Wars between England and France were not unusual; but in the mid-fourteenth century there began a series of campaigns called, by nineteenth-century historians, the 'Hundred Years' War'.  The struggle for the throne of France dominated the polotics and warfare of most of Europe, drawing in not just France, England, and Scotland, but the Empire and its satellites, the Iberian kingdoms, and spilling over into Italy also, creating for ranging military alliances.

For the sake of this web site, I will try to break this conflict down into manageable piece, and roughly into four time frames, as can be seen on the left.
