Louis D'Outremer", (Louis from Overseas),
also called Louis IV "Transmarinus" .
During father Charles III "the Simple"'s struggle with Hugh the Great, Ogive (Eadgifu) daughter of Saxon Kind Edward took Louis to England. Recalled to France in 936, crowned June 19 at Laon.
Louis IV, in German, Ludwig IV, called The Bavarian (1287?-1347), Holy Roman emperor (1314-47) and king of Germany (1314-47), son of Louis II, duke of Bavaria (1228-1294). Louis IV warred with Frederick III, called the Fair, a rival candidate for the imperial crown, from 1314 to 1322, and then until 1326 with Leopold I, Frederick's brother, also a rival emperor. Pope John XXII refused to crown Louis IV and excommunicated him in 1324. Louis invaded Italy in 1327, occupied Rome from 1327 to 1330, and secured his coronation in 1328 from Nicholas V, whom he proclaimed pope in 1328. Nicholas abdicated as antipope in 1330. During the series of armed conflicts that began in 1337 between England and France, called the Hundred Years' War, Louis at first sided with England but later aided France. In 1338 the electoral princes of the Holy Roman Empire declared that emperors no longer needed papal confirmation of their election. He was succeeded as Holy Roman emperor by Charles IV of the house of Luxembourg.
