The 100 Years War 1337-1453
The war was actually a series of conflicts between France and England that began in 1337 and ended in 1453. It began with Edward III claiming to be not only the King of England, but King of France as well.

War of the Roses 1455-1487
A series of civil wars fought in medieval England between the House of Lancaster and the House of York. The name of the battle is based on the badges used by the two sides, the red rose for the Lancastrians and the white rose for the Yorkists.

1337 to 1490 a time at the height and splendor of the medieval period, where great achievements and chivalric deeds were all common as were the treacherous tragedies and villainous actions of its people.

New cities were founded, great castles constructed, and universities, convents and cathedrals built.

Terrible wars were fought, the Black Death extinguished nearly a third of Europe's population, and famine and marauding warriors were scourges to the population.
