The Swiss mercenaries, however, betrayed him at Novara into the hands of Louis XII. , who carriedhim off to France. The triumph of the French in 1500 was also thehighest point of the fortunes of their ally, Caesar Borgia, who seemedfor a while to be completely successful. In this year Louis made atreaty at Granada, by which he and Ferdinand the Catholic agreed todespoil Frederick of Naples; and in 1501 Louis made a second expeditioninto Italy. Again all seemed easy at the outset, and he seized ...thekingdom of Naples without difficulty; falling out, however, with hispartner in the bad bargain, Ferdinand the Catholic, he was speedily sweptcompletely out of the peninsula, with terrible loss of honour, men, andwealth.
It now became necessary to arrange for the future of France. Louis XII. Had only a daughter, Claude, and it was proposed that she should beaffianced to Charles of Austria, the future statesman and emperor. Thisscheme formed the basis of the three treaties of Blois (1504). In 1500, by the Treaty of Granada, Louis had in fact handed Naples over to Spain;now by the three treaties he alienated his best friends, the Venetiansand the papacy, while he in fact also handed Milan over to the AustrianHouse, together with territories considered to be integral parts ofFrance.
