[The Lemongate]

Wikipedia says this: A war between Rudolph III of Burgundy and his rival, the German Emperor Conrad the Salic in 1032 led to Provence becoming a fiefdom of the Holy Roman Empire, which it remained until 1246.


In fact, before Philippe Auguste II de France, there is no such thing as France, both as a concept or as a political entity. The Kingdom of the Franks is a powerful feudal entity whose power-base is mainly in the north and whose influence waxes and wanes depending on the strength of its ruler, much like the Holy Roman Empire, albeit with a different form of political structure.
