himself died at Perpignan, the capital of his ally James II of Majorca, and was buried in Narbonne. He currently lies buried with his wife Isabella of Aragon in Saint Denis Basilica in Paris.

In the Divine Comedy, Dante sees Philip's spirit outside the gates of Purgatory with a number of other contemporary European rulers. Dante does not name Philip directly, but refers to him as "the small-nosed" and "the father of the Pest of France."

Marriage and children

On 28 May 1262, Philip married Isabella of Aragon, daughter of James I of Aragon and his second wife Yolande of Hungary, daughter of Andrew II of Hungary, and had the following children:

Louis (1265 – May 1276). He was poisoned, possibly by orders of his stepmother.

Philip IV (1268 – November 29, 1314), successor as king.

Robert (1269 - 1271).

Charles (March 12, 1270 – December 16, 1325), Count of Valois.

Stillborn son (1271).

After Isabella's death, he married on 21 August 1274, Marie de Brabant, daughter of Henry III of Brabant and Adelaide of Burgundy. Their children were:

Louis (May 1276 – May 19, 1319), Count of Évreux.

Blanca (1278 – March 19, 1305, Vienna), married Rudolf III of Austria on May 25, 1300.

Marguerite (1282 – February 14, 1317), married Edward I of England

THE ROYAL ANCESTRY CONNECTION TO THE TILLINGHAST LINE

Posted by: Elton L. Powell (ID *****3093) Date: August 30, 2002 at 18:56:48

of 329
For many years there has been an effort of some of the Tillinghast descendents to find a blood connection to British

Royalty. Unfortunately for some of these they obviously found the earliest effort to make a Royal connection to King Edward III which in all cases has turned out to be WRONG. This effort had been put forth by a Dr.Wiess in a set of volumns called, "The American Genealogist", 'TAGS, if you will. The Doctor later admitted his error and stated that there was no provable connection through a Mrs Tichbourne. As I have stated in other messages, I have not found any marriage between a Tillinghast and a Tichbourne. Right now there are only some 100 messages on this Tillinghast Message board and all could be read in a reasonable length of time. Pay particular attention to these.

's 25 / 29 / 66 / 68 / 69 / 82 / 94 / 97 / & 99. I am not the expert but I can report on what I have found and I have already passed along this info to others; Mss.Debbie Richardson; Mr.Todd Lawrence; etc. And I stated on where I found it. But there IS a Tillinghast connection to the Royal
Blood of Britain and a Mss Vaughn in Britain researched it.

It goes through the wife of the 1st Pardon Tillinghast, the beer barrel maker,[cooper if you will].

Notice that this connection is made through Sarah Browne, the emigrant's mother. The name, Tillinghast , has not always been spelled this way. And the earliest that I have found it even in its earliest forms,[like Tyllynghrst, etc.] is about 800 AD. At a later date I will give what info I have on earlier antecedents but I never found a continual'bloodline'

in this family. [Somebody! Please go to England].

Philip III (30 April 1245 – 5 October 1285), called the Bold (French: le Hardi), was the King of France, succeeding his father, Louis IX, and reigning from 1270 to 1285. He was a member of the House of Capet.

Born in Poissy, to Louis IX (the later Saint Louis) and Marguerite of Provence, Philip was prior to his accession Count of Orleans. He accompanied his father on the Eighth Crusade to Tunisia in 1270. His father died at Tunis and there Philip was declared king at the age of 25. Philip was indecisive, soft in nature, timid, and apparently crushed by the strong personalities of his parents and dominated by his father's policies. He was called "the Bold" on the basis of his abilities in combat and on horseback and not his character. He was pious, but not cultivated. He followed the dictates of others, first of Pierre de la Broce and then of his uncle Charles I of Sicily.

