You do know The English court didn't even know Joan of arc was burnt at the stake till about a fortnight later & they didn't care. British scholars made few loosely based fan ficts about her. Rouen Normandy that under Religious & English Merchant rule with confusing mixed Anglo-Franco nobility literally told Joan of arc stop earing Men's attire or nights harness which she refused hence they burnt at her at the stake. She wouldn't listen nor comply to the courts of Normandy so they all lost their patience with her for acting as man & her claiming to vision from god which was against the pope-church's interest in general. She literally made herself a martyr by Irritating those in Normandy.
Joan is the "Deus Vult" meme personified. Singular focus, no tactics, and all vibes. The best part is it somehow worked lmaooo (until it didn't, ofc, but it was fun while it lasted)
@@JackRackam To me she's more of the Adepta Sororitas from WH40K. Faith so strong that mega bad vibes (chaos, psykers, and the English) can't affect you.
@@Willie5000 Considering that the Sisters of Battle were reduced to being glorified cheerleaders for a while, I'd say that Joan generally gets more respect from GW.
The funny part is that in the context of that century, a peasant requesting an audience with a nobel because they had divine visions was not actually considered a strange thing.
Fun fact about the Bishop who had her burned, Pierre Cauchon. After the war ended he was posthumously excommunicated by the pope, basically saying he was now in hell for breaking canon law by killing a martyr (she wouldn’t become a saint until the 20th century) for the sake of secular goals.
Wasn't killing her an actual requirement for her to become a martyr in the first place? Like, she wouldn't have become one had he not have her killed? So it is pretty much owed to him that she became a martyr and therefor a saint to begin with.
@ becoming a martyr/saint is complicated Basically since she died for her canonical beliefs she was always a saint/martyr and the bishop therefore unknowingly killed one. Like the guys that killed Jesus don’t get particularly good press because they did the thing he needed to do to come back
would've been nice you mentioned her promotion from mascot to Captain France after doing what Captain America did and stormed into battle on her own, winning nonstop
Charles II's utterly exhausted energy hits close af as a retail worker lol He has the "I just worked a double meat department shift on Christmas Eve" vibes lmao
A former retail worker here too. Yeah, he's totally like: "I'm not paid enough to pretend IGAF about your customer experience. And yes, that being the wealthiest person in the kingdom, still WAY underpaid for the amount and kind of S I have to deal with from you. Sure, go and complain - they had to look for a few years for somebody patient and resilient enough to agree to work for them full time in this position for more than a month".
Charles the 2nds reaction to meeting Joan is maybe the funniest shit I've seen all week. Dead pan cynical characters in the face of overly energetic, slightly crazy characters always tickle my funny bone.
Funny thing, something like that actually happened, but not with Charles. I don’t remember the exact details, but a particularly cynical commander, who was not La Hire, sarcastically said he’d support her if the weather became more favorable, in the middle of a storm. It stopped immediately. From that point on, he was one of her biggest supporters.
Fun fact, we know very little about Jehanne la Pucelle, proof, see the thousand and thousand of comments, no one agrees ! About 20,000 books on this story and they are all different ! Yet, we know a lot more about Charles VII, Yolande d'Anjou, the mastermind behind this story including her son, René d'Anjou !! We have no images/paintings from Jehanne la Pucelle yet a beautiful painting of Charles VII, famous mistress, Agnès Sorel ! We don't even know her name, Jehanne never used during her lifetime that particular family name ''d'Arc '' ... ...
@@RayB1656can you source you last claim? We have court testimony and the official enoblement papers that all refers to her family as the d’Arcs (or d’Ay, Tart or Darc depending on the locality it was written in, written French had not been standardized yet) and the transfer of their surname to the noble “du Lys”. They also had local arms roles as they were a landed family, so there’s pre-Jeanne documentation of the family surname. “Jeanne la Pucelle” seemed to be more of a “stage name” for her, given it was her war cry.
