Everything about Louis Ii Duke Of Bourbon totally explained
Louis II of Bourbon, called
the Good (
1337 –
1410,
Montlucon) was the third
Duke of Bourbon.
Duke Louis is reported to have been mentally somewhat instable, a trait of nervous breakdowns presumably hereditary that showed clearly for example in his sister
Joanna of Bourbon, the queen, and already in their father, Duke Peter, and in their grandfather,
Louis I, Duke of Bourbon.
The teenage Louis inherited the duchy from his father Duke
Peter I after his death in the
Battle of Poitiers in
1356.
On
August 19,
1371, he married Anna of Auvergne (
1358–
1417), Countess of
Forez and a daughter of Beraud II,
Dauphin of Auvergne, and his wife the Countess of
Forez, and they'd four children:
- Catherine of Bourbon (b. 1378), d. young
- John of Bourbon (1381–1434), Duke of Bourbon
- Louis of Bourbon (1388 – 1404), Sieur de Beaujeu
- Isabelle of Bourbon (1384 – aft. 1451)
In
1390, Duke Louis launched a crusade against the
Hafsids of
Tunis, in conjunction with the
Genoese. Its objective was to suppress
piracy based in the city of
Mahdia, but the siege was unsuccessful.
