The Hundred Years War was a succession of battles between royal dynasties competing for land, power and thrones. Its battles saw the decline of the knight, the rise of the longbow, the arrival of the cannon. It reshaped armies and social status; it established the modern maps of England and France. Construct Henry the V and his Longbow archers who will defeat a much larger French Army at Agincourt. Construct Joan of Arc and the army she led ten years later to turn the tide against the English. Reenact scenes from this conflict guided by among others, the words of Shakespeare (written 150 years after.) Construct a castle to besiege and defend.
