Causes of the 100 Years' War

1. Controversy Over Succession The French nobility selected Philip of Valois, a cousin of the last king through the male line. He founded a new French dynasty that ruled through the 16c. He was chosen in preference to King Edward III of England, whose mother was the daughter of the late king, Philip IV. In 1340, Edward claimed the title “King of France.”

2. Fr. Land Belonging to Br. Kings A longer standing issue was the status of lands within France that belonged to English kings. Edward was actually a vassal of Philip’s, holding sizable French territories as fiefs from the king of France [it went back to the Norman conquest].

3. Conflict Over Flanders The ‘dagger’ pointing at the ‘heart’ of England! Wool industry. Flanders wants its independence from French control. Asks England for help.

4. A Struggle for National Identity France was NOT a united country before the war began. The French king only controlled about half of the country.

The War Itself

Military Characteristics The War was a series of short raids and expeditions punctuated by a few major battles, marked off by truces or ineffective treaties. The relative strengths of each country dictated the sporadic nature of the struggle.

French Advantages Population of about 16,000,000. Far richer and more populous than England. At one point, the French fielded an army of over 50,000  at most, Britain mustered only 32,000.

British Advantages Weapons Technologies. In almost every engagement, the English were outnumbered. Britain’s most successful strategies: Avoid pitched battles. Engage in quick, profitable raids Steal what you can. Destroy everything else. Capture enemy knights to hold for ransom.

The Longbow as a Weapon The use of the English defensive position was the use of the longbow. Its arrows had more penetrating power than a bolt from a crossbow. Could pierce an inch of wood or the armor of a knight at 200 yards! A longbow could be fired more rapidly. 6 arrows per minute.

The British Longbow: The Battle of Poitiers, 1356

Early English Victories

The Effective Use of the Cannon at Poitiers, 1356

French Confusion The English captured the French king, John II [r.1350-1364]. France was now ruled by the Estates General A representative council of townspeople and nobles. Created in 1355. Purpose  to secure funds for the war. In theory, the French king could not levy taxes on his own!!

The Jacquerie, 1358 In the confusion and unrest following the French disaster at Poitiers, this rural movement began. It was a response to the longstanding economic and political grievances in the countryside worsened by warfare. The rebels were defeated by aristocratic armies.

Trouble in England Peasant Revolt in 1381 was put down by King Richard II [r. 1377-1399]. After charges of tyranny, Richard II was forced to abdicate in 1300. Parliament elected Henry IV [r. 1399-1413], the first ruler from the House of Lancaster. Henry avoided war taxes. He was careful not to alienate the nobility. Therefore, a truce was signed ending French and British hostilities [for the time being, at least].

King Henry V (r. 1412-1422) Renewed his family’s claim to the French throne. At Agincourt in 1415, the English, led by Henry himself, goaded a larger French army into attacking a fortified English position. With the aid of the dukes of Burgundy, Henry gained control over Normandy, Paris, and much of northern France!

A Burgundian Presence

Treaty of Troyes (1420) Charles VI’s son [the future Charles VII], was declared illegitimate and disinherited. Henry V married Catherine, the daughter of Charles VI. Henry was declared the legitimate heir to the French throne! A final English victory seemed assured, but both Charles VI and Henry V died in 1422. This left Henry’s infant son, Henry VI [r. 1422-1461], to inherit BOTH thrones.

Height of English Dominance

The French “Reconquest” The two kings’ deaths ushered in the final stage of the 100 Years’ War [1422-1453]. Even though in 1428 the military and political power seemed firmly in British hands, the French reversed the situation. In 1429, with the aid of the mysterious Joan of Arc, the French king, Charles VII, was able to raise the English siege of Orleans. This began the reconquest of the north of France.

Cannons Used at Orleons

Joan of Arc (1412-1432) The daughter of prosperous peasants from an area of Burgundy that had suffered under the English. Like many medieval mystics, she reported regular visions of divine revelation. Her “voices” told her to go to the king and assist him in driving out the English. She dressed like a man and was Charles’ most charismatic and feared military leader!

