Clovis is the ancient version of Louis. Time passed and the "C" faded in time, plus the "V" became "U".
In fact, U and V were written the same for a certain time till U version arrived... like s and f were written f...

Oh ok, merci !
The first president of the French Republic was Louis-Napoléon Bonaparte, nephew of Napoleon I. He staged a coup and became Napoleon III.
It's amazing how France (the territory) evolved from king to king, from the "Francs's Kingdom" to the France we know today !
Posthume means he was baby and died very quickly. He was king only 5 days, just after his father died,
Postume means that he was born after the death of his father.
Très très intéressant ! Ça me reconnecte avec force à mon pays !
C'est une vidéo à montrer en début de chaque année scolaire je trouve !
Avec la musique qui rappelle Gladiator et qui donne de la profondeur aux images defilantes c'est très beau...

c'est pas juste qui rappelle, c'est la musique de Gladiator ;)

Et pour être plus précis encore, ça n'est pas la musique de Gladiator mais une musique de Gladiator...
C'est bon ?
Hello Uncle D,
Most of the French don't know 1/3 of their kings. We know the most important, (Vercingetorix, not really a king but rather a lord Gaulois who succeeded in unifying the Gauls against Caesar and holding on to him but who was defeated at Alésia), Clovis, Charles Martel, Pépin le Bref, Charlemagne (because he was the first emperor of the Franks), Dagobert 1 (especially because of a nursery rhyme that all French children know by heart - “It’s King Dagobert who has put his pants on backwards”), Hugues Capet (because he is the first French pope), Philippe Auguste (because he is the first monarch to be given the title of King of France, the others were called King of the Franks), Saint-Louis (because he was considered a saint during his lifetime), Philippe Le Bel (because of the Templar affair), Louis XI (more mainly because of his famous hat decorated with coins, but also because he disguised himself to mingle with the little people and listen to what was said about him. He was nicknamed “The Spider,” being redoubtable in politics, very patient in achieving his ends and particularly intelligent in foiling the traps of his enemies, his vengeance, most often, was implacable, such as the bishop of Périgueux, the duke of Alençon or even the grand seneschal of Normandy would have been locked up for years in small wooden cages suspended from the ceiling and in which one couldn't stand up, fed on dry bread and water), François The first
(notably because of the famous battle of Marignan in 1515, but also because he installed Leonardo da Vinci at the court of France, considering him his father, the latter also bequeathed him the Mona Lisa, today exhibited at the Louvre Museum, as well as many other works, plans, books, etc.), Charles IX, his brother Henri III, his mother Catherine de Medicis and his sister “The queen Margot” (essentially because of the very famous Saint-Barthélémy Massacre in Paris where thousands of protestants was killed during one night and one day particularly horrible), Henry IV (for the same reason, and because he's a survivor of this terrible massacre, saved by the queen Margot and because he restored peace between Catholics and Protestants in France), Louis XIII (the Bourbon's dynasty), Louis XIV (everybody in the World knows this king and Versailles), Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette (also known worldwide as Louis XIV, but not for the same reasons, lol), Danton, Robespierre, Marat - and maybe Chabot, the fourth character? - in order of appearance in the pic (because they were the principal actors of the French Revolution and finished all to be assassinated or decapitated), Napoleon I (here again, everybody in the world knows Napoleon), Louis XVIII, Charles X, Louis-Philippe I and Napoleon III (for various reasons, but mainly because they were the last short-lived kings and emperors of France before the French Republic was irrevocably established).
Peace, folks. ☮👈😎
It's sad that we know so little about the history of our kings of France, because their history is fascinating, full of battles, plots and murders to monopolize power (How they killed each other between brothers and nephews in the Middle Ages, it's incredible 😮 !!!).
Pétain my king
@@Alix777. Provocation, second degree, or maybe a bit of both?
Et le président Felix Faure pour être décédé en pleine jouissance 😂
It could be Saint-Just.
Yeah 481.
France was already as old as the US are today a millennia ago.
Pépin le Bref literally means Pip the Short.
