Answer 7

Its basic cause was a dynastic quarrel that originated when the conquest of England by William of Normandy created a state lying on both sides of the English Channel. In the 14th cent. the English kings held the duchy of Guienne in France; they resented paying homage to the French kings, and they feared the increasing control exerted by the French crown over its great feudal vassals. The immediate causes of the Hundred Years War were the dissatisfaction of Edward III of England with the nonfulfillment by Philip VI of France of his pledges to restore a part of Guienne taken by Charles IV; the English attempts to control Flanders, an important market for English wool and a source of cloth; and Philip's support of Scotland against England.

Answer 8

Two factors lay at the origin of the conflict: first, the status of the duchy of Guyenne (or Aquitaine)-though it belonged to the kings of England, it remained a fief of the French crown, and the kings of England wanted independent possession; second, as the closest relatives of the last direct Capetian king (Charles IV, who had died in 1328), the kings of England from 1337 claimed the crown of France

Answer 9

so what is it

Answer 10

The English kings during this war, and for a couple hundred years after, claimed that the King of England should also be the King of France.
William the Conqueror became King of England in 1066. He already had land in Normandy. He and many kings after him, did not speak English or consider England home. By the 1300s, they had become English but still controlled those French provinces.
And the honor and land answer is an easy one. Of course it was about honor and land, that's why humans do war.

Answer 13

The English kings controlled some provinces in France. France didn't like that.

The English kings claimed that they should also be king of France.

War is always about land and honor.