After his succession, he quickly set his uncle on negotiations with the emir to conclude the crusade, while he himself returned to France. A ten-year truce was concluded and Philip was crowned in France on 12 August 1271. On 21 August, his uncle, Alfonso, Count of Poitou, Toulouse, and Auvergne, died returning from the crusade in Italy. Philip inherited his counties and united them to the royal demesne. The portion of the Auvergne which he inherited became the "Terre royale d'Auvergne," later the Duchy of Auvergne. In accordance with Alfonso's wishes, the Comtat Venaissin was granted to the Pope Gregory X in 1274. Several years of negotiations yielded the Treaty of Amiens with Edward I of England in 1279. Thereby Philip restored to the English the Agenais which had fallen to him with the death of Alfonso. In 1284, Philip also inherited the counties of Perche and Alençon from his brother Pierre.

Philip all the while supported his uncle's policy in Italy. When, after the Sicilian Vespers of 1282, Peter III of Aragon invaded and took the island of Sicily, the pope, Martin IV, excommunicated the conqueror and declared his kingdom (put under the suzerainty of the pope by Peter II in 1205) forfeit. He granted Aragon to Charles, Count of Valois, Philip's son. Philip intervened in the Navarrese succession after the death of Henry I of Navarre and married his son, Philip the Fair, to the heiress of Navarre, Joan I.

In 1284, Philip and his sons entered Roussillon at the head of a large army. This war, called the Aragonese Crusade from its papal sanction, has been labelled "perhaps the most unjust, unnecessary and calamitous enterprise ever undertaken by the Capetian monarchy." On 26 June 1285, Philip the Bold entrenched himself before Gerona in an attempt to besiege it. The resistance was strong, but the city was taken on 7 September. Philip soon experienced a reversal, however, as the French camp was hit hard by an epidemic of dysentery. Philip himself was afflicted. The French retreated and were handily defeated at the Battle of the Col de Panissars. The king of France himself died at Perpignan, the capital of his ally James II of Majorca, and was buried in Narbonne. He currently lies buried with his wife Isabella of Aragon in Saint Denis Basilica in Paris.

On 28 May 1262, Philip married Isabella of Aragon, daughter of James I of Aragon and his second wife Yolande of Hungary, daughter of Andrew II of Hungary, and had the following children:

Louis (1265 – May 1276). He was poisoned, possibly by orders of his stepmother.

Philip IV (1268 – November 29, 1314), successor as king.

Robert (1269 - 1271).

Charles (March 12, 1270 – December 16, 1325), Count of Valois.

Stillborn son (1271).

After Isabella's death, he married on 21 August 1274, Marie de Brabant, daughter of Henry III of Brabant and Adelaide of Burgundy. Their children were:

Louis (May 1276 – May 19, 1319), Count of Évreux.

Blanche (1278 – March 19, 1305, Vienna), married Rudolf III of Austria on May 25, 1300.

Marguerite (1282 – February 14, 1317), married Edward I of England

The resistance was strong, but the city was taken on 7 September. Philip soon experienced a reversal, however, as the French camp was hit hard by an epidemic of dysentery. Philip himself was afflicted. The French retreated and were handily defeated at the Battle of the Col de Panissars. The king of France himself died at Perpignan, the capital of his ally James II of Majorca, and was buried in Narbonne. He currently lies buried with his wife Isabella of Aragon in Saint Denis Basilica in Paris.

Philip III of France

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Philip III (30 April 1245 – 5 October 1285), called the Bold (French: le Hardi), was the King of France, succeeding his father, Louis IX, and reigning from 1270 to 1285. He was a member of the House of Capet.

Born in Poissy, to Louis IX (the later Saint Louis) and Marguerite of Provence, Philip was prior to his accession Count of Orleans. He accompanied his father on the Eighth Crusade to Tunisia in 1270. His father died at Tunis and there Philip was declared king at the age of 25. Philip was indecisive, soft in nature, timid, and apparently crushed by the strong personalities of his parents and dominated by his father's policies. He was called "the Bold" on the basis of his abilities in combat and on horseback and not his character. He was pious, but not cultivated. He followed the dictates of others, first of Pierre de la Broce and then of his uncle Charles I of Sicily.

