Bernard VII, Count of Armagnac

[1] He was the son of John II, Count of Armagnac, and Jeanne de Périgord.

When his brother, who claimed the Kingdom of Majorca, invaded northern Catalonia late in 1389 in an attempt to seize the kingdom's continental possessions (the County of Roussillon), Bernard commanded part of his forces.

Bernard's sister Beatrice married Valentina's brother Carlo.

Armagnac became constable of France in 1415, and was the head of the government of the Dauphin, the future Charles VII, until the Burgundians invaded Paris on the night of 28–29 May 1418.

On 12 June 1418, he was one of the first victims of the massacres, in which anywhere between 1,000 and 5,000 of his real or suspected followers were killed over a period of weeks throughout the summer.
