      You skip one big event between Poitiers and Bretigny with Edward 3 chevauchee in 1359-1360.
      Edward 3 tried to force the two treaty of London in 1358 and 1359 which will give him a massive ransom and all the land of the old Plantagenet empire but the future Charles 5 and the general estates refused them so Edward start another chevauchee hoping another big battle.
      The Valois refused this battle and close all the cities on their way starting an attrition war.
      Because of the Winchelsea raid, Edward tried to besieged Paris but failed and started to made war crime because the lack of supplies and success in the countryside.
      Finally, Edward stated the siege of Chartres but the Plantagenet suffer a tempest and lose 1000 men and will be seen as a divine punishment for their behaviour called the black monday.
      Edward will be forced to withdraw his chevauchee and finally sign the treaty of Bretigny wich will be far less advantageous than the treaty of London because he had to give up his claim to the french throne, give up the Normandy, Anjou and Maine and only take the Aquitaine and the ransom for Jean 2 will be 3 millions gold instead of 4.

      It also part of the reason the English call the French ‘The Old Enemy’. We have fought for so long and so often that it became a way of life. Glad we are more or less friends politically speaking these days. But the old rivalry is still seen alive mostly in sporting contests. Both parties enjoy getting a victory over the other.

      Something that also adds to this, is the fact that in this war, while spanning an enormous amount of time and land, there were lengthy peaceful intervals inbetween periods of very intense warfare, and certain areas could go years without any sign of a war going on, and then be raided and sieged out of the blue. It was a far less 'cut and dry' affair than we often think of as typical of armed conflicts.

    Funny how Fance and England ended up in opposite positions at the end of the Hundred Year's war. In the 1330s, France was plagued by civil war, a weak monarchy, very strong and powerful nobles, and generally weak and divided. This gave a more centralized, stronger, and powerful English monarchy an opportunity to gather their forces and invade, cultimating in Agincourt in 1415. By the end of the war, it was England that had the weak monarch, had a civil war brewing, a series of battle hardened nobles who won glory in France with enough titles and land to challenge the king, plus they were broke from the oh I don't know, half a dozen invasions of France they had done. But France became a more centralized monarchy, with a standing army, the nobility was subbordinate to the crown, and the experiences of over a century of war made them extremely determined. The main difference is the French never made claims to the English crown, and they never tried to invade England during the War of the Roses. They were too exhausted in both willpower and resources to mount such a campaign. That being said, other than the 1640s, the 1450s was probably the best opportunity in France's history to invade and take over England. They had no real navy, a divided nation, and were weak and humiliated by war. I'm very happy that England (UK now) and France are buddies and they put aside all those centuries of war.

      There's a fair amount wrong with this such as the new class of men who took over the minor royal houses such as York and Lancaster were from trading Magnets and Oxford dons to put it in a really simplistic rubbish modern way. This ofc has something to do with the flower of england being spent in france and the meritocracy from what was then parliament which was expanded and used to transform england into a war economy such as with williams blackbook. Its something that doesnt get told much, how England's foreign policy remained in the hands of local elites who put in place what would be the agricultural revolution along with intellectual capacity for moderating power through again, sorry the the modern simplicity, commercial links with the rest of the british isles,scandinavia, Germany, ottomans (far east) and to russia as was seen in elizabeths reign. And no relations aren't good at all. Whitehall ignores france whilst quai d'orsay plays with toy soldiers. Five eyes, aukus, transpacific partnerships, nuclear subs and ofc brexit. And ofc the English were very much on the back foot against the french.

      The French won a bunch of battles too. They had to in order to win. I think the English doing better at the start had a lot to do with being allied with the Burgundians. The French doing better towards the end and ultimately winning had a lot to do with the Burgundians switching sides. Burgundy was a large kingdom in those days, reaching up all the way from Burgundy in current day France to a large slice of Germany and all the way into current Belgium and the Netherlands. It wasn't the myth, propagated by the typically skewed historical education found in the anglo-sphere, of the plucky English besting the French at Agincourt, Crecy and Poiters. I find it sadly amusing how few people in the anglo-sphere have even heard of Patay, for example, where the longbowmen were finally destroyed by the French.

From the Welsh, the Scottish, the Percys etc. Henry V wouldn’t have had the success in France he had if it wasn’t for the stability his father’s tumultuous reign eventually brought.

      It means in 1328, the real king will be Philippe of Burgundy (Philippe 5 grandson) and when the war strated in 1337, there was also 2 Louis 10 grandson (Charles of Navarre and his younger brother) so once again, with or without the salic law (agnatic or cognatic succession), Edward 3 never had a legitimate claim (either it will be in 1328 or 1337).
      Illness indeed weakened Edward Woodstock but Charles 5 was also ill all his life and proved to be a great ruler despite that unlike Edward so his illness will stopped him to fight but not to rule.