After his succession, he quickly set his uncle on negotiations with the emir to conclude the crusade, while he himself returned to France. A ten-year truce was concluded and Philip was crowned in France on 12 August 1271. On 21 August, his uncle, Alfonso, Count of Poitou, Toulouse, and Auvergne, died returning from the crusade in Italy. Philip inherited his counties and united them to the royal demesne. The portion of the Auvergne which he inherited became the "Terre royale d'Auvergne," later the Duchy of Auvergne. In accordance with Alfonso's wishes, the Comtat Venaissin was granted to the Pope Gregory X in 1274. Several years of negotiations yielded the Treaty of Amiens with Edward I of England in 1279. Thereby Philip restored to the English the Agenais which had fallen to him with the death of Alfonso. In 1284, Philip also inherited the counties of Perche and Alençon from his brother Pierre.

Philip all the while supported his uncle's policy in Italy. When, after the Sicilian Vespers of 1282, Peter III of Aragon invaded and took the island of Sicily, the pope, Martin IV, excommunicated the conqueror and declared his kingdom (put under the suzerainty of the pope by Peter II in 1205) forfeit. He granted Aragon to Charles, Count of Valois, Philip's son. Philip intervened in the Navarrese succession after the death of Henry I of Navarre and married his son, Philip the Fair, to the heiress of Navarre, Joan I.

In 1284, Philip and his sons entered Roussillon at the head of a large army. This war, called the Aragonese Crusade from its papal sanction, has been labelled "perhaps the most unjust, unnecessary and calamitous enterprise ever undertaken by the Capetian monarchy."[1] On 26 June 1285, Philip the Bold entrenched himself before Gerona in an attempt to besiege it. The resistance was strong, but the city was taken on 7 September. Philip soon experienced a reversal, however, as the French camp was hit hard by an epidemic of dysentery. Philip himself was afflicted. The French retreated and were handily defeated at the Battle of the Col de Panissars. The king of France himself died at Perpignan, the capital of his ally James II of Majorca, and was buried in Narbonne. He currently lies buried with his wife Isabella of Aragon in Saint Denis Basilica in Paris.

In the Divine Comedy, Dante sees Philip's spirit outside the gates of Purgatory with a number of other contemporary European rulers. Dante does not name Philip directly, but refers to him as "the small-nosed" and "the father of the Pest of France."

Marriage and children

On 28 May 1262, Philip married Isabella of Aragon, daughter of James I of Aragon and his second wife Yolande of Hungary, daughter of Andrew II of Hungary, and had the following children:

Louis (1266 – May 1276)

Philip IV (1268 – November 29, 1314), successor as king

Charles (March 12, 1270 – December 16, 1325), Count of Valois

After Isabella's death, he married on 21 August 1274, Marie de Brabant, daughter of Henry III of Brabant and Adelaide of Burgundy. Their children were:

Louis (May 1276 – May 19, 1319), Count of Évreux

Blanche (1278 – March 19, 1305, Vienna), married Rudolf III of Austria on May 25, 1300

Margaret (1282 – February 14, 1317), married Edward I of England

Philip III (30 April 1245 – 5 October 1285), called the Bold (French: le Hardi), was the King of France, succeeding his father, Louis IX, and reigning from 1270 to 1285. He was a member of the House of Capet.

Born in Poissy, to Louis IX (the later Saint Louis) and Marguerite of Provence, Philip was prior to his accession Count of Orleans. He accompanied his father on the Eighth Crusade to Tunisia in 1270. His father died at Tunis and there Philip was declared king at the age of 25. Philip was indecisive, soft in nature, timid, and apparently crushed by the strong personalities of his parents and dominated by his father's policies. He was called "the Bold" on the basis of his abilities in combat and on horseback and not his character. He was pious, but not cultivated. He followed the dictates of others, first of Pierre de la Broce and then of his uncle Charles I of Sicily.

After his succession, he quickly set his uncle on negotiations with the emir to conclude the crusade, while he himself returned to France. A ten-year truce was concluded and Philip was crowned in France on 12 August 1271. On 21 August, his uncle, Alfonso, Count of Poitou, Toulouse, and Auvergne, died returning from the crusade in Italy. Philip inherited his counties and united them to the royal demesne. The portion of the Auvergne which he inherited became the "Terre royale d'Auvergne," later the Duchy of Auvergne. In accordance with Alfonso's wishes, the Comtat Venaissin was granted to the Pope Gregory X in 1274. Several years of negotiations yielded the Treaty of Amiens with Edward I of England in 1279. Thereby Philip restored to the English the Agenais which had fallen to him with the death of Alfonso. In 1284, Philip also inherited the counties of Perche and Alençon from his brother Pierre.

