we're back with the final episode of our series on the Hundred Years War. we talk about the English dominance in the early stages of the Lancastrian period, including the crushing victory at Agincourt and taking over huge swaths of French territory, even Paris itself. but then we see the emergence of Joan of Arc and one of the most unlikely events in history: a teenage peasant girl helps lead the French army to martial victories and gets a new French king crowned. despite her early, horrible death, this helped the French turn things around and eventually win the Hundred Years War.yet, this in turn leads directly to the Wars of the Roses, which sets the stage for England to become the globe-bestriding colossus we know and despise today, which we will go over next time.
