Clovis IV

king of the Franks
Years: 682 - 695

Clovis IV (sometimes Clovis III if the other Clovis III is considered a usurper) (682–95), son of Theuderic III, is the sole king of the Franks from 691 until his death.

Although Clovis IV is called "King of the Franks", he wis really a puppet—a roi fainéant—of his uncle Pepin II, mayor of the palace of Austrasia.

He assumes the throne at the age of nine and dies when he is only thirteen.
