| | French Wars of Religion |
 | | A highly popular and effective ruler, with the Catholic League dissolved, in 1598 Henri IV issued the Edict of Nantes that granted partial religious freedom to the French Protestants. | | | Henri II (1519-1559), a member of the Valois Dynasty, was King of France from 1547 to 1559. | | | The power of the Catholic League was such that King Henri III of France cancelled the treaty and as a result peace lasted only a few months before the civil war continued. |

| | Henry IV of France - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Henry IV was the 9th cousin of King Henry II, and the 9th cousin once removed of kings Francis II, Charles IX, and Henry III. | | | At the death of King Henry III of France, who had no son, the crown passed to Henry IV, in application of the Salic Law, as Henry was the descendant of the eldest surviving male line of the Capetian Dynasty. | | | The new king, however, had to fight for some years to be recognized as the legitimate king of France by the Catholics, most of whom were opposed to his Protestant upbringing. |
