Thierry of Alsace

Thierry of Alsace (c. 1099–1168), son of Theodoric II of Lorraine and Gertrude of Flanders, claimed the county after Charles the Good's murder in 1127. The Flemish towns backed him against King Louis VI's candidate William Clito, whose death in July 1128 left Thierry sole count.

He submitted to Louis in 1132, checked Baldwin IV of Hainaut, and gave Flanders forty years of stable rule, in which agriculture and commerce developed.

Four times he campaigned in the East, joining the Second Crusade and the 1164 invasion of Egypt. By Sibylla of Anjou he left sons Philip and Matthew and daughter Margaret I.
