 The  War was a series of wars between England and France. The background of the Hundred Years War went as far back as to the reign of william of conqueror. When william of conqueror became king in 1066 after his victory at the Battle of hestings, he united England with Normandy in France. William ruled both as his own.

In 1328, Charles IV of France died. Charles did not have any sons to take over his land and all his brothers were dead. He did have a sister called Isabella. She was the mother of Edward III and Edward believed that because of this, he should be king of France. However, the French decided that a cousin of Charles, Philip, should be crowned king.

Result-at last only calais was in the ownership of englang.