And no, it is not a coincidence, Pippin was named after him.
kiss from our country, France! hope to see you in the coming days. Love what you do so much, very fun :)
this is unsettling how well you speak french lol
Jean Ier was the son "posthume" (born after the die of his father) et he lived only 5 days !
Chirac was the last president. Since then, the dynasty of clowns started.
It started earlier than Clovis. The 1st dynasty (mérovingiens) is named after Mérovée (around 450). But we can trace the frank kings in the area up until the 3rd century (around 280).
Louis is the "modern" version of Clovis. Clodoveghus (in Germanic) became Clovis, Ludovicus, then Lovis and Louis.
Les prénoms étaient choisis selon les saints sur le calendrier. Il y avait donc beaucoup de gens qui avaient le même prénom. On ajoutais alors un un mot en rapport avec le physique ou la vie de la personne pour la différencier. Par exemple, si il y avait 20 personnes dans le village qui s'appelaient "Guillaume" alors celui qui était boulanger, on le surnommait "guillaume boulanger" ce qui avec le temps donnait par déformation le nom de de famille"Boulanger". Si un "guillaume" dans le village était un peu étrange, alors "guillaume le fou" etc...
Napoleon 3th is the nephew of Napoleon Bonaparte
France exist officially since 843 when the Verdun's treaty formalised the existence of three kingdoms coming from the breaking of Charlemagne's empire between Occidental Francia, Middle Francia ( who ceased fast to exist ) and Eastern Francia who will become Germany. Before that, France was made of several kingdoms hold by the Merovingians.
Merovingians ruled from about 350 to 751 when Childeric III was sent to a monastery with the pope's agreement to let the crown to Pepin, the effective ruler of the kingdom, beginning the Carolingian dynasty.
They ruled from 751 to 987 until the death of Louis V who died at 18 without a son. The throne went to Hugues Capet whom family held more or less the true power in the kingdom in the 8th and 9th century.
The capetians assumed the throne from 987 to 1792 and from 1814 to 1848.
Louis X, father of Jean, died some month before Jean's birth so he became king at his birth. Unfortunately, he died 5 days later and the throne went to Philippe, Louis' brother.
Charles VI was effectively crazy. He became nuts in his 20's by killing some servants when he though they were about to kill him. He recovered somewhat but after he almost died in a real fire things went worst. His uncles were from that day the effective rulers of the kingdom.
During the beginning of the French republic, executive power was held by a comitee for Safety Public. Most of their members were beheaded during and after the Terror era.
Napoleon II died in his 20's in exile and his reign lasted between his fathers's abdication and the coming of Louis XVIII to the throne, about 10 days later. Louis XVII died prisonner at 11 during the Revolution.
Napoleon III was the first elected president of the II republic in 1848. He hold a coup 4 years later because the constitution banned him from being reelected. He became emperor in 1852. He lost his throne in 1870 after he lost the war against Prussia.
Felix Faure is the only president who died at the Elysée. He died from a stroke during a sexual encounter with his mistress. Your Clinton was a joke to compare with ! :)
Paul Deschanel resigned less than a year after his election because he felt he was becoming mentally fragile and insane after he felt from a train during a night travel. After some rest, he became senator.
Paul Doumer was shot during an official visit along side with the yougoslavian king. The murdurer was trialed, sentenced to death and beheaded soon after.
Albert Lebrun was the last president of the III republic and was replaced by Pétain and the French State, a nazi's puppet state. After the war, he tried to finish his mandate but the IV republic was proclamed instead.
Phillip Auguste is the first king we have a somewhat good portrait of his face. Before him, we have no idea of what they could look like. Most of the paints we can see here were made in the XIXe century.
And you're right. We only know few kings among them for a reason or another.
