Against whose will did Louis XI marry Charlotte of Savoy?

  • His own

  • Philip the Good's

  • Charles the Bold's

  • His father's

Answer

Louis XI married Charlotte of Savoy against his father's will. Charles VII, the king of France, did not approve of the match because Charlotte was from a minor noble family and not a member of the royal family. However, Louis XI was determined to marry Charlotte and defied his father's wishes. The marriage was eventually approved by the king, but it was not a happy one.
