Edward III King of England claimed right to the French throne and backfired when Philip refused to restore the lands he took (Guienne).
The conflict also involved control of Flanders, a key market for the English imports of wool and clothes.
The two men had started a Hundred Years War (1337–1453) a period well-characterized by the classic European realignments of power.
It was the time when Joanne of Arc emerged as a legendary source of inspiration for the French to seek rebellion against an English dominated world. As a female character, she was one of the first emblematic figures to appear leading a series of important battles in a major conflict.
The conflict yielded a crown for France ultimately yielding France victorious over the increasing influence and power of France.
Sadly, the conflict inflicted heavy casualities to the French, who suffered from famine, political unrest, and the Black Death. The victory was obtained at a very high cost.
