What city did Charles I not force into suzerainty?
Paris
Marseille
Arles
Avignon
Answer
Avignon, located in southeastern France, was not subjected to the rule or control of King Charles I. Unlike other cities and regions in France that faced military pressures and capitulated to his authority, Avignon remained independent due to its strategic location on the Rhône River and the influence of the papacy, which held significant power during the 13th century.
