Yolande of Dampierre

She was first betrothed to Louis of Male, but would end up marrying Henry IV, count of Bar in 1338.

Henry died four years later and Yolande was left with two children, Edward II, duke of Bar (1339-1352) and Robert (1344-1411).

They attacked Yolande, who managed to get them to back down by forming alliances with Philip VI of France and Rudolph, Duke of Lorraine.

Joan of Bar, Robert's grandaunt, made known to the king that she was ready to replace Yolande and assume the regency.

Yolande initially renounced the regency, but then went back on her decision, levying troops to fight Joan.
