The article is devoted to the study of the collapse of the unity of France in the first third of the 15th century. During the civil war, Duke Jean the Fearless and Queen Isabella of Bavaria in 1417–1418. began to form alternative governing bodies to weaken the influence of their opponents in Paris. This led to the territorial disintegration of the country and the emergence of competing governments in the north and south of the kingdom.
