Hundred Years War - The French Victory


             The 100 years war was a seriouse of different wars lasting from 1337-1453 because the house of vailos and the house of plantangenet thought that they deserved the french throne. The vailos clamied the title of the king, as well the plantangenets claimed to be kings of France and England. The fight lasted 116 on and off due to periods of peace but it ended with the expolsion of the plantangenets.
            
The fight lasted about 116 yeats but it wasn't a full 116 years there were breakes in war called " periods of peace". although the plantangents won the war nearly ruined the calois while they gained hugh amounts of plunder in the mainland, helping England. Unlike France it sufgfered from the war because most of the conflict occurred on that continent. the three main wats was the Edwardian War 1337-1360 the Caroline war 1369-1389 and the lancastrian war 1415-1429.
