France, Philip V, 20 November 1316 - 3 January 1322
|France|, |France,| |Philip| |V,| |20| |November| |1316| |-| |3| |January| |1322|, Philip engineered a hasty coronation after the death of his infant nephew, the young John I. Philip took steps to reform the French currency during the course of his reign, including issue of the silver Tournois coins. He pursued a successful diplomatic and dynastic solution to the long running tensions with Flanders. Pope John XXII, initially a close ally of Philip in the late crusading movement in Christian Europe, joined with him in condemning the violent Shepherds' Crusade in 1320. Philip V died from dysentery in 1322 without a male heir and was succeeded by his younger brother Charles IV.
