John was appointed <a href="/wiki/Lord_of_Ireland" class="mw-redirect" title="Lord of Ireland">Lord of Ireland</a> in 1177 and given lands in England and on the continent. He unsuccessfully attempted a rebellion against the royal administrators of his brother, King Richard I, while Richard was participating in the <a href="/wiki/Third_Crusade" title="Third Crusade">Third Crusade</a>, but he was proclaimed king after Richard died in 1199. He came to an agreement with Philip II of France to recognise John's possession of the continental Angevin lands at the peace <a href="/wiki/Treaty_of_Le_Goulet" title="Treaty of Le Goulet">treaty of Le Goulet</a> in 1200. When war with France broke out again in 1202, John achieved early victories, but shortages of military resources and his treatment of <a href="/wiki/Normans" title="Normans">Norman</a>, <a href="/wiki/Bretons" title="Bretons">Breton</a>, and <a href="/wiki/County_of_Anjou" title="County of Anjou">Anjou</a> nobles resulted in the <a href="/wiki/Invasion_of_Normandy_by_Philip_II_of_France" title="Invasion of Normandy by Philip II of France">collapse of his empire in northern France</a> in 1204. He spent much of the next decade attempting to regain these lands, raising huge revenues, reforming his armed forces and rebuilding continental alliances. His judicial reforms had a lasting effect on the <a href="/wiki/English_common_law" class="mw-redirect" title="English common law">English common law</a> system, as well as providing an additional source of revenue. His dispute with <a href="/wiki/Pope_Innocent_III" title="Pope Innocent III">Pope Innocent III</a> over the election of <a href="/wiki/Archbishop_of_Canterbury" title="Archbishop of Canterbury">Archbishop of Canterbury</a> <a href="/wiki/Stephen_Langton" title="Stephen Langton">Stephen Langton</a> led to the <a href="/wiki/Papal_interdict_of_1208" class="mw-redirect" title="Papal interdict of 1208">Papal interdict of 1208</a> as well as John's <a href="/wiki/Excommunication" title="Excommunication">excommunication</a> the following year, a dispute he finally settled in 1213. John's attempt to defeat Philip in 1214 failed because of the French victory over John's allies at the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Bouvines" title="Battle of Bouvines">Battle of Bouvines</a>. When he returned to England, John faced a rebellion by many of his barons, who were unhappy with his <a href="/wiki/Fiscal_policies" class="mw-redirect" title="Fiscal policies">fiscal policies</a> and his treatment of many of England's most powerful nobles. Magna Carta was drafted as a peace treaty between John and the barons, and agreed in 1215. However, neither side complied with its conditions and civil war broke out shortly afterwards, with the barons aided by <a href="/wiki/Louis_VIII_of_France" title="Louis VIII of France">Prince Louis of France</a>. It soon descended into a stalemate. John died of <a href="/wiki/Dysentery" title="Dysentery">dysentery</a> contracted while on campaign in eastern England during late 1216; supporters of his son <a href="/wiki/Henry_III_of_England" title="Henry III of England">Henry III</a> went on to achieve victory over Louis and the rebel barons the following year. Contemporary chroniclers were mostly critical of John's performance as king, and his reign has since been the subject of significant debate and periodic revision by historians from the 16th century onwards. Historian <a href="/wiki/Jim_Bradbury" title="Jim Bradbury">Jim Bradbury</a> has summarised the current historical opinion of John's positive qualities, observing that John is today usually considered a "hard-working administrator, an able man, an able general".<a href="#cite_note-Bradbury_2007,_p._353-4">[3]</a> Nonetheless, modern historians agree that he also had many faults as king, including what historian <a href="/wiki/Ralph_H._Turner" title="Ralph H. Turner">Ralph Turner</a> describes as "distasteful, even dangerous personality traits", such as pettiness, spitefulness, and cruelty.<a href="#cite_note-5">[4]</a> These negative qualities provided extensive material for fiction writers in the <a href="/wiki/Victorian_era" title="Victorian era">Victorian era</a>, and John remains a recurring character within Western popular culture, primarily as

In order to remarry, John first needed to abandon his wife Isabella, Countess of Gloucester; the King accomplished this by arguing that he had failed to get the necessary <a href="/wiki/Papal_dispensation" class="mw-redirect" title="Papal dispensation">papal dispensation</a> to marry the Countess in the first place—as a cousin, John could not have legally wedded her without this. It remains unclear why John chose to marry Isabella of Angoulême. Contemporary chroniclers argued that John had fallen deeply in love with her, and John may have been motivated by desire for an apparently beautiful, if rather young, girl (Isabella of Angoulême was either 12 or 14 at the time of their marriage).