Henri de Bourbon, now effective leader of the French Huguenots, inherits the throne of Navarre upon the death of his mother, Jeanne d'Albret.
He weds, on August 18, 1572, nineteen-year-old Marguerite de Valois, the youngest daughter of Henri II of France and Catherine de Médicis, and sister of the late French king Francis II and the currently reigning Charles IX, in order to strengthen the peace between the nation’s Huguenots and Roman Catholics.
