What Is The Impact Of Iv

What was Henry IV of France's impact on Europe?

By ending the French Wars of Religion, Henri introduced religious and political stabiklity to France, something that had been absent for 40 years.

This left France free to build up its internal strength,become a major international force again, and begin the process which would see it replace Spain as the dominant European power in the second half of the 17th century.

What impact does the favourite civic have in Civ iv?

If it is otherwise advantageous for you to adopt the same civic as a given leader's favorite civic, then your adoption of that civic will improve diplomatic relations with that leader, enhance your favorability score with that leader, and make it more likely that leader will trade and form alliances with you. To fully benefit from commonality of civics, however, the other leader must currently be operating at the same civic level as you.

Strategically, if a leader pops up requesting that you change to his favorite civic, your favorability will gain by a point or 2 if you agree, and drop a point or two if you refuse. Likewise, if you want to curry the favor of a specific nation, then you are likely to succeed if you change to the leader's favorite civics.

What were some bad facts about King Henry IV of France (King Henry III of Navarre)?

He smelled (he loved to eat raw garlic and had a dislike of bathes) and he had a fondness for women that earned him the nickname of the ‘Vert Galant’, the vigorous and eager amorous man.His weakness was women. He had many mistresses and they (and their families) diverted a lot of money their way.His back and forth between the catholic and protestant religion was due to the time and his history. He was born catholic, his mother made him a protestant when he was a child. He went through a very bloody religious war. When he received the crown of France and realised that he was going to start another religious war if he stayed protestant he became catholic.He was hated by many of his nobles for many reasons - political, religious… - but generally loved by the people. His murderer was probably manipulated by the Jesuits (at the time agents of the Spanish King).

Which monarch had the greatest impact on their country?

This is a matter of opinion. Frederick II (Der Grosse) took the minor Kingdom of Prussia and set it on course to be the greatest land military power in the world within a century of his death.

He was not by nature a warlike man. He realized that with Russia to the east Austria to the south and France to the west, Prussia and the other German states had to get strong and united or be the doormat of other great powers.

He was also a pretty decent musician, by the account of his court Kapellmeister CPE Bach.
