Historical background
NIVERNAIS
The Duchy of Nevers has existed since the 9th century. It passes between various houses including that of Flanders and is brought by marriage to Philippe le Hardi, Duke of Burgundy. By marriage again, he passed to the Dukes of Cleves and became duchy-peerage in 1538. He then passed to the Gonzagues in 1565 and was bought by Mazarin in 1659. He remained with the Mazarins until the Revolution.
