Causes of the War
The Hundred Years' War began in 1337 when Edward III of England claimed the French throne. Edward was a descendant of Philip IV of France through his mother, Isabella. However, the French nobility rejected Edward's claim, and they crowned Philip VI of Valois as king. Edward refused to accept Philip's authority, and he invaded France in 1337.
Key Events of the War
The Hundred Years' War was a long and bloody conflict. Some of the most important events of the war include:
* The Battle of Crecy (1346): The English army, led by Edward III, defeated the French army, led by Philip VI. The English victory was due in part to their use of the longbow, a powerful new weapon. * The Battle of Poitiers (1356): The English army, led by Edward, the Black Prince, defeated the French army, led by King John II of France. John was captured and held prisoner in England for four years. * The Battle of Agincourt (1415): The English army, led by Henry V, defeated the French army, led by Charles VI. The English victory was a major turning point in the war. * The Treaty of Troyes (1420): Henry V and Charles VI signed a treaty that made Henry the heir to the French throne. * The Battle of Castillon (1453): The French army, led by Jean Bureau, defeated the English army, led by John Talbot. The French victory marked the end of the Hundred Years' War.
