Summary

Georges Minois: Hundred Years War I-II

The Birth of Two Nations

The Hundred Years War was an intermittent war between the Kingdom of England and the Kingdom of France that lasted 116 years from 1337 to 1453, and in that time periods of intense warfare alternated with periods of peace. The war began with English expansion on French soil, and ended with the expulsion of the English from French soil, except for the city of Calais and its surroundings.

The Hundred Years War was a turning point in many ways. The war contributed to the national awareness of both warring parties, and from the military point of view, new weapons and tactics were used in it, which had a far-reaching effect on the wars that would be fought later. With the appearance of a standing army for the first time in Middle Ages, the army system of feudal vassals was completely abandoned, which made the army more deadly and powerful, so for all these reasons it is considered that the Hundred Years War is the most important conflict in history medieval warfare.

The Hundred Years War is divided into several periods:

  • The first period (the so-called Edvard's period) which lasted between 13371360
  • The second period (the so-called Charles's period which lasted between 13691389
  • The third period (the so-called Lancaster period) which lasted between 14151429
  • The fourth and last period (the period Ivana_Orleanska which lasted until the year 1453), which is characterized by engleska loss of positions and defeat.

The name Hundred Years' War came into use only later and was introduced by historians in order to more easily show the sequence of historical events.
