Question

One “alien king” of this name was able to come to a tentative agreement with the nobles of the region he ostensibly ruled with the so-called “inaugural diplomas.” An exiled knight offered an axe-wielding king with this name the option to surrender after the king’s helmet fell off. Another ruler of this name failed to relieve a siege at the Château Gaillard (“shah-TOH guy-YAHR”)after a bungled synchronized land–sea campaign. A ruler of this name from the House of Luxembourg suffered from ophthalmia until his 1346 (10[1])death. The Jacquerie occurred under a king of this name, whose capture (-5[1])resulted in a large ransom payment in the Treaty of Brétigny (“bray-teen-YEE”). A blind Bohemian king who died at Crécy had this name, as did a king who lost the First Barons’ War and signed an agreement at Runnymede in 1215 that limited royal taxes. For 10 points, give the name of (10[1])the English king who signed the Magna Carta. (10[1])■END■
