Did Du know, that there was a time, when english and french were best buddies? It all started, when the french duke William conquered England and became William the conqueror. Those were the days! But then,the french duke Henry Plantagenet became english king. As a duke, he had to obey the french king, but Von being english king, it would have been dishonouring to him to obey. And in 1337, the english king Edward III. claimed to become king of France- that was the trigger of the 100-years lasting war- which lasted 116 years until 1453.