Good explanations but with some mistakes The president of the republic Paul Doumer was not assassinated with the king of Yugoslavia. He was assassinated in 1932 by a white Russian protesting against the recognition of the communist USSR by France. It was the foreign minister Louis Barthou who was assassinated in Marseille in 1934 with King Alexander 1st of Yugoslavia, the first attack by the way film of history. President Sadi Carnot was also assassinated in 1894 by an Italian anarchist;It is also General de Gaulle who holds the record for assassination attempts for a French head of state with 32 assassination attempts that all failed, before King Henry IV (1589-1610) who suffered 25 assassination attempts, the last of which was fatal with Ravaillac’s stab wounds in 1610. It is the king of France Louis XIV who had the longest reign in history attested with more than 72 years of reign from 1643 to 1715, while it is the King of France Louis XIX who had the shortest reign in history barely 5 minutes, the time to sign after his father King Charles X, on August 2, 1830 his act of abdication in favor of his nephew Henry V who will be dethroned after 7 days of reign by his cousin the Duke of Orleans became the 9 August 1830 King Louis-Philippe 1st. Louis XIX and Henri V do not appear on the list when they have in law to reign because the principle of heredity then constitutional made them as heirs of right of the crown kings of France in the event of a vacancy . We can also notice that France had 2 kings called Charles III, Charles III the fat and Charles III the simple . The 1st reign from 884 to 888 and the second from 898 to 929 even if he was dethroned in 923.French historians embarrassed have long presented Charles the fat as a regent during the minority of his nephew Charles III the simple while being crowned king of the francs in Reims he must appear in the list of kings of France. . This peculiarity is due to King Charles V (1364-1380) who was the first to decide to give the numbering of the kings of France but the problem arose with Charles III the fat who when he was elected king of the Franks by the French aristocrats who in 884 his nephew the young Charles the simple because that-He was a minor, and was already the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire. During his reign in the Hundred Years' War, when he fought against the English and the Navarese, King Charles V saw his legitimacy as king of France challenged by foreign kings from their mother’s royal line, King of Navarre Charles II and King of England Edward III, so that to recall the historical precedent of a foreign king having been appointed by the aristocrats to govern the country in place of a French king judged too young was not favorable for his cause. Thus Charles III the Fat disappeared from the list of kings of France and became a simple "regent" during the minority of the young Charles III the Simple. Then when the 3rd Republic was proclaimed in 1870 following the Franco-German war where the new unified German empire had taken from France the provinces of "Alsace-Moselle. It was difficult for the nationalist French republican government partisan of military revenge against the"Germany to explain that a German emperor had also ruled over France, so that Charles III the great emperor of the Holy Roman Empire and king of the Franks was erased from the history books. Another king will also be erased from the tablets of history it will be the cardinal of Bourbon proclaimed king in 1589 by the French Catholics under the name of Charles X after the assassination of King Henry III ;Indeed, the majority of Catholic France does not recognize the king of Navarre Henri de Bourbon as legitimate king of France because he is not only a foreigner (because at that time Navarra was an independent state ) but above all protestant, therefore heretic, whereas the oath of the King’s coronation requires him to fight against heresy in his kingdom and to cast out the heretics, so that Henry of Navarre, a Protestant and therefore heretic, cannot be sanctified. It is the civil war between Catholics and Protestants but the luck of Henry of Navarre is that his cousin the already aged cardinal of Bourbon dies quickly on May 15, 1590 and that the other candidates rivals to the throne have joined his party, namely the Prince of Condé who is also a Protestant and the Prince of Conti who is Catholic but allied with Henry of Navarre. Finally, in 1593, Henry of Navarre decided to renounce his Protestant religion and become a Catholic so that he could be crowned king of France and take the oath of coronation. It’s the formula "Paris is worth a mass"But the edict of tolerance of Nantes in 1598 of king Henri IV granting to his former Protestant coreligionists freedom of worship is considered by the Catholic population as a violation of the oath of his coronation which was to lead him to fight and drive out the Protestant heretics. In this capacity, considered as king perjure to his oath, he will suffer numerous assassination attempts of which the last in 1610 will be fatal .
