Simon II, Duke of Lorraine
text:
Simon II was the Duke of Lorraine from 1176 to 1205. He was the son and successor of Matthias I and Bertha, daughter of Frederick II, Duke of Swabia. His mother wished for her second son, Frederick, to succeed and so Simon was forced to convene an assembly of the nobles to confirm his succession. He was in turn forced to recognise certain feudal privileges and create the Estates of Lorraine, a form of parliament. He also gave Bitche as an appanage to Frederick who was not satisfied and revolted
