History Assignment

Hi, My name is Francis 1. I was born on September 4, 1494, in Cognac, France. I lived in Fontainebleau. I was the son of Charles of Angoulene and Louis of Savory. And I married Claude who was the daughter of Anne of Brittany. I was taken hostage by Charles V in a war, and one year later I was released. I was very lucky! But I died on March 13, 1547, in Rambouillet.Oh! So, that is a pity. But I was worthy in my life.

People think I was vigorous, sensual, generous and cultivated.

I was a Renaissance politician. In my daily life, I helped people who need my help and have talent, and that talent can assist the society a lot. It helps the society to improve well.

In my whole life, I did a lot of accomplishments, such as; I brought Guillaume Bude a humanist, Raphael, Titian and Michelangelo to his court. They were the famous artists in later time. If I didn't help them, I think, they won't have their careers. I also brought Andre del Sarto to spend a year in France. I brought Leonardo de Vinci to teach.

I also bred Leonardo de Vinci. I freed Florentine Benvenuto Cellini and brought him to my school too. I did lots of accomplishments in my life, really. People in my period all adored me very much. I was proud of myself. I did great things. I allowed the Renaissance to flourish during his reign.

I think I'm the best successful politician in the Renaissance time!

I felt worthy after helping people to become famous people. And I felt regret when I died in 53 years old, which is a golden age for me to develop my career. Unfortunately, it happened. So, I can't help anyone after I'm living in heaven, or hell. But I hope my posterity can continue and succeed to what I did in my whole life.
