Many things occurred during the hundred years' war. One of the reasons for this war could be called unnecessary. If Edward III would have just waited until Phillip VI of Valois died , then he could have been king and lived happily ever after. But he had to get impatient and try to take the throne as soon as possible. Another thing that I disagree with is how Charles VII didn't interfere when the Burgundians took Joan of Arc.
This situation could have been avoided if Edward III wouldn't have been so stubborn in his quest for the throne. He was only fifteen years old and was already very greedy. He had plenty of time to wait for Phillip VI to die and then he would have rose up and taken the throne rightfully. Also it was definitely not worth going to war over something that he would have attained in a 5-10 year period anyway.
One of the most amazing things that happened during this war is when Joan of Arc, a peasant with no military experience told Charles VII how to defeat the English. This could be considered a miracle to the French, especially since her strategy that the King of The Heavens delivered to her worked perfectly. Yet there is a downside to this story. When the Burgundians captured her Charles VII did very little for her, and she was eventually burned at the stake.
In conclusion, this was a very interesting war of the Middle Ages. Some could say that miracles even occurred. Overall, this was a very interesting era of European history, and nothing will be quite like it.