But upon his accession to the throne in 1593, Henry IV had the dated acts of the reign of Charles X cardinal of Bourbon erased and the coins minted with the effigy of the latter withdrawn , and will date all the acts of August 2, 1589 the date of the death of King Henry III of which he considers himself as the only heir and not from the date of his official coronation in 1594. Thus, long before Stalin had his rivals erased from the official photos and acts of the USSR, Henry IV had Cardinal Charles X erased from official acts and history.There are indeed other heads of state missing as directors like Barras,Sieyes who from 1795 to 1799 exercised power in France on a rotating basis every year when the provisional heads of government under the 2nd Republic between the proclamation of theFebruary and December 1848 date of the election of Louis-Napoleon Bonaparte as president or between September 1870 and August 1871 after the proclamation of the 3rd Republic until the election by the parliamentarians of Adolphe Thiers as president of the The French Republic or the provisional heads of government between 1944 and 1946 or Alain Poher, president of the Senate who constitutionally exercised the functions of the republic on an interim basis in 1969 between the resignation of General de Gaulle and the election of his successor Pompidou, then in 1974 between the death of President Pompidou and the election of his successor Giscard d'Estaing. These provisional rulers were, however, at the origin of important reforms such as in 1944 the introduction of generalized social security in France or the definitive abolition of slavery in the French colonies in 1848 after a first abolition by the committee of public salvation led by Robespierre in 1794.
Bonjour etant francais, la plupar des roi et president, je ne les connais pas, merci de m avoir fait decouvrir ceci, bonsoir^^.
Boujours de la france et merci pour cette video
Ton français est excellent.tu est génial👍
is it not supposed to be spelt "tu es génial" not esT 😊
9:30 the empire of FRANCE! but if all the part is missing in AMERICA "lousiana" etc etc... that Napoleon sold to the Americans!
In fact, Louis the XV sold Lousiana to Spain, Napoleon took it back when he won war against Spain later, and sold it to USA right away to finance its european wars
Petite erreur sous Napoléon Ier et la carte et des colonies d’Amérique
J'adore quand tu parles français, avec l'accent américain c'est very cute!
The golden globe and the scepter held by the King symbolise his God-given powers. The globe is the Earth (yes, no flat earth people in France back then), the physical world, it means that the monarch rules over his land, while the scepter symbolises his power of life and death over his people and the ability to give justice (le bras séculier).
The History of France is very complicated, but very interesting.
La sphère et le sceptre ont été repris par la monarchie anglaise.
Hello
French colonies in America are missing.
French colonization of the Americas began in the 16th century and continued until the 18th century. France built a colonial empire in North America, called New France, stretching from the Gulf of Saint Lawrence to the Rocky Mountains in the west and to the Gulf of Mexico in the south. The French also colonized the Antilles: Santo Domingo, Saint Lucia, Dominica, as well as Guadeloupe and Martinique, still French. In South America, they attempted to establish three colonies, one of which remains, today, Guyana.
During this period of colonization, the French founded, starting in 1608 in Quebec, New France in its "provinces" of Acadia, Canada, the Pays d'en Haut (Great Lakes) and Louisiana, Montreal and Baton Rouge, Detroit, Mobile, New Orleans or St. Louis currently located in the United States; but also elsewhere in North America, including Port-au-Prince and Cap-Haïtien in Haiti; Saint-Louis de Maragnan in Brazil
If you want to learn more, you should read the book series called The Cursed Kings, by Maurice Druon. It shows the succession problems that led to the 100 years war and present some of kings you see here.
Your french is very good!
Louis V le Fainéant (the lazy). 🤣
Frankly i would be so afraid to ruin evrything i would enjoy my life as a king too i think. 😂
I only know the names of those kings who appear often in historic movies :) Clovis I, Charlemagne, Luis the Saint, Luis XIV, XV, XVI, Luis II Auguste, Napoleon, Filip (the one fighting against Templars), Napoleon III, and I read bits and pieces about some of Merovingian and Carolingian dynasties.
Tu parle très bien français 😊 coucou de Normandie (Caen)
I'll have to come back to that and give little trivia because there is much to say about the "nick names" or the change of France size etc etc
Le français est quasiment sans accent! Bravo!
