Hundred Years' War
Shelf by nono umasy
The Hundred Years' War (1337-1453), a prolonged series of conflicts between England and France, profoundly impacted medieval Europe's political and military landscape. Sparked by territorial disputes and claims to the French throne, this war saw the rise of national identities and significant military innovations. Notable figures include Joan of Arc, whose leadership revitalized French fortunes, and King Edward III of England, who initiated the war. Key battles like Agincourt and Crécy showcased the evolving nature of warfare, including the use of the longbow. The war ended with French victory, significantly diminishing English continental power while fostering a sense of nationalism in both nations. Its legacy influenced European history for centuries, shaping the development of modern statehood and military tactics.
