Philip V of France
Philip V (French: Philippe le Long; 1292 – 3 January 1322), the Tall, was King of France and, as Philip II, King of Navarre and Count of Champagne. He reigned from 1316 to his death and was the penultimate monarch of the House of Capet. Considered a wise and politically astute ruler, Philip took the throne under questionable circumstances, but he became a "strong and popular" king over the course of his reign. Notable as a prominent figure in the late crusading movement, Philip died while embroiled in the administrative reform of southern France.
