Bourges, treaty of
Bourges, treaty of, 1412. This agreement between Henry IV, king of England, and a group of French lords headed by the duke of Orléans arose out of the French civil war. In return for Henry's aid against the Burgundians, Orléans was prepared to accept English claims to sovereignty over the duchy of Aquitaine. Henry duly dispatched an army of 4,000 under his second son, Thomas, duke of Clarence, in July 1412, but as the Orléanists had meanwhile come to a temporary peace with Burgundy, the terms of the treaty were never fulfilled.