<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP98-65">[62]</a> On the other hand, the Angoumois lands that came with her were strategically vital to John: by marrying Isabella, John was acquiring a key land route between Poitou and Gascony, which significantly strengthened his grip on Aquitaine.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a><a href="#cite_note-71">[nb 5]</a> Isabella, however, was already engaged to <a href="/wiki/Hugh_IX_of_Lusignan" title="Hugh IX of Lusignan">Hugh IX of Lusignan</a>, an important member of a key Poitou noble family and brother of <a href="/wiki/Raoul_I,_Count_of_Eu" class="mw-redirect" title="Raoul I, Count of Eu">Raoul I, Count of Eu</a>, who possessed lands along the sensitive eastern Normandy border.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP98-65">[62]</a> Just as John stood to benefit strategically from marrying Isabella, so the marriage threatened the interests of the <a href="/wiki/Lusignans" class="mw-redirect" title="Lusignans">Lusignans</a>, whose own lands currently provided the key route for royal goods and troops across Aquitaine.<a href="#cite_note-72">[67]</a> Rather than negotiating some form of compensation, John treated Hugh "with contempt"; this resulted in a Lusignan uprising that was promptly crushed by John, who also intervened to suppress Raoul in Normandy.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> Although John was the Count of Poitou and therefore the rightful feudal lord over the Lusignans, they could legitimately appeal John's actions in France to his own feudal lord, Philip.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> Hugh did exactly this in 1201 and Philip summoned John to attend court in Paris in 1202, citing the Le Goulet treaty to strengthen his case.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> John was unwilling to weaken his authority in western France in this way. He argued that he need not attend Philip's court because of his special status as the Duke of Normandy, who was exempt by feudal tradition from being called to the French court.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> Philip argued that he was summoning John not as the Duke of Normandy, but as the Count of Poitou, which carried no such special status.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> When John still refused to come, Philip declared John in breach of his feudal responsibilities, reassigned all of John's lands that fell under the French crown to Arthur—with the exception of Normandy, which he took back for himself—and began a fresh war against John.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP99-69">[65]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Loss_of_Normandy,_1202–1204">Loss of Normandy, 1202–1204</h3></div> <link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1236090951"><div role="note" class="hatnote navigation-not-searchable">Main article: <a href="/wiki/Normandy_campaigns_of_1200%E2%80%931204" class="mw-redirect" title="Normandy campaigns of 1200–1204">Normandy campaigns of 1200–1204</a></div> <figure typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:1202_French_campaign.svg" class="mw-file-description"><noscript><img alt="A map of France showing John's bold sweep towards Mirebeau with a red arrow." src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/37/1202_French_campaign.svg/275px-1202_French_campaign.svg.png" decoding="async" width="275" height="309" class="mw-file-element" data-file-width="757" data-file-height="850"></noscript><span class="lazy-image-placeholder" style="width: 275px;height: 309px;" data-src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/37/1202_French_campaign.svg/275px-1202_French_campaign.svg.png" data-alt="A map of France showing John's bold sweep towards Mirebeau with a red arrow." data-width="275" data-height="309" data-srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/37/1202_French_campaign.svg/413px-1202_French_campaign.svg.png 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/3/37/1202_French_campaign.svg/550px-1202_French_campaign.svg.png 2x" data-class="mw-file-element"> </a><figcaption>John's successful 1202 campaign, which culminated in the victory of the <a href="/wiki/Battle_of_Mirebeau" title="Battle of Mirebeau">battle of Mirebeau</a>; red arrows indicate the movement of John's forces, blue those of Philip II's forces and light blue those of Philip's Breton and Lusignan allies</figcaption></figure> John initially adopted a defensive posture similar to that of 1199: avoiding open battle and carefully defending his key castles.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP100-73">[68]</a> John's operations became more chaotic as the campaign progressed, and Philip began to make steady progress in the east.<a href="#cite_note-TurnerP100-73">[68]</a> John became aware in July that Arthur's forces were threatening his mother, Eleanor, at Mirebeau Castle.

This is conventionally interpreted as implying that she was having an affair with the King but in this case wished to have sex with her husband instead – thus the humorous fine.