... and the map is incorrect. Brittany was independant and was rattached to France when Anne de Bretagne, last duchess of Brittany, married two kings of France, one after the other, Charles VIII and Louis XII. Normandie was also independant from the 911 to 1315.
Really possible you ignore Charles de Gaulle ? 😮😢

You can react to the natural follow up : election results in france ! (I found Spanish ones, but not english last I checked)
At primary school, we needed to learn about the main kings of France. Your mother surely did. And about Macron, between us, she's right. Faites lui une bise de la part d'un compatriote 😊
Im pretty sure you know louis xiv, louis xvi ( marie antoinette times) and charles de gaulle
Charlemagne, "l'empereur à la barbe fleurie", était en fait imberbe (statuette du Louvre + monnaies).
"One looks Georges Washington?" ahahaha, yeah Robespierre, Good guy, he lost his head, like the other in fact
The first kings wore the regalias (symboles of power): on their head, the crown, in the right hand, the scepter which represents the power and the authority, in the left hand, the globe with a cross, which represents the power of the king on the world and his link with God.
By the way, I know all the French kings of the Capetian dynasty, from 987 to 1848, plus 2 Emperors... 😉
But as for the Presidents, I am not sure at all...
Actually in 1870 starts the third republic. the first one was during the revolution just before Napoleon I and the second one was when Napoleon III hadn't made his coup to be emperor yet, which means 1848-1852
And by the way, the merovingians kings (the first dynasty) were nicknamed "long-haired" a posteriori, and laughed at for that reason ^^
La France est un très vieux pays avec une très longue histoire. Pas comme les Etats Unis, qui sont un pays "jeune".
Please react also to the leaders of Spain of the same chanel❤.
la boule comme tu dis est une " ORBE " tu peux aussi aller jouer a assassin's creed si tu veux pour en savoir plus !
Charles VI was not crazy constantly, he had periods where he could not govern, and then he would be ok again.
La majorité des français détestent Macron, le monde entier déteste Macron (j'aime même entendu un français expatrié en Bulgarie dire que les Bulgares ne l'aimaient pas non plus xD). On arrive pas à s'en débarrasser ...
"Pepin le Bref" it was because he was small 😁😁
Emile loubet (1899-1906) was mayor of Montélimar, my birth city. He is still famous in our department.
the amount of the kings that reigned 10 years or less is amazing. i'm gonna guess they didnt all die of natural causes.
La boule c'est l'Univers du Christ Roi . Bisous
La boule que tiennent la plupart des rois dans leur main symbolise un "empire universel"; la planète quoi. Car oui, déjà à cette époque, on savait que la terre était ronde. Néanmoins, il ne faut pas oublier que la plupart des portraits que l'on voit on été peint au XIXème siècle.
Oh tu connaîtras peut être bientôt Macron pour avoir initié une nouvelle révolution en France ahah
How comes you speak French this good?
My mother is from Lyon - she taught me french before I knew english , but as the years went on - she would speak french to me and I would respond in english lol - so I got VERY VERY rusty
We know about 1 king by century ( the most famous or the one who last long time) and the most recent presidents...
Charles VI le fou, was schizophrenic, but at that time, you know, he was king because of god will. So he stayed king...quite a long time.
the fact he named the Plantagenet king as his successor instead of his own son also helped to win him this nickname...
Charles III le gros, il aimait trop les hamburgers ! 😉
but we had a president who became mad. Paul Deschanel.

Bonjour d’Occitanie (France)
La sphère surmonté d’une croix que tiennent les différents rois est pour symboliser le monde chrétien cela s’appelle « regalia » cela représente le pouvoir spirituel du souverain. Les autres sont l’épée et la couronne. Pour la France il n’est reconnu que 5 Ces Regalia réunissent l'aspect sacré du monarque mais également sa souveraineté : la Couronne, l'épée, la main de justice et le sceptre.
Pour les prénoms, ils avaient des obligations donc les Louis, les Henry, Philippeet très certainement d’autres.
