Людовик XIII: Король, который уничтожил собственную мать

After the famous Day of the Deceived, Louis XIII made a choice that changed the history of France. His mother, Marie de' Medici, his brother, Gaston d'Orléans, and powerful nobles attempted to break the power of Cardinal Richelieu and reclaim control of the kingdom. But the king, whom many considered weak and indecisive, unexpectedly proved far more dangerous than his enemies. He sent his mother into exile, humiliated his brother, suppressed the aristocratic rebellions, and allowed Richelieu to build a new system of government, one in which the state transcended family, blood, and the old privileges of the nobility. This is the story of how the gloomy and silent Louis XIII cleared the way for the future Sun King, Louis XIV. Not with the splendor of Versailles, but with fear, executions, exile, and cold political will.
