Chapter 5
On 1200, Constance of Brittany would give birth to another son, named Conan with her husband Guy of Thouars preventing the annexation of Brittany to France.
The son would ensure that Brittany would be an independent player between England and France, however the marriage of his sister would help Brittany in the long run as the regency of Brittany since the death of Duke Arthur is good to France, his sister’s country and a betrothal between Princess Berengaria of Portugal and Conan V of Brittany is made with the suggestion of Queen Ingeborg of France to her estranged husband Philippe II instead of Princess Marie of France who she treated as a bastard of the King’s chosen bride, Conan V and Berengaria would have three children namely, John(1218), Berengaria(1220) and Arthur(1223).
Another shenanigan that Ingeborg would approve is the marriage between her brother, Valdemar to Marie of France as she would consider it as a settlement for her being humiliated by her husband, Marie of France would be known as a dutiful bride to her husband.
