Answer

Anne became the Duchess regnant of Brittany at the age of 11, upon her father's passing in 1488. She was the eldest child and only surviving daughter of Duke Francis II and Margaret of Foix. During her reign, Brittany was engaged in a series of conflicts with France, resulting in its eventual union with the French crown through her marriage to King Charles VIII.
