Wedding of Philip IV & Joan of Burgundy

Marriage

2039AUC

Philip IV marries Joan of Burgundy. Joan is Duchess of Burgundy, and though part of greater Francia, administration of the Duchy of Burgundy has been unclear since the death of Joan's father, Jean I.   The resulting agreement between Francia and Burgundy is considered the birth of the modern Burgundian domain. Joan is now, awkwardly, her husband’s vassal. However, it is an exceedingly happy marriage and in practice does not present challenges for the couple.
