Joan of Navarre (1382 - July 1413, in Béarn) also known as ''Jeanne d'Évreux'' or ''Joanna'' was the eldest child of Charles III of Navarre by his wife Eleanor, daughter of Henry II of Castile. Joan was a member of the French House of Évreux, she was an elder sister to Blanche I of Navarre, Beatrix, Countess of La Marche and Isabella, Countess of Armagnac. Joan was originally betrothed in 1401 to Martin I of Sicily, he was widower of Maria of Sicily, who had not given him surviving children. Plans were however changed and Martin married Joan's sister Blanche.〔(NAVARRE, Medieval Lands )〕 Joan herself married at Olite on 12 November 1402 to John I, Count of Foix. The couple were married for eleven years but failed to produce any children. A month after her wedding, Joan was recognized as heiress to the throne of Navarre at Olite on 3 December 1402; this was after the death of her only surviving brother Louis. She governed Navarre in the name of her parents during their absences abroad. Joan died at Béarn in July 1413, childless. This meant her younger sister Blanche was made heiress to the throne of Navarre, who succeeded on the 8 September 1425. ==Ancestry== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Joan, Heiress of Navarre」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
