It was a branch line of the Capetians , descended from Robert I the Great , a son of King Louis VI. of France , to which he gave the County of Dreux in 1132 . Robert's grandson Peter Mauclerc married the heiress of the Duchy of Bretagne in 1213 , his descendants ruled until 1514 and represent the last ducal dynasty of Brittany.
