1032: Rodolphe III of Burgundy (last king of Burgundy) dies without posterity, on September 6, 1032. He had designated his cousin the Germanic emperor Conrad II the Salic as heir. His nephew Eudes II de Blois , son of his elder sister Bertha of Burgundy, raised against Conrad the Salic, the revolt of the feudal lords and prelates of the kingdom of Burgundy. The war of succession of Burgundy (1032-1034) and started is supported by Renaud I st of Burgundy, Count Gerold II Geneva, Archbishop of Vienna, the Bishop of Saint-Jean-de-Maurienne, as well as Archbishop of Lyon, Burchard II, bastard son of Conrad the Pacific and half-brother of Rodolphe III of Burgundy.

In front of them, Conrad the Salique has the support of Héribert, Archbishop of Milan, Marquis Boniface III of Tuscany, Ermengarde, widow of Rodolphe III, and Humbert de Maurienne, former advisor and vassal of Rodolphe III today, better known as Humbert to the White Hands.

Eudes II of Blois is crowned king of Burgundy in Lausanne, by his partisans, but in January 1033, the emperor is also crowned in Basel.

1043: Henry III comes in Besancon, to become engaged to Agnes of Aquitaine , niece of Renaud I st of Burgundy, and daughter of the Duke of Aquitaine, William V Poitiers.
