Last post about the war's beginning.

Okay, this is my last post on how the war began. After Phillip VI took the French throne, England still had control of a portion of Gascony, which was a point of dispute between the two sides. The events that sparked off the war happened in 1333, when Edward III of England went to war with David II of Scotland, hoping to rule over the entirety of Great Britain. David II was an ally of the French, causing further stress. The war initially was a huge success for the English, forcing David II to flee to France. In 1336, France threatened to seize Gascony if England did not stop the war with Scotland. England refused, and in 1337, the Hundred Years War began.
