Japanese: カトリック同盟 - カトリックどうめい(英語表記)La Ligue
Catholic League - Catholic League (English spelling) La Ligue
Also known as the Catholic League. A radical Catholic alliance formed in 1576 by Henry I, Duke of Guise (→ Guise〈Duke〉). With the support of Spain, the Duke of Guise claimed the throne in opposition to the Protestant Henry of Navarre (later King Henry IV). He exiled King Henry III, who was trying to seize control of the Catholic League on the "Day of the Barricades" (a revolt by Catholic citizens of Paris, May 12, 1588), to Chartres, and seized control of Paris, but was assassinated at the end of 1588 during the Three Estates General in Blois. The Catholic League did not recognize Henry IV's accession to the throne (89), and continued fighting in various places, and in Paris, they resisted mainly through the Committee of Sixteen. Henry IV's subsequent conversion to Catholicism, which aimed to unify the kingdom, made it easier for the leaders of the Catholic League to submit to him.

Japanese:
旧教同盟とも呼ばれる。 1576年フランスのギーズ公アンリ1世 (→ギーズ〈公家〉 ) によって結成された過激派カトリックの同盟。スペインの支持を受けたギーズ公は,プロテスタントのアンリ・ド・ナバール (のちの国王アンリ4世 ) に反対して王位を請求。彼は「バリケードの日」 (パリのカトリック教徒市民の蜂起,1588.5.12.) にカトリック同盟を掌握しようとしていた国王アンリ3世をシャルトルに追放し,パリを掌握したが,88年末ブロアの全国三部会に際し暗殺された。カトリック同盟はアンリ4世の即位 (89) も認めず,各地で戦いを続け,パリでは十六人委員会を中心に抵抗を行なった。その後王国の統一を目指すアンリ4世のカトリックへの改宗は,カトリック同盟の首領たちの服従を容易にした。
