[Br
    Capet, family name of the dynasty of kings that ruled France from 987 to1328. In 987, on the death of Louis V, the last of the Carolingian kingsof France, Hugh Capet, duke of France and count of Paris, was electedking by the nobility and t he clergy. The feudal domain of the Capetfamily was lands.Shortly after Hugh became king, he had his son Robert crowned as RobertII (known as the Pious). Hugh appointed Robert his associate, and thispractice of the father having his eldest son rule with him was followeduntil the late 12th c entury. The greatest of the Capetian kings werePhilip II Augustus, Louis IX (St. Louis), and Philip IV. The dynastysecured direct overlordship of almost all France by the process ofincorporating additional fiefs, large and small, with their ownterritories. In 1328, when Charles IV died without male heirs, theCapetians were succeeded by the Valois, a younger branch of the family,which ruled France until 1589."Capet," Microsoft (R) Encarta.Copyright (c) 1994 Microsoft Corporati on.
