Philip V of France

Philip V (1292 – 3 January 1322) called Philip the Tall (French: le Long), is King of France and Navarre (as Philip II) and Count of Champagne from 1316 to his death, and the second to last of the House of Capet.

Considered a wise and politically astute ruler, Philip takes the throne under questionable circumstances, but he becomes a "strong and popular" king over the course of his reign.

Notable as a prominent figure in the late crusading movement, Philip dies while embroiled in the administrative reform of southern France.
