Quite a few of the monarchs of Navarre were more or less French and looked more to the King of France as opposed to the Iberian monarchs.
The monarchs from the Houses of Champagne,Evereux ,Foix and Albert all had vast lands in the kingdom of France. Joan or Jeanne I of Navarre was born in France never ruled in person and her French mother,Blanche d'Artois ruled Navarre as queen regent ,whilst poor Jeanne was married off to the French king.
Navarre was then ruled from Paris.

From five years ago, an interesting documentary on the history of the kingdom of Pamplona --> Navara. The visual introduction ends at the 1:17 minute mark and you hear the narrator start the history of how the area became independent despite so many enemy nations attacking in all fronts.
If you want to have an idea of what Spain was like before the Trastamara cousins merged in marriage Castille (Queen Isabel/Elizabeth) and Aragon + Sicily & Naples (King Fernado/Ferdinand), think of Central Europe + Italy + Germany's Sacred Roman Empire. Spain was an area of independent micro kingdom nations that, like ancient Greece, made possible because of our geography prevented one ruler to easily overpower everyone else's kingdoms at the time.
That geography was a key factor for so many northbound areas to remain independent, like Asturias, and fight back invaders to expand both area and population.

Catherine I er or Catherine de Foix was the last ruler of the kingdom of Navarre until the Invasion of 1512.
Catherine fled to Béarn as lower Navarre was annexed by Ferdinand II .Several attempts were made to reconquer Lower Navarre by the French later failed.
The lands in green and purple were the French domains of Catherine I and the house of Foix-Albret

The 1659 Treaty of the Pyrenees put an end to the litigation over the definite French-Spanish borders and to any French-Navarrese dynastic claim over Spanish Navarre. The title of King of Navarre continued to be used by the Kings of France until the French Revolution in 1792, and was revived again during the Restoration, 1814–30. Since the rest of Navarre was in Spanish hands, the kings of Spain would also use the title of King of Navarre.
