This is the first in a series of five episodes regarding Louis the Sun King. This episode serves to establish the France that he will inherit. It begins by looking at the rise and reign of Henry IV with a particular focus regarding the Protestant vs Catholic skirmishes situated around his wedding. Then we'll examine the debauched life of Louis XIII and the rise of his top advisor Cardinal Richelieu. It was during this time that the basis for absolute rule was established within the French kingdom.
