BIOGRAPHY Pierre Goubert: "Taking advantage of the king's youth, the rival clans of his Flemish in-laws and his mother from Champagne tried to dominate him. Philip resisted and found himself obliged to struggle against both of them; fortunately they quarreled among themselves and went home. Three years later, this eighteen-year-old Capetian took advantage of a disputed inheritance in Flanders to impose his arbitration. According to a feudal custom, he granted himself Montdidier and the rich town of Amiens, thus extending the frontiers of his personal territories to the Somme River. These actions were typical of a king who was energetic and shrewd and who knew how to exploit both feudal law and armed force in order to expand his domains and guarantee the obedience of his vassals. Philip II was hardly an attractive character: he was overweight, clumsy, blind in one eye, sneaky, belligerent, and uncultured. Yet he became known as "Augustus" because he was born in August and in time proved himself worthy of this eloquent name. His promary goal was to exalt royal dignity and power by any means, even deceit. His strongest enemy was the powerful Angevin Empire, which stretched from England to the Pyrenees. Philip began his campaign by supporting the rebellious sons of Henry II [our ancestor, #2960] against their father, who died in 1189. Then he feigned friendship toward Henry's successor, the elegant and cultivated Richard the Lion-Hearted [#2963]: together they went on a crusade to recapture the tomb of Christ after it had fallen into the hands of the Infidels. Alas, the two monarchs were complete opposites, fell to quarreling, and soon separated.
