  • (Geschiedenis) .Source 1
    Dulcia van Provence (1090 - 1129) was een dochter van graaf Gilbert I van Gévaudan en van gravin Gerberga van Provence. Zij volgde haar moeder in 1112 op als gravin van Provence nadat ze was gehuwd met graaf Raymond Berengarius III van Barcelona, die tevens graaf van Provence werd.

    Er ontstond een lange strijd tussen Provence en Toulouse. In 1125 werd een akkoord bereikt over de verdeling van Provence. Opper-Provence kwam toe aan de graaf van Toulouse. Dit gebied, gelegen tussen de Isère in het noorden en de Alpen in het oosten, de Durance in het zuiden en de Rhône in het westen, omvatte een groot deel van het bisdom Avignon, evenals de bisdommen Vaison, Cavaillon, Carpentras, Orange, Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux, Valence en Die. Al deze gebieden vormden, wat sindsdien genoemd werd, het markiezaat Provence. Neder-Provence,dat toekwam aan de graaf van Barcelona, werd sindsdien het graafschap Arles of Provence genoemd. De stad Avignon werd eveneens tussen beide vorsten verdeeld, evenals de vestingen van Sorgues, Caumont, Tor en afhankelijkheden. Vermoedelijk stond Raymond Berengarius zijn rechten op Avignon af aan de graven van Foulcalquier. Het verdrag bevatte ook een aantal bepalingen bij gebreke van opvolging in een van de graafschappen.

    Na haar overlijden brak een verwarde periode aan, die beëindigd werd met de oorlogen van Baux, die werden beslecht in het voordeel van het Huis Barcelona.

    Douce I (also Dulcia or Dolça, called "of Rouergue" or "of Gévaudan") (c.?1090 – 1127) was the daughter of Gilbert I of Gévaudan and Gerberga of Provence and wife of Ramon Berenguer III, Count of Barcelona. In 1112, she inherited the county of Provence through her mother. She married Ramon Berenguer at Arles on 3 February that year.

    In 1113, Douce ceded her rights in Provence, Gévaudan, and the viscounty of Millau to her husband. According to a once prevailing opinion, "Provençal troubadours ... entered Catalonia at the time" and even the Catalan language was imported from Provence.[1] According to nationalist historians it was the beginning of l'engrandiment occitànic (the Occitan aggrandisement): a great scheme to unite various lands on both sides of the Pyrenees.[2]

    In reality the marriage gave the House of Barcelona extensive interests in Occitania and put it in conflict with the Counts of Toulouse, with whom a partition of Provence was signed in 1125, shortly before Douce's death. Her death inaugurated a period of instability in Provence. A cadet branch of the House of Barcelona was set up to rule, but a disputed succession opened up the Baussenque Wars (1144–1162), which terminated in Provençal victory. Douce and Ramon Berenguer's descendants continued to rule Provence until the death of Beatrice of Provence in 1267.
  • She died in the year 1129, she was 39 years old.
  • A child of Gilbert I van Gévaudan and Gerberga van Provence
