At this time Edward III was only eighteen years old. War broke out in 1338. At first the English won some big battles, especially one big battle at Agincourt in 1415, under their king Henry V (1413-1422), where Henry used a new weapon, cannons, to help him win the battle. The English managed to take over almost all of France. But in the 1420's the French started to win again under a great military leader, a woman named Joan of Arc. Even though the English eventually captured Joan and burned her alive in 1431, the French continued to win the war and in 1453 the English king Henry VI (the son of Henry V) gave up his claim to rule France.

The French lords chose a new king, who tried to fight the English soldiers and get them out of France, but he couldn't do it. In fact, the king was losing more and more of France to the English, until he really only controlled a little tiny piece of France in the north. (He was a pretty weak king). Then a young girl named Joan heard God talking to her in a field, where she was taking care of her father's sheep . She said God told her to go lead the French army to victory over the English. She left her village, which was called Arc, and went to the French army. The men laughed at Joan of Arc and said how could she lead the army, when she didn't know anything about fighting? But she did lead them anyway, and instead of losing they began to win. Joan of Arc led the French army to many victories, but then the English caught her and took her prisoner. The English said that Joan of Arc was a witch, and after a long trial they burned her alive.

The Hundred Years War The International History Project The Battle of Agincourt An Early History of France The Hundred Years War was an intermittent struggle between England and France in the 14th-15th century over a series of disputes, including the question of the legitimate succession to the French crown. The struggle involved several generations of English and French claimants to the crown and actually occupied a period of more than 100 years. By convention it is said to have started in 1337 and ended in 1453, but there had been periodic fighting over the question of English fiefs in France going back to the 12th century. Medieval legalities were such that one king could be the vassal of another king if the first had inherited titles outside his own kingdom. Such was the case with the English kings since William I, who, as the duke of Normandy, had conquered England in 1066. Marriage alliances and wars had altered the nature of the English titles in France, but, at the death of the French king Charles IV in 1328, Edward III of England was also duke of Guyenne (part of Aquitaine in southwestern France) and count of Ponthieu (on the English Channel). Furthermore, because his mother was Charles IV's sister and because Charles IV had no sons, Edward III considered himself a legitimate claimant to the French throne. The other major claimant was the Count of Valois, a grandson of Philip III of France through a younger branch of the family. A French assembly called to settle the question chose the Valois claimant as Philip VI. Edward III appeared to accept the decision, but when Philip VI, afraid of another king's power in his realm, maneuvered to confiscate Guyenne in 1337, Edward III renewed his claim to the French throne and brought an army to Flanders.

Parliament continued to develop and English rather than French became the language of daily use. A military recovery under Henry V appeared to have handed him the French victory; instead, after his death, England quickly declined into a period of bloody civil war known as the Wars of the Roses.

The Norman Kings enfeoffed sheriff who served as the local representative of the king. Henry I, however, turned his court into an administrative bureaucracy by creating special offices. These court offices would each serve a limited and specialized set of functions so that the office-holders would themselve become efficient administrators in that one area. Most significantly, one of these specialized offices was the Exchequer , which oversaw the acquisition and dispersal of revenues for the crown. Henry II church grand jury . He also introduced the original form of jury trials. In Henry's time, jury trials were only applied to civil cases involving property. When someone made a complaint of dispossession, the sheriff was empowered to bring before the judge twelve men who were familiar with the case. These men would then tell the judge what they knew of the case and would give their opinion as to the truth of the complaint or the defense. This twelve man testimonial would eventually develop into the civil and criminal jury trial.

Fair: Market held at regular intervals, usually once to twice a year. Fairs tended to offer a wider range of goods than normal markets. They were generally licensed by either the King, a local lord, or a chartered town, hence the "Charter Fairs" still held in Britain. In later centuries, Hiring Fairs became the common way of hiring agricultural labourers for the next year. Often, a second fair would be held about a month later, to permit the re-hiring of workers unsuited to their original jobs. Sucking a straw is said to be the signal that a labourer was looking for work. Farm: Fixed sum, usually paid annually, for the right to collect all revenues from land; in effect, rent. Lords could farm land to vassals, receiving a fixed annual rent in place of the normal feudal obligation. Many sheriffs farmed out their shires, contracting in advance to pay a fixed annual sum to the crown, thus obtaining the right to collect any additional royal revenues for their own profit. The resulting extortion became widely unpopular. Fealty (Oath of): Oath by which a vassal swore loyalty to his lord, usually on a Relic of Saints or on The Bible.

39. WHKMLA : History Of England : The Hundred Years' War, The War only in the loss of the possessions in France; england was now the Start of the 100 years War, from Camelot medieval Life and hundred years War, by James http://www.zum.de/whkmla/region/britain/100yearswar.html

The 100 Years War : Dynastic Policy The 100 Years War : Peasants' Revolts The Hundred Years War : The War The Kings of England were hereditary DUKES OF NORMANDY, and the Plantagenet Dynasty Kings were also DUKES OF AQUITAINE and COUNTS OF POITOU. Although Normandy was lost to France by King John (1204), the English kings still owned a sizeable proportion of France. The confiscation of the English fiefs of Poitou and Aquitaine lead to English King Edward III. refusing to pay homage to King Philip VI. of France, of the new Valois dynasty, claiming the crown for himself instead. The war began with the Estates of Flanders, dependent on English wool exports, refusing to accept their count's loyalty to France; Flanders joined the English, and the English fleet won it's first victory in the BATTLE OF SLUIS (1346) over the French. The English invaded France, defeating the French army in the BATTLE OF CRECY, despite being heavily outnumbered; the WELSH ARCHERS proved decisive. CALAIS fell to the English. The BLACK DEATH ended hostilities for a while. It was not until the 1350es, when the EDWARD, THE BLACK PRINCE (-1376, so named because of the black armour he wore) appeared, directing the campaign against the French from Gascogne. In the BATTLE OF POITIERS (1356), again heavily outnumbered, he won a brilliant victory, taking prisoner King Jean II. of France. France did not pay the RANSOM promised for the release of King Jean, and the king, abiding to the laws of chivalry, returned to England to be held prisoner until he died in 1364. The events of the 100 Years War are, for the most part, describes in the CHRONICLE OF JEAN FROISSART, a historian native to Hainault (modern Belgium).

40. WHKMLA : Hundred Years' War 1337-1453 France 1358, Wat Tyler s Revolt in england in 1385 1450 formed another facet of the hundred years War, as they feature prominently in books on medieval warfare http://www.zum.de/whkmla/military/15cen/100yearswar.html

Hundred Years' War, 1337-1453 Click here for a Timeline of the Hundred Years' War A.) The Character of the War Already the name of the event commonly known as the Hundred Years' War (in French : Guerre de Cent Ans ) is problematic, for it lasted 116 years and rather comprises of a series of wars. The core is the conflict between the Plantagenet and the Valois Dynasties, rather than - as historical literature usually states - between England and France. In 1337, it began as a conflict between Edward III., as Duke of Aquitaine, and the King of France; only in 1340 did Edward III., at the request of the burghers of the Flemish city of Gent, permit himself to be proclaimed King of France, a claim upheld throughout most of the war. The Plantagenet vassals in Aquitaine, and in other areas the Plantagenet dynasty temporarily held in France, were often loyal to his cause and feature, in contemporary sources as well as in modern historical literature, as "English". In this context it may be pointed out, that Edward III., as a descendant of the Norman conquerors of England, spoke French. The war freqently was interrupted by periods of truce, the longest from 1347-1355 and from 1396 (the marriage of King Richard II. and French princess Isabel) to 1413. These periods of truce were violated occasionally.
