Notes - Robert II (of France), called Robert the Pious (972-1031), king of France (996-1031), the son of King Hugh Capet, born in Orléans, and educated at Reims under the French scholar Gerbert, who later became Pope Sylvester II. In 996 Robert married, as his second wife, his cousin Bertha of Burgundy. Two years later Pope Gregory V excommunicated him and annulled this marriage, which was considered incestuous by the church; in 1003 Robert submitted to the pope and married the daughter of the marquis of Provence, Constance of Arles, by whom he had four sons. He recognized Hugh, the eldest of these sons, as his successor. After Hugh's death in 1025, the other sons, aided by their mother, revolted; Robert was still fighting them at the time of his own death. Robert was called The Pious because of his humility and charity; he was also esteemed as a soldier and ruler.
BIOGRAPHY: 9th gen. desc. of Char lemagne BIOGRAPHY: Believed to have married Bertha of Burgundy, widow of count Eudes I of Chartes. If so, he probably married her after 1003 and married Constance of Toulouse about 1010. In this case, the children of Robert II are not associated with the proper mother. More research is needed here. BIOGRAPHY: King of France 996/103 1 BIOGRAPHY: Orleans- city in north central France, capitlal of Loiret Department, on the Loire River. It is a transportation and commercial center. Major manufactures include chemicals, processed foods, textiles, and machinery. Tourism is also important to the city's economy; the Sainte-Croix Cathedral, destroyed by the Huguenots (French Protestants) in 1567 and rebuilt by Henry IV and his successors, is a principal attraction. The University of Orleans is in the city.
