17,000 Articles from the Encyclopædia Britannica, 11th & 12th eds. Odo (c. 860–898) [or Eudes].  King of the Franks, a son of Robert the Strong, count of Anjou (d. 866), and sometimes referred to as duke of France and also as count of Paris. For his skill and bravery in resisting the attacks of the Normans Odo was chosen king by the western Franks when the emperor Charles the Fat was deposed in 887, and was crowned at Compiègne in February 888. He continued to battle against the Normans, whom he defeated at Montfaucon and elsewhere, but was soon involved in a struggle with some powerful nobles, who supported the claim of Charles, afterwards King Charles III., to the Frankish kingdom. To gain prestige and support Odo owned himself a vassal of the German king, Arnulf, but in 894 Arnulf declared for Charles. Eventually, after a struggle which lasted for three years, Odo was compelled to come to terms with his rival, and to surrender to him a district north of the Seine. He died at La Fère on the 1st of January 898.
