  throne, so two other men claimed his throne. One
  was French and the other was the King of England.
  The French man took all the power of becoming
  the King. The English king did not like this. He
  then invaded, and this began, a long conflict
  between England and France that came to be called
  the Hundred Years War. Joan of Arc, a teenage
  peasant girl who rallied the French troops and
  turned the tide of the Hundred Years war.

24
Results of the war

• In, England Parliaments power grew because the
  King needed Parliaments approval to raise money
  to pay for the costly war. As Parliament gained
  more influence, the King lost power.
• In, France the King gained power because he
  became popular with his nobles. Fighting the
  English, grew a bond between them. After the war
  the nobles supported the King.
• Democracy in France will have to wait.........

Black death
26
WHERE IT CAME FROM AND HOW IT SPREAD??

• The plague originally came from central and
  eastern Asia. Traders unknowingly brought rats
  carrying the disease to the Mediterranean ports.
  From there quickly swept through out most of
  Europe. Fleas that fed on infected rats passed on
  the plague to the people.

27
What disease was it and What happened to it??

• The disease was called the Bubonic Plague. It
  could be identified by swellings called buboes
  that appeared on victims bodies. The Bubonic
  Plague killed a lot of people, then it just went
  away with only 1/3 of the population alive.

28
Effects on manor life and feudalism/ how many died

• In most places, the manor system fell apart
  completely. There were not enough people left to
  work in the fields. The plague killed millions of
  people in Europe and millions more around the
  world. Europe lost 2/3 of its population, perhaps
  25 million people.
