Louis XIV


Born
in Saint-Germain-en-Laye, France
September 05, 1638

Died
September 01, 1715


A magnificent court, the expansion of influence in Europe, and the establishment of overseas colonies characterized the longest reign of Louis XIV, known as the Great and the Sun King in history of France from 1643; he waged three major wars and in 1685 revoked the edict of Nantes and thus caused thousands of Huguenots to leave.
