The "Kingdom of France" (royaume de France) is the name given to various political entities of France in the Middle Ages and Modern times. According to historians, the date of the first "kingdom of France" is associated with one of these three major events: the advent of Clovis in 481, the Treaty of Verdun, and the election of Hugues Capet in 987. The kingdom lasted until 1792, and was briefly restored from 1814 to 1848.
