Notes 
Individual:
CHARLES V, son of John II & ?, ruled 1364-1380, was the son of John II and was regent during John's captivity (1356-1360,64) in England. As regent Charles dealt with the Jacquerie and the reformist movement of Etienne Marcel. During his reign hi
s general Bertrand Du Guesclin nearly drove the English out of Frnce. With his ministers, Charles strengthened royal power, founded a standing army, reformed taxation, and patronized the arts - Encyclopedia, 157

CHARLES V (born 1337, ruled 1364-80) was called Charles the Wise. He and his two immediate successors, also named Charles, reigned during the Hundred Years' War with the English (see Hundred Years' War). He was not himself a good warrior becaus e of his poor health, but with the aid of his general Bertrand du Guesclin, he succeeded in driving the English almost completely out of France - Excerpted from Compton's Interactive Encyclopedia, Copyright c 1994, 1995 Compton's NewMedia, Inc.Charles the Wise - FRANCE.SOV (Compuserve)
