Charles III of France (879-929), King of France (898-922). Called Charles the Simple, he was the posthumous son of King Louis II. Charles claimed the throne after 893, during the reign of Odo, or Eudes, Count of Paris, but was not acknowledged king until 898. His reign was plagued by raids of Scandinavian Vikings, to whom he finally ceded (911) much of what later was called Normandy. Charles was deposed in 922 by his chief vassals and imprisoned in Péronne from 923 until his death.