Les français ne connaissent pas tous les rois et présidents qui ont dirigé le pays pour les empereurs il n’y en a que deux donc c’est facile.
3 empereurs avec Charlemagne….😊
@@bcseverac3432 je ne considère pas Charlemagne comme un empereur, même s'il en a le titre

Tu as les mérovingiens, puis les capétien puis les Valois puis les bourbons et après les Orléans.
Et maintenant la république
Et aussi les carolingiens après les mérovingiens et avant les capétiens
Merovingiens, Carolingiens, Capétiens (Valois, Bourbons, Orléans), ces derniers sont aussi techniquement des Capétiens, mais de la lignée indirecte.

A lot of women ruled the country, right? Even if recent years...
What ??
well... how to break it for you (even if your comment is probably ironic): 2 of the 3 daughters in law of Philippe le Bel were caught having affairs and it was then decided that the royal line could only pass by the men of the family... this partly caused the 100 years war btw. That's it for the Monarchy era.
As for the Republics era, well, ever since women have the right of vote and society progressed, let's just say that the few female candidates were not the best fit (I mean, Segolène Royal? com on... and Marine Le Pen being from the far right, it make her unlikely to win). Meanwhile, good fit female were not candidate or never reached concensus in their own party.
in french it is pronounced macronne !! votre Français est excellent !!!!!!
It seems like many huge Americans territories have been forgotten in this. And i would add that indeed Macron is banana and most of us french will remember him as the undertaker of this country.
France exist officially since 843 when the Verdun's treaty formalised the existence of three kingdoms coming from the breaking of Charlemagne's empire between Occidental Francia, Middle Francia ( who ceased fast to exist ) and Eastern Francia who will become Germany.

The capetians assumed the throne from 987 to 1792 and from 1814 to 1848.
Louis X, father of Jean, died some month before Jean's birth so he became king at his birth. Unfortunately, he died 5 days later and the throne went to Philippe, Louis' brother.
Charles VI was effectively crazy. He became nuts in his 20's by killing some servants when he though they were about to kill him. He recovered somewhat but after he almost died in a real fire things went worst. His uncles were from that day the effective rulers of the kingdom.

Napoleon II died in his 20's in exile and his reign lasted between his fathers's abdication and the coming of Louis XVIII to the throne, about 10 days later. Louis XVII died prisonner at 11 during the Revolution.
Napoleon III was the first elected president of the II republic in 1848. He hold a coup 4 years later because the constitution banned him from being reelected. He became emperor in 1852. He lost his throne in 1870 after he lost the war against Prussia.
Felix Faure is the only president who died at the Elysée. He died from a stroke during a sexual encounter with his mistress. Your Clinton was a joke to compare with ! :)

Paul Doumer was shot during an official visit along side with the yougoslavian king. The murdurer was trialed, sentenced to death and beheaded soon after.
Albert Lebrun was the last president of the III republic and was replaced by Pétain and the French State, a nazi's puppet state. After the war, he tried to finish his mandate but the IV republic was proclamed instead.
Phillip Auguste is the first king we have a somewhat good portrait of his face. Before him, we have no idea of what they could look like. Most of the paints we can see here were made in the XIXe century.
And you're right. We only know few kings among them for a reason or another.
I don't care what they say, the 1st king of France is Vercingetorix.
@@quentin6893 It's not. Also as someone from Franche-comté, we (franc-comtois, also sequanes at the time) wheren't under the rule of vercingetorix but allies against the eduen (les ancetres des sales bourguignons! ) and the roman. Vercingetorix ruled the arvernes, not all of the territory today called France.
Some french territory wheren't french until wayyy more time, especialy the one on the border of it. Like my city, Besançon (who did exist at the time of vercingetorix ), wheren't even a part of the franche-comté until the French took it. It was a free-city of the Holy Roman Empire.
Nonetheless, As we say, Comtois-rend toi!.....
Unfortunately Jean 1er pourrait avoir été empoisonné….
