What was the Hundred Years' War?

France Vs. England


The Hundred Years' War was a conflict between two countries, France and England. Edward III, the closest relative of the dead king of Franc, thought the he should be the king of France. The French people didn't wan't someone from a different country ruling them so they had a war. The countries fought battles on land and they also fought battles over the sea. There were several famous sea battles that took place during the war. They also fought over control of land, one place that is called Bordeaux which comes in later. There was around 1,500,000 - 2,000,000 casualties overall. In the end, France ended up winning the Hundred Years' War.
