Discover the origins of the French monarchy with this French listening practice episode! In today’s podcast, we talk about Hugues Capet (987), known as the first king of the Capetian dynasty. At the time, he was not yet called “King of France” but rather King of the Franks, ruling over the kingdom of Western Francia. This short history capsule explains who he was, why his reign is so important, and even a fun fact: the King of Spain and the Grand Duke of Luxembourg are still Capetians today!
