After the death of Richelieu in 1642, Mazarin took his place as first minister of Louis XIII, and then of Louis XIV, when he succeeded to the throne in 1643. Mazarin acted as the head of the government for <a href="/wiki/Anne_of_Austria" title="Anne of Austria">Anne of Austria</a>, the <a href="/wiki/Regent" title="Regent">regent</a> for the young Louis XIV, and was also responsible for the king's education until he came of age. The first years of Mazarin in office were marked by military victories in the <a href="/wiki/Thirty_Years%27_War" title="Thirty Years' War">Thirty Years' War</a>, which he used to make France the main European power and establish the <a href="/wiki/Peace_of_Westphalia" title="Peace of Westphalia">Peace of Westphalia</a> (1646–1648). A major uprising against Anne of Austria and Mazarin, called the <a href="/wiki/Fronde" class="mw-redirect" title="Fronde">Fronde</a> and led by the nobles of the <a href="/wiki/Parlement_of_Paris" title="Parlement of Paris">Parlement of Paris</a>, broke out in Paris in 1648, followed by a second Fronde, led by <a href="/wiki/Louis,_Grand_Cond%C3%A9" title="Louis, Grand Condé">Louis, Grand Condé</a>, who had turned from his chief ally to his chief enemy. Mazarin took Anne of Austria and Louis XIV out of Paris and then shifted his base to Germany for a time. <a href="/wiki/Turenne" class="mw-redirect" title="Turenne">Turenne</a>, a general loyal to Louis XIV and Mazarin, defeated Condé, and Mazarin made a triumphal return to Paris in 1653. </p><p>The last years of Mazarin's life, between 1657 and his death in 1661, were marked by a series of major diplomatic victories. In 1657 he made a military alliance with England. In 1658 he unveiled the <a href="/wiki/League_of_the_Rhine" title="League of the Rhine">League of the Rhine</a>. The same year, Marshal <a href="/wiki/Turenne" class="mw-redirect" title="Turenne">Turenne</a> decisively defeated the army of <a href="/wiki/Louis,_Grand_Cond%C3%A9" title="Louis, Grand Condé">Condé</a> at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_the_Dunes_(1658)" title="Battle of the Dunes (1658)">Battle of the Dunes</a> in Flanders. On 7 November 1659, Spain signed the <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_the_Pyrenees" title="Treaty of the Pyrenees">Treaty of the Pyrenees</a>, which added three new provinces to France. In 1660 Mazarin arranged the marriage of Louis XIV to <a href="/wiki/Maria_Theresa_of_Spain" title="Maria Theresa of Spain">Maria Theresa of Spain</a>, which ended the long and costly wars between the Habsburgs and France. Exhausted by his diplomatic efforts, Mazarin died in 1661. </p><p>Mazarin, as the <i>de facto</i> ruler of France for nearly two decades, played a crucial role in establishing the <a href="/wiki/Westphalian_sovereignty" class="mw-redirect" title="Westphalian sovereignty">Westphalian principles</a> that would guide European states' foreign policy and the prevailing world order. Some of the principles, such as the <a href="/wiki/Nation_state" title="Nation state">nation state</a>'s sovereignty over its territory and domestic affairs and the legal equality among states, have remained the basis of <a href="/wiki/International_law" title="International law">international law</a> to this day. In addition to his diplomacy, Mazarin was an important patron of the arts. He introduced <a href="/wiki/Italian_opera#The_17th_century" title="Italian opera">Italian opera</a> on a grand scale to Paris and assembled a remarkable art collection, much of which today can be seen in the <a href="/wiki/Louvre" title="Louvre">Louvre</a>.

He considered serving the rulers of Savoy, Poland, or Queen Henriette of England, but in the end he decided to enter the service of Richelieu and France. However, Richelieu was in no hurry to bring him to Paris; he valued the diplomatic contributions Mazarin was making in Rome, as well as the art treasures he was acquiring.

All of the King's activities were governed and scheduled by Mazarin; his time of rising, his prayers, his physical exercise (<i>paume</i> fencing, and dance) followed by a morning lesson in politics with Mazarin himself. In the afternoons he was charged to write an essay each day for Mazarin on what he had learned. The education he gave Louis was purely practical, not theoretical. Among other topics, he instructed the King in the fine art of dissimulation, or lying, when needed, and always, when making an agreement, to leave a way out.<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMongrédien1959256–258_60-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMongr%C3%A9dien1959256%E2%80%93258-60"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>58<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Beginning in 1659, as the King reached the age of twenty-one, and Mazarin approached the end of his life, he wrote a series of guidelines in political affairs for the King. When the King set off on his journey to Spain to be married, Mazarin wrote to him: "Remember, I ask you, what I have had the honor to tell you, when you asked me the way to take to become a great King....it is necessary to begin by making the greatest efforts to not be dominated by any passion....because, otherwise, if any misfortune arrives, regardless of what good will you have, you will not be able to do what has to be done."<sup id="cite_ref-FOOTNOTEMongrédien1959260_61-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-FOOTNOTEMongr%C3%A9dien1959260-61"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>59<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Despite Mazarin's instructions, Louis XIV continued to correspond with Mazarin's niece Marie, with the tacit collusion of his mother. Mazarin immediately adopted a stricter tone: "God established Kings...for watching over the well-being, safety and peace of their subjects; and not to sacrifice this well-being and safety for their personal passions...you must remember your responsibilities to God for your actions and for your safety, and to the world for the support of your glory and your reputation." Mazarin also threatened to depart France with his family if the King did not agree to stop communicating with Marie. In response, Louis wrote a new letter to his mother, promising that henceforth he would forget Marie and concentrate exclusively on "the great occupation of King".
