Anjou (French pronunciation: [ɑ̃ʒu]; Latin: Andegavia) is a former French county (in that it was ruled by a count, from c. 880), duchy (1360), and province. Its capital was the city of Angers in the lower Loire Valley. The territory has no very clear geographical borders but instead owes its territory and prominence to the fortunes of its various rulers.
Henry "Curtmantle", count of Anjou, inherited the kingdom of England on October 25, 1154, becoming Henry II. The resulting Angevin Empire would, at its peak, spread from Ulster to the Pyrenees. Henry's son Richard I had no legitimate issue upon his death, so in 1199 Anjou passed to his nephew, Arthur of Brittany (the posthumous son of Henry II’s fourth son Geoffrey), while the Crown of England passed to Henry II’s fifth son and Richard’s youngest brother, John. Count Arthur was taken prisoner by his uncle the king in 1203 and disappeared under suspicious circumstances. In 1205, the county was seized by Philip II Augustus of France. Its status was elevated to that of a duchy for Prince Louis, the second son of Jean II and remained as such until the Revolution. Anjou corresponds largely to the present-day department of Maine-et-Loire.
The Count of Anjou was the ruler of the county of Anjou, first granted by Charles the Bald in the 9th century to Robert the Strong. Ingelger and his son were viscounts of Angers until Ingelger's son Fulk the Red assumed the title of Count of Anjou. The Robertians and their Capetian successors were distracted by wars with the Vikings and other concerns, and were unable to recover the county until the reign of Philip II Augustus more than 270 years later.
Ingelger's male line ended with Geoffrey II, Count of Anjou. Subsequent counts of Anjou were descended from Geoffrey's sister Ermengarde of Anjou and Geoffrey II, Count of Gâtinais. Their agnatic descendants, who included the Angevin kings of England, continued to hold these titles and property until the French monarchy gained control of the area. Thereafter the titles Count of Anjou and, after 1360, Duke of Anjou were granted several times, usually to members of the French ruling houses of Valois and Bourbon.
Similar to the title of Duke of York in England, none of those who received the title Duke of Anjou (except the first creation), were able to transmit it; they either died without a male heir, returned it to the crown, or succeeded to the throne.

A very dubious interpretation of the Duc of Anjou and Elizabeths' meeting. Elizabeth (1998)
Second part to the Elizabeth 1998 film again very dubious with transvestite elements of the Duvc of Anjou which was in fact the younger brother. Elizabeth was nearly twenty years older than the flamboyant, bisexual transvestite Duke of Anjou, and they never met in person. He went on to become King Henry III of France, and his younger brother became Duke of Anjou. It was this Duke that Elizabeth met, and they actually got along very well and even talked about getting married.

Newly crowned Queen of England, Elizabeth meets a prospective suitor: the Duque du Anjou. The composition played by Anjou's minstrels does not feature in the official soundtrack and it's not listed in the end credits, so it may have been an incidental piece of music just for this scene. * No profit is being made for this, just thought of sharing something beautiful. Video reversed. Purchase the movie for more beautiful music and excellent costumes.

Louis Alphonse, Duc d'Anjou, recognized by French royalists of the 'legitimist' persuasion as "King Louis XX of France". One of two claimants to the throne of the late Kingdom of France. Born in Madrid, the prince currently lives in New York with his wife, Princess Maria Margarita and three children; Princess Eugenie, Prince Louis and Prince Alphonse.
On the 224th anniversary of the execution of King Louis XVI, French royalists gathered Saturday on Place de la Révolution (now Place de la Concorde) to commemorate his death. And in the Basilica of St-Denis, Prince Louis-Alphonse de Bourbon, the Duke of Anjou and descendant of the French kings, attended a Requiem Mass with his wife, Princess Marie-Marguerite. The Requiem Mass was for the repose of the souls of the late King Louis XVI of France and Queen Marie Antoinette, both victims of the fury of the French Revolution.

*Note that the next vlog will be around 03 March 2017. As a stock travel and landscape photographer the need for me to explore is embedded within. To discover new places and capture them in the best way that I can. On Sunday 19th February 2017 my photography took me to the Pays de la Loire and Indre-et-Loire in central France. I had two targets in mind. The first was a dawn shoot at Saumur to capture the château reflecting in the river Loire. The second target was to capture the château at Chinon at sunset.

Travel video about destination Trnava in Slovakia. Trnava, in south west Slovakia, is well-protected by a three kilometre-long city wall. Under the protection of the sturdy wall, the monastery and church of Holy Jakobus were created in the fourteenth century with the support of the House Of Anjou. The monastery complex was then considered to be one of the largest religious buildings in the country and served as a place in which God could unite the world. The new city centre contains an imposing Neo-Classical theatre and a tower that was built in 1574. From a height of twenty-nine metres, those in the watchtower were able to warn of any threat of fire. The Jewish synagogue was built in 1831, badly damaged during the Second World War and then neglected for several decades. It now contains...

One of the most interesting places to visit during the Naples Underground tours is the beautiful Franciscan Gothic Church of San Lorenzo Maggiore, which is one of the city's most important religious buildings; it was founded around 1300 at the behest of Charles I of Anjou and his successors, and was erected on the remains of Roman structures. The site of the church corresponds to the ancient main square of the Greek city and to the Roman Forum, at the intersection between the two main roads that intersected at right angles and formed the heart of the urban agglomeration. Above ground you can still see the columns of the Temple of the Dioscuri, which are now located in front of the Church of San Paolo Maggiore's façade… Visit the MyWoWo page dedicated to this wonder: https://mywowo.net/en...