Joan Born January 6, circa 1412 in Domremy, France Parents were Jacques and Isabelle d’Arc Born the middle of 5 children Argumentative nature and incredible common sense. Very religious from an early age

Began seeing visions at age 12 or 13 Verbal and visible St. Catherine of Alexandria, St. Margaret of Antioch, and Archangel Michael Directed her religious life until age 16

Charles of Ponthieu Based in the city of Bourges, surrounded No money, poorly equipped army, doubting his inheritance. Orleans under siege by English

Joan goes nearby to ask permission to travel. Denied 3rd attempt successful Dresses as a man for travel Went to Chion through 375 miles of enemy territory Meets with Charles Myths and legends of meeting

Tries to convinces Charles she’s divinely inspired Sent to monastery First ultimatum to the English Suit of armor and battle standard Sword

Reformed the army Charles had acquired Expelled prostitutes, banned swearing, confession a requirement Volunteers began pouring in from the neighboring villages La Hire

Orleans April 25 Joan leads army asked again for English surrender Headed for English-held church, St. Loup Carried standard asked again for English surrender Took Bastille des Augustins and 2 towers Wounded Returned later at night

Victory Victory at Orleans led to increased support Declared divinely inspired Advised Charles Travel to Reims to be crowned In the middle of English-held lands

Journey to the Crown Prediction of Troyes Ordered positioning of troops Troyes surrendered Followed by all other cities Charles crowned July 17, 1429 Family granted noble status

Paris Fighting on hold for weak truce July 23, 1430 Duke of Alencon and Joan head to retake Paris Wounded Charles orders retreat back to Reims

Capture Easter of 1431 voices warn Joan of capture Before June 24 May 23, Joan defends Compiègne Bridge is raised behind her Sold to English by Jean de Luxembourg Did Charles try to get her back? 4 campaigns to get her by La Hire

Trial February 21 – May 17 1431 Pierre Cauchon (English) All assessors were English supporters or threatened Held in secular military prison Continued to wear men’s clothing

Trial Court tried to manipulate Joan When Joan was asked what dialect her Voice spoke: "A better than yours." and when asked if she believed in God: "Yes, better than you."  "If I am not, may God put me there; and if I am, may God so keep me. I should be the saddest creature in the world if I knew I were not in His grace" Questioned about religious knowledge, fairy tree and her visions Quickly moved into a private hearing Convicted with the charge of cross-dressing Prison account of eyewitness Declared a “Relapsed Heretic”

Execution Described by numerous eyewitness accounts “The day when Joan was burned, the wood was got ready to burn her before the sermon was finished or the sentence had been pronounced. And no sooner the sentence uttered by the bishop, without any delay, she was taken to the fire, and I did not see that there was any sentence pronounced by the lay judge.” Maugier Leparmentier, Apparitor of the archiepiscopal court

Tied to a pillar visible by the crowd in the marketplace of Rouen Execution Tied to a pillar visible by the crowd in the marketplace of Rouen Cried out for Jesus Many English were afraid of damnation for her burning. Joan was 19 years old

Appeal After English were driven from France Court deemed corrupt in 1456 Joan described as a martyr Declared “Venerable” in 1904 “Blessed” in 1908 Canonized in 1920

Joan of Arc (1412-1432) She brought inspiration and a sense of national identity and self-confidence. With her aid, the king was crowned at Reims [ending the “disinheritance”]. She was captured during an attack on Paris and fell into English hands. Because of her “unnatural dress” and claim to divine guidance, she was condemned and burned as a heretic in 1432. She instantly became a symbol of French resistance.

Joan’s image and story used for Today Joan’s image and story used for Popular culture Anime, television shows, movies, comic books During WWII to encourage women to support Stamps and posters

The End of the War Despite Joan’s capture, the French advance continued. By 1450 the English had lost all their major centers except Calais. In 1453 the French armies captured an English-held fortress. This was the last battle of the war. There was not treaty, only a cessation of hostilities.
