Years: 863 - 863
Charles of Provence has never ruled his realm in anything more but name.
It is Gerard, rather than he, who in 858 arranged that should Charles die without children, Provence would revert to Charles' brother Lothair II.
When Charles dies in 863, however, his other brother Emperor Louis II also claims Provence, and the realm is divided between the two: Lothair receives the bishoprics of Lyon, Vienne and Grenoble, to be governed by Gerard; Louis II receives Arles, Aix and Embrun.