      Richard 2 was made king at 10 and had no one to guide him but he was indeed a bad king (like Henry 3 with worse luck) who could be decent if he doesn't had bad odds since the start.
      If we talk again about the salic being invalid, then Henry 4 was a usurper and he indirectly made his grandfather claim nullified but he was good enough to deal with the rebellion he created.
      Henry 5 first and foremost succeed between 1415 and 1422 because France had a civil war since 1407 and a mad king (just like the war of the roses) but it indeed helped him that Henry 4 was a strong figure.

So yeah a bit of a weak argument.
      Language- most nobles were bilingual and English was expected to be known on some level by the 12th century- John actually had one of Lionhearts best councillors thrown out of power for being a “foreigner” and one of the ways he proved this was his inability to speak English.
      Barons- depends, lower nobility didn’t have much/no land in France, higher nobility would often pick the territory they felt more based in, usually England after the fall of Normandy during johns reign (there were some exceptions such as William Marshal but this was rare)
      Court- would have had (depends on the period obviously), Anglo-Saxon, Normans, Bretons, Italians, Frisians etc. That doesn’t prove much- identity until the development of nationality was largely based off loyalty to a liege lord (ie supporting Edward III meant you were “English”).
      Cultural beacon- Kind of- definitely the most powerful for most of European medieval history but after the rise of the Spanish, not as much. And then by 1700 English culture was starting to dominate conversations about politics and science.
      Also now??? No English/Anglo culture dominates the whole world after 1800 and the fall of Napoleon don’t live in fantasy (there’s a reason you speak English).
      Yes and Edward III also spoke English fluently, hated the “French”, embraced English saints and celebrated Arthur, a Celtic. This is important as despite making up the majority of the french population Gauls we’re largely ignored or looked down upon in the historiography until the revolution- nobility saw themselves as Franks.

    Basically the moral of the story is Edward 3 was a coward who was afraid of the French and cowardly waged war against the innocent and land to insure his victories . A king with NO Honor...

      um, 30 minutes into this, cowardly seems odd... yes burning villages was insane... but these french attacked britanny... neither of them at that point were thinking rationally... those who tried to talk sense into them were both rebuked... it became personal, and other people were fighting a war of pride with no winners at all...

      there were no winners in this war... no clear goals... just carnage...after a while not even that made sense... cowardice gave way to chaos...

He moved to the U.S. to attend Purdue where he decided he would settle in the U.S. for good. When I heard 2:08:38, I paused the video, rubbed my hands against my forehead and groaned "Oh nooo"

      England wasn't even ruled by the English. It was France x France, and that's why the war happened. England? Its kings still spoke French until 1400, but afterwards it still had the same French culture, same French dinasty.

      @@Yellow-kp9gs I will repeat it here like you did it:
      Yet he and his own Aristocracy had French blood and culture. They weren't even Normans, they were from a dinasty from other region of France, the French kept settling in the country. Like i said, the king of England spoke French until 1400, and French was still used in courts after that. The English language's vocabulary is 58% Latin because of that, it was already a French culture. The current aristocracy of England still has a bit of French DNA. The English like to see things in nationalistic ways, always diminishing others and raising themselves, it was a separate colony of the French ruled by a French aristocracy until 1400, period.

      @@Yellow-kp9gs "English" LOL. They were speaking French at the times, and even the English you claim sounded more like Latin than a Germanic language, most of its vocabulary was French, that French colonialism was already embedded in the English culture and language. Do you think "language" is a Germanic word? LOL. What a about "pork vs pig"? If you count only sophisticated speech, it is even more overwhelmingly French.

      @@EVEUX Once again genetically they had multiple inheritances, hence why they celebrated their anglo Saxon, Norman, French and Breton heritage in various histories they commissioned- hell they even linked the “kings touch” to their Anglo Saxon heritage from Matilda.
      At this point the king wasn’t a Norman- more Anglo french his nobility we’re definitely english, hell many even questioned why they were going to war in France, further showing the disconnect to their culture.
      Like I said most kings of England also spoke English, Richard actually lost control of England while on crusade because John accused his councillors of being “foreign” as they couldn’t speak a word of English (amongst other things too tbf).
      The language part is debatable as the percentages change but it’s core was still old English.
      The current aristocrats can trace their heritage to Alfred the great too, that statement means nothing.
      Ironically you fail to see that France wasn’t United culturally at this point, especially compared to England, most of France didn’t even speak french and would have been unable to communicate.

      Not at all, the Valois won the Caroline Phase (1364-1389) and the Lancastrian Phase (1415-1453), the rest was a kind of Cold war, without battle (1389-1415), and indeed Plantagenêt's victories. It's not 99% of the War.