Philip all the while supported his uncle's policy in Italy. When, after the Sicilian Vespers of 1282, Peter III of Aragon invaded and took the island of Sicily, the pope, Martin IV, excommunicated the conqueror and declared his kingdom (put under the suzerainty of the pope by Peter II in 1205) forfeit.

On 28 May 1262, Philip married Isabella of Aragon, daughter of James I of Aragon and his second wife Yolande of Hungary, daughter of Andrew II of Hungary, and had the following children:

Louis (1265 – May 1276). He was poisoned, possibly by orders of his stepmother.

Philip IV (1268 – November 29, 1314), successor as king.

Robert (1269 - 1271).

Charles (March 12, 1270 – December 16, 1325), Count of Valois.

Stillborn son (1271).

After Isabella's death, he married on 21 August 1274, Marie de Brabant, daughter of Henry III of Brabant and Adelaide of Burgundy. Their children were:

Louis (May 1276 – May 19, 1319), Count of Évreux.

Blanca (1278 – March 19, 1305, Vienna), married Rudolf III of Austria on May 25, 1300.

Felipe III el Atrevido
(Felipe III de Francia, llamado el Atrevido; Poissy, 1245 - Perpiñán, 1285) Rey de Francia (1270-1285). Hijo de Luis IX de Francia el Santo y de Margarita de Provenza, continuó la tarea de centralización administrativa iniciada por su padre (Ordenanzas de 1278). Se enfrentó a Pedro el Grande de Aragón por la corona de Sicilia y fue derrotado en el Coll de Panissars (1285), muriendo en la retirada.


Felipe III de Francia

Felipe III participó junto a su padre, el rey Luis IX de Francia, en la VII Cruzada organizada contra Túnez (1270). Muerto Luis IX en el transcurso de la cruzada, Felipe desembarcó en Sicilia y regresó a Francia, donde el 15 de agosto de 1271 fue ungido rey en Reims. Ese mismo año, tras la muerte de su tío Alfonso de Poitiers, esposo de Juana de Toulouse, Felipe III heredó Poitou, Auvernia, Aunis, el norte de Saintonge, el condado de Toulouse y el señorío de Albi. Felipe III de Francia casó en primeras nupcias con Isabel de Aragón (1262), de quien enviudó en 1271, y en segundas con María de Brabante (1274). El gobierno de Felipe III ha sido calificado como continuador de la política administrativa iniciada por su padre, que quedó recogida en las Ordenanzas de 1278.

La muerte de Enrique I el Gordo de Navarra (1274) había provocado una crisis dinástica al haber quedado como única heredera de Champagne y de Navarra su hija Juana, que tenía menos de dos años; su madre, la reina Blanca de Artois, se refugió en Francia en compañía de Juana. En mayo 1275, por el Tratado de Orleáns, Blanca de Artois encomendó a Felipe III de Francia el gobierno del reino de Navarra, a modo de protectorado, como mandatario de la reina Juana según los fueros y costumbres vigentes. Felipe III y Blanca de Artois acordaron el enlace entre los hijos de ambos: al año siguiente se firmaron las capitulaciones matrimoniales entre el hijo y sucesor de Felipe III, Felipe IV de Francia el Hermoso, y la reina Juana I de Navarra (1274-1305).

Los grandes del reino, entre los que se encontraban el gobernador Pedro Sánchez de Monteagudo, aceptaron el pacto, pero como contrapartida solicitaron el respeto de las leyes y fueros navarros. A partir de este momento Felipe III de Francia se hizo cargo del gobierno de Navarra hasta la mayoría de edad de Juana I, su futura nuera. Llegada a la mayoría de edad, en 1284 Juana I contrajo matrimonio, conforme a lo pactado, con Felipe IV, iniciándose en ese momento el reinado de Felipe IV y Juana I en Navarra.

