The Duke of Aquitaine (Occitan:Duc d'Aquitània, French:Duc d'Aquitaine, IPA:[dyk dakitɛn]) was the ruler of the ancient region of Aquitaine (not to be confused with modern-day Aquitaine) under the supremacy of Frankish, English, and later French kings.
As successor states of the Visigothic Kingdom (418–721), Aquitania (Aquitaine) and Languedoc (Toulouse) inherited both Visigothic laws and Roman Law, which together allowed women more rights than their contemporaries would enjoy until the 20th century. Particularly under the Liber Judiciorum as codified 642/643 and expanded by the Code of Recceswinth in 653, women could inherit land and title and manage it independently from their husbands or male relations, dispose of their property in legal wills if they had no heirs, represent themselves and bear witness in court from the age of 14, and arrange for their own marriages after the age of 20. As a consequence, male-preference primogeniture was the practiced succession law for the nobility.
There are traces of human settlement by prehistoric peoples, especially in the Périgord, but the earliest attested inhabitants in the south-west were the Aquitani, who were not proper Celtic people, but more akin to the Iberians (see Gallia Aquitania). Although a number of different languages and dialects were in use in the area during ancient times, it is most likely that the prevailing language of Aquitaine during the late pre-historic to Roman period was an early form of the Basque language. This has been demonstrated by various Aquitanian names and words that were recorded by the Romans, and which are currently easily readable as Basque. Whether this Aquitanian language (Proto-Basque) was a remnant of a Vasconic language group that once extended much farther, or whether it was generally limited to the Aquitaine/Basque region is not known. One reason the language of Aquitaine is important is because Basque is the last surviving non-Indo-European language in western Europe and it has had some effect on the languages around it, including Spanish and, to a lesser extent, French.
The Aquitaine was an express train that linked Bordeaux and Paris, France, between 1971 and about 1990. Operated by the Société Nationale des Chemins de fer français (SNCF), it was a first-class-only Trans Europ Express (TEE) until 1984 and then a two-class Rapide until discontinued, circa 1990.
The train was named after the region of Aquitaine, of which Bordeaux is the capital.
Route
Core route
The Aquitaine's core route was the 584km (363mi) long Paris–Bordeaux railway. Initially, the train ran non-stop, but by the time it was discontinued, it had the following stops:
Starting in late 1984, the Aquitaine's northbound route was extended to start in Hendaye on Mondays only (except holidays). On other operating days, Tuesdays through Fridays, the train still started in Bordeaux. Southbound trips continued to terminate in Bordeaux on Mondays through Thursdays, but on Fridays (except holidays) were extended to Pau, and in autumn 1986 extended farther, to Tarbes (still on Fridays only).

This argument ended with an annulment of the marriage, and two months later, Eleanor married Henry II, son of the king of England. She bore him five children, three of which were sons, but Henry wasn’t loyal to his wife and openly had relationships with other women.
Enraged by this, Eleanor convinced her sons to rebel against their father, and Henry imprisoned her for 16 years as a consequence.
She was freed by her son Richard the Lionheart, the new king of England. When Richard left for the Third Crusade, Eleanor acted as a queen regent in his absence.
She died at the age of 82, outliving most of her children.

Eleanor was the heir of William X, the duke of Aquitaine, which is almost a third of today’s France and was a lot larger than the king’s territory. After the death of her father, Eleanor married Prince Louis, who became king after the death of King Louis the Fat.
The Pope ordered for the Second Crusade to begin and wanted the new King Louis to command it. Louis accepted and Eleanor decided to come with her husband. During the crusade, Eleanor was influenced by her uncle and argued with the king about what territories they should attack.
This argument ended with an annulment of the marriage, and two months later, Eleanor married Henry II, son of the king of England. She bore him five children, three of which were sons, but Henry wasn’t loyal to his wife and openly had relationships with other women.
Enraged by this, Eleanor convinced her sons to rebel against their father, and Henry imprisoned her for 16 years as a consequence.
She was freed by her son Richard the Lionheart, the new king of England. When Richard left for the Third Crusade, Eleanor acted as a queen regent in his absence.
She died at the age of 82, outliving most of her children.

The Duke of Aquitaine (Occitan:Duc d'Aquitània, French:Duc d'Aquitaine, IPA:[dyk dakitɛn]) was the ruler of the ancient region of Aquitaine (not to be confused with modern-day Aquitaine) under the supremacy of Frankish, English, and later French kings.
As successor states of the Visigothic Kingdom (418–721), Aquitania (Aquitaine) and Languedoc (Toulouse) inherited both Visigothic laws and Roman Law, which together allowed women more rights than their contemporaries would enjoy until the 20th century. Particularly under the Liber Judiciorum as codified 642/643 and expanded by the Code of Recceswinth in 653, women could inherit land and title and manage it independently from their husbands or male relations, dispose of their property in legal wills if they had no heirs, represent themselves and bear witness in court from the age of 14, and arrange for their own marriages after the age of 20. As a consequence, male-preference primogeniture was the practiced succession law for the nobility.
