He was called “Good King Henry” — the man who ended France’s bloody wars of religion and dreamed of a kingdom united in peace. But on a narrow Paris street in 1610, that dream ended with a knife.
François Ravaillac claimed he acted alone. Yet behind his blade lay decades of fanaticism, pride, and fear — the same forces Henry IV had spent his life trying to calm.
Why would a king who gave his people peace be murdered in the name of faith?
Was Henry IV naïve to believe tolerance could heal a nation built on blood — or was he simply too far ahead of his time?