La intromisión de la monarquía capeta en Navarra suscitó, junto a otras causas, la rebelión de los navarros o Guerra de Navarrería (1276). Las divisiones nobiliarias y los enfrentamientos entre los burgos francos de Pamplona, San Cernin y San Nicolás y el barrio de la Navarrería conllevaron la dimisión del gobernador, quien fue substituido por el francés Eustaquio de Beaumarchais; las propias desavenencias entre los burgos trajeron aparejada la reacción por parte de la nobleza contra la política francesa, en la que el gobernador fue cercado.

Ante esta serie de acontecimientos, Felipe III se trasladó al Bearne con el propósito de enviar tropas auxiliares, mandadas por Gastón de Bearne y por el condestable Imbert de Beaujeu; el barrio de la Navarrería quedó destruido y los castillos pasaron a manos francesas. El obispo y el cabildo catedralicio solicitaron a Felipe III una indemnización por el saqueo sufrido por la catedral; el monarca se mostró en principio favorable a tal medida, pero el gobernador Guerin de Amplepuis forzó en 1281 un acuerdo con la Iglesia por el que ésta cedía a la monarquía la mitad de su dominio sobre Pamplona a cambio de dicha indemnización. Sin embargo, los acuerdos de este pacto no fueron aprobados por el pontífice, con lo que no pudieron ponerse en práctica.

La oposición política al régimen francés continuó a través de la Hermandad de las Buenas Villas, constituida en 1276, y de la Junta de infanzones de Obanos (Navarra), que intentó ser disuelta por el gobernador en 1281. En este mismo año se reanudaron las hostilidades con Castilla y Aragón: ambos reinos habían firmado el Tratado de El Campillo, en el que se había fijado la conquista y posterior reparto de Navarra. Sin embargo, la guerra no llegó a desencadenarse, a pesar de que uno de los partidarios de los infantes de la Cerda, el señor de Vizcaya, se había refugiado en Navarra.



Felipe III de Francia secundó las actividades de su tío el rey de Sicilia, Carlos I de Anjou (1266-1282), en contra de Pedro III el Grande de Aragón (1276-1285), y pidió a éste garantías de que no lucharía contra el rey de Sicilia. Esta ayuda quedó reflejada en el envío de tropas a la isla, que desembarcaron en 1282, tras los sucesos de las Vísperas Sicilianas; en la lucha los angevinos fueron vencidos. Junto con el papa Martín IV (1281-1285), quien había desposeído a Pedro III de la investidura de sus dominios en favor de la infeudación de su tercer hijo, Carlos de Valois, Felipe III organizó una expedición para hacer valer tales derechos contra la Corona de Aragón; tal expedición recibió el nombre de la Cruzada contra los Catalanes, y su resultado fue la derrota en 1285 de los navíos franceses por parte del almirante Roger de Lauria.

Felipe III y su tío Carlos de Anjou, tras haber conseguido reunir una hueste numerosa, prepararon la invasión del reino de Navarra; por otro lado, el rey de Mallorca, Jaime II (1276-1311), hermano de Pedro III, pidió ayuda al monarca francés contra todo aquel que quisiera invadir su territorio, lo que quedó patente en 1283 con la firma de una alianza en Carcasona (Francia), en la que se reconocía la condición de subfeudo del señorío de Montpellier. El 10 de agosto se inició el ataque en las Bardenas; sin embargo, la rigurosidad del clima, unido a la fuerte resistencia de las villas fronterizas, frenaron la invasión. Al mismo tiempo, otro destacamento mandado por Eustache de Beaumarchais ocupó el valle de Arán (1283), lugar donde el obispo de Commenge leyó la bula de excomunión de Pedro III.

El enfrentamiento con los aragoneses continuó: las tropas franconavarras saquearon la Val d’Onsella (Huesca, 1283), lo que suscitó la reacción de Pedro III, quien en 1284 asoló la ribera de Tudela (Navarra) y penetró en el Rosellón (Francia) y Ampurdán (Girona, 1285), donde combatió contra el ejército de Felipe III; en junio de 1285, el avance francés fue frenado en el sitio de Girona, y en las proximidades del Coll de Panissars fueron vencidos por los aragoneses. En la retirada, Felipe III murió como consecuencia de una epidemia.
