Marie de' Medici (1573–1642)

Queen of France, wife of Henry IV from 1600, and regent (after his murder) for their son Louis XIII. She left the government to her favourites, the Concinis, until Louis XIII seized power and executed them in 1617. She was banished but, after she led a revolt in 1619, Richelieu effected her reconciliation with her son. When she attempted to oust him again in 1630, she was exiled.
