[Timetables of History]

!May have been born at Garonne. Emperor of the West, King of Aquitaine 781, co-regent 813, crowned Emperor at Rheims, 28 Oct 816. [Desc. of Charlemagne]

!The Byzantine Emperor Theophilus addressed a plea to Louis the Pious for aid in the face of Arab raids. [The Oxford History of Medieval Europe]

!When in 817 it was decided the Louis' eldest son Lothar would become emperor on his father's death, and that the two other sons, Louis the German and Pippin of Aquitaine, would be kings within his empire, there was a revolt, led by his nephew, Bernard of Italy, who had not been mentioned in the succession document. This was put down by Louis, who had Bernard blinded. Any discontent that arose could now center around Lothar, who had already been crowned emperor. It came to a head in 822, when Louis was forced to undergo penance and to recall his cousins (who he had banished on his father's death) to court.
But the crucial event was the birth in 823 of a son to Louis' second wife. Louis was determined that this son, Charles the Bald, would share in his inheritance. The three other sons naturally considered any change in the 817 arrangements as an attack on their own position. From the late 820s until the end of his life in 840 Louis was in continual struggle with one or more of his sons, being deposed by a council of bishops at one point. [Oxford History]

!The Latin chronicler calls him "Hludowicus", said to be derived from two Teuton words meaning "famous god of war", not an apt appellation for Louis who would rather go with Sir Priest that Sir Knight. Too gentle and too scrupulous to control his turbulent vassals, most quarrelsome among them his 3 sons, by whom he was twice deposed, to be restored as a relief from their insolence. [Leaders & Landmarks]

!Reigned 814-40, divided the Empire during his lifetime among his three sons, and on the birth of a fourth, Charles the Bald, a new arrangement was made to the disadvantage of the original participants. Civil wars were a consequence. [Leader & Landmarks, Vol. II, p. 232]

!He was born a twin of Lothair, who died on 8 Feb 779. Louis was crowned king of Aquitaine in 781 and remained so until the death of his father in 814 when he became king of France. Following the birth of an illegitimate daughter (Alpais or Elpheid), he married twice and had four sons and two daughters of those unions.

King of Aquitaine (781-814) and emperor of the Western of Carolingian empire (814-40), the son of Charlemagne. His reign was marked by reforms of the Church in collaboration with the monk St. Benedict of Aniane, and for the raids of the Norsemen in the NEW of the empire, especially the Seine and Scheldt basins.
After his death the empire disintegrated while his sons fought for supremacy. [The Cambridge Biographical Encyclopedia, p. 585]
