Francis I of France and the Emperor Charles V sign the Treaty of
Cambrai, by which France renounces all claims to Italy and
sovereignty over Flanders and Artois; Charles renounces his claim
to Burgundy. Francis undertakes to marry Eleanor of Portugal,
recognises Charles' right to the succession in Gelders, surrenders
Tournai and pays 2 million crowns. This, 'The Ladies Peace',
confirms Spanish rule in Italy.
