House of Bettencourt (1253-1361)
The first Bettencourt monarch, William I, emerged as the strongest claimant to the throne after a succession crisis broke out in the aftermath of Morcan VIII's death. Morcan, whose children all died in their youth, died without a direct issue, from which heirs were traditionally chosen. Her unexpected death came before she named an heir designate, resulting in infighting among the royal family. An interregnum was soon established during which the Guardians of the Realm oversaw the succession dispute. The Earl of Holyhead, The Earl of Benbaun, and the Archbishop of Spálgleann, who served as the three guardians, decided that Morcan's nephew, William Bettencourt of Estmere, had the strongest claim. William was the son of Morcan's late sister, Fiona. His status as a Verique noble influenced the decisions of the two Fitzgeralds, who themselves descended from the Verique. The fondness many held for the Estmerish-born Queen Natalie also made him a popular candidate. He was only eleven years old and was in Estmere at the time of his selection. As such the guardians maintained their positions until William came of age in 1258.
William was the first of five Bettencourt monarchs. Upon the birth of his first son, William II, the house was Ghaillisized as MacWilliam. Numerous Estmerish reforms were issued during the reign of the Bettencourts. More royal burghs were issued, taxation was made more efficient, and . There were no anti-popes set up by the Bettencourt monarchs, breaking with a long line of anti-popes set up by the native houses which preceded them. Relations with the papacy were improved and cognatic primogeniture hereditary law was introduced. The abandonment of tanistry brought stability but angered many of the Ghaillish nobles who preferred the native system. The unexpected death of William III in 1359 left the six year old William IV on the throne. Discontent led by the MacIconnichs, who had been out of power since the arrival of William I, spread throughout much of the kingdom and a brief uprising saw Coinneach II sack and seize the throne for himself. William IV and the Bettencourts were executed by Coinneach II and the royal line of the house went extinct.
