France . s. The Barons electedRudolph, Duke of Burgundy, his son-in-law, to reign inhis stead. Charles was seized, and kept in prison tiU hisdeath at Peronne in 929. Rudolph could not make goodhis hold over Lorraine, which passed to Henry I. ofGermany, and became a German duchy. But he forcedthe Normans to do him homage, and extended hisdominions in the south before he died, suddenly and child-less, in 936. Hugh, son of Robert, Count of Paris, seemedhis obvious successor.

Hugh became thereal Regent of the kingdom when Louis was succeededby his son, Lothair (954); for, as if to reward him for notaiming at the kingship, he now received the duchy ofAquitaine also. Lothair was chosen King, and anointedat Rheims, to the exclusion of his younger brother.Thus, the kingship having become elective, the ruinousFrankish custom of dividing the kingdom like a patri-mony amongst the Kings
