This thread is for discussing The Hundred Years' War.
As you'll see, in this war there were higher forces at play. There are too many conjectures to make so I will just stick to the facts. Everyone is free to join and give his opinion.

The Hundred Years' War (1337-1453) was a series of conflicts fought between France and England for the French throne.

The House of Capet went extinct as a result of the curse Jacques de Molay launched on his enemies while getting burned alive.
Pope Clement V and king Philip IV died in a year of the execution of de Molay. In the next 14 years all the successors of the king followed, dying and leaving no male heir to the now vacant throne.
Despite English claims to the throne, Edward III accepted Philip of Valois as king of France but disputes over the feudal sovereignty of Aquitaine caused the start of the war.

Phase 1 - Edwardian War
The English were successful in the war from the beginning and were almost victorious despite the French resistance in fortified cities. The direction of the war changed during the event called Black Monday which had one of the biggest English armies destroyed by a freak storm: after the initial lightning strike, the fierce winds and the intense cold killed nearly 1000 Englishmen and up to 6000 horses.
The phenomenon convinced the English king to make peace with the French and signed the 1360 Treaty of Brétigny, marking the end of the first phase of the war and procuring a period of peace that lasted 9 years.

Phase 2 - Caroline War
Battles commenced again in 1369 after king Charles V decided to regain Aquitaine despite it being given to the English by the Treaty. This time the French dominated the course of the war and managed to reconquer almost all the territories ceded in the peace treaty and leaving to the English only a few cities on the continent.
Peace was made by Charles VI in 1389.

Phase 3 - Lancastrian War
The first half of this phase of the war was dominated by the Kingdom of England. Initial English successes coupled with divisions among the French ruling class, allowed the English to gain control of large parts of France. In 1420, the Treaty of Troyes was signed, by which the English king married the French princess Catherine and became the regent and heir of France.
The second half of this phase of the war was dominated by the Kingdom of France and, with England losing its main allies, the French forces counterattacked. Charles VII of France was crowned in Notre-Dame de Reims in 1429, and from then a slow but steady reconquest of English-held French territories ensued. Ultimately the English would be expelled from France and lose all of their continental territories, except the Pale of Calais.

The French ended up victorious in this war partly thanks to Joan of Arc, a girl that claimed she received visions of xian figures instructing her to help Charles VII in recovering France from English rule.
She inspired the French and boosted their morale, she also showed prediction abilities and high intelligence. This didn't save her from being burned at the stake by the English allied Burgundians, though.
It is also of note that during Joan's time there were prophecies of a maid who would save France, prophecies that ended up to be true.
One of the people that fought alongside Jean was Gilles de Rais, a rich lord and knight that retired from the war to his estates where he lived an extravagant lifestyle and put up theatrical plays. He was accused of dabbling in the occult, as well as killing children. Under threat of torture he confessed and was sentenced to death. Modern research suggests he was innocent.

The Hundred Years' War weakened the Plantagenet dynasty of England leading to the Wars of the Roses which ended with Henry Tudor on the throne. His allegiance is not clear but his son Henry VIII defied the church and weakened its power. His granddaughter Elizabeth I continued her father's fight against Christianity. Her paintings and more prove that she was a Satanist.

Like always the Jewish factor is of the utmost importance.
Jews were expelled from England in 1290. From France they were expelled in 1306 by the same king that a year later would destroy the Templars. The king took possession of Jewish property and the money lending profession. The successive king called them back in 1315 because the Christians in the money lending business were even worse.
The Jews were finally expelled from France again in 1394 by a king famous for his mental illness.
