Raymond IV, comte de Toulouse, dies at his castle of Mons Peregrinus (Mont-Pèlerin) near Tripoli February 28 at age 64 (approximate), having ruled Tripoli since 1102. His son Bertrand inherits the title, will win the countship of Tripoli, and will rule until his death in 1112, but Aquitaine's Guillaume (William) IX usurped the Toulouse countship from 1098 to 1100 and will usurp it again from 1114 to 1119.
The Holy Roman Emperor Heinrich IV is captured by his son Heinrich, 24, who last year announced that he owed no allegiance to his excommunicated father and has gained support from the emperor's foes, especially in Saxony and Thuringia. A diet at Mainz compels the emperor to abdicate in December, but the conditions of his abdication are violated, and he is held prisoner at Ingelheim.
Sweden's Ingold I abdicates after an 18-year reign; his nephew Philip Halstensson, will reign jointly with his son Ingold, Philip until 1118, Ingold (Inge) until 1125.
England's Henry I invades Normandy, takes Bayeux and Caen, but withdraws to deal with political issues at home (see Tinchebray, 1106).