@@zandaroos553 During the trial, she was asked what was her name , she said Jehanne la Pucelle which meant a ''servant'' in 1430. There are no ''court testimony'' that Jehanne was using the family ''d'Arc'' ! She NEVER used that particular name during her lifetime ! The ''apostrophe'' in d'Arc, was not invented yet, in 1430, coming from Italy later. Jacques used ''Dallis'' before 1430 and his sons used '' Daylis'' later in life. We all know that particular family was transformed to '' du Lys '' and Darc with Charles VII !! Her mother' name was Elizabeth (Isabeau) Romée de Salm de Vouthon ( she was from the Vouthon-Bas region, and from a small noble family from the Vosges area. Elizabeth used Rommé since it was her mother' name who had travelled to Rome for the 150th anniversary of Francis Assisi . Jehanne la Pucelle was NOT a ''stage name'' !!!
I was thinking the exact same thing; the puppets were really expressive in this one, with great use of easing, and the intro to the Burgundians was just *chef's kiss *
Also, like 30 years after she died, there was another trial that basically said: ''To the people who convicted Joan, no YOU are actually the heretics.''
@ReaperCH90 It doesn't matter grammatically - a lot of gendered versions of job titles have already fallen out of fashion, so unless you're also insistent on, for example, calling female doctors "doctoresses" (real word, just not really used anymore,) this feels like an odd sticking point.
To be fair Joan feels more like she would made a decent lieutenant in the military as far as she had skills as a front line officer and to a certain extent tactician but not so much strategy or politics and you should of added Yolonda of Aragon to the video.
@ianyork2655 Jehanne la Pucelle had all the necessary skills, remember , she captured and arrested Franquet d'Arras, infamous English pirate, including all his men, in the Loire Valley. Charles VII' army tried and failed ! She used small mobile cannons on wheels, a first , ...she blasted him out of his hideout. Jehanne la Pucelle had a friend...René d'Anjou, which will become the new Duke of Lorraine. René d'Anjou was a master in Medieval warfare and chivalry !! I agree concerning Yolande d'Anjou, she was the mastermind behind all the scenes of this Joan' story ! She was in control, she had the authority, not Charles ! And, on the contrary, Jehanne knew about politics... Sigismund I , Holy Germanic Empire to the English lords, to the Bishop of Metz, Charles II, the Duke of Lorraine and his wife Margarete von der Pfalz... ...and furthermore, she was a ''diplomat'' ... When William Glasdale was killed at the Tourelles, 07 May 1429 and fell in deep water, Jehanne insisted that his body had to be recovered and brought back to the English aristocracy ! It was done ! Again, when William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk was taken prisoner at Jargeau, including all the English lords, she saved them all, sending them all by boat to Orléans ! All the French soldiers and mercenaries wanted to execute the Duke of Suffolk and his entourage since the battle had been costly !
@@RayB1656 Yeah I do agree she had her moments and in a lot of ways she was an amazing lieutent but I feel like the moment she went pass a captain I feel like her more frontal assault nature would of started costing her
@@ianyork2655 I do not believe we should mentioned Joan as a '' captain or a lieutenant '' of an army. She was mainly an advisor, named by Yolande d'Anjou, the mastermind behind the scene. She had the authority, not Charles. Various army leaders tried everything to distance Joan from the decision making war council in Orléans. Do not forget this is still a Feudal system, a French army is an exaggeration. This will come later. When Joan failed in front of the St Honoré Paris gate, she was sent to the north of Paris, enemy territories, mainly Burgundian, it was just a question of time that she would be captured.
@@vextex9719 '' illeterate'' you said ! I wonder why an ''illiterate girl'' without education, ignorant, uninformed, a backward peasant, would be invited by Charles II, Duke of Lorraine and his wife Margarete von der Pfalz, in 1428, eight months before she left for France ? I wonder how she could have faced, by herself, alone, the Bishop of Metz, in Tull, Holy Germanic Empire when she had to explain at the high ecumenical Court, why she was refusing to marry the fiancé her father had chosen for her, a few years earlier .... ? I wonder how a peasant, could have sent missives to Sigismund II, Emperor, Holy Germanic Empire...? How an illiterate peasant to send a letter from Tours, to the Church of Fierbois that she wanted to receive the famous sword of Bertrand du Guesclin !!! Should I go on ? There were no ''miracles'' in this story ; her journey in France was short...a few months only, an entrapment set-up was organized in Compiègne...she was easily captured !
They did call her a witch publicly, though it wasn't as supported during the trial, which did *try* to set up a veneer of legitimacy and impartiality. It ended up more or less a draw as Joan told them they couldn't disprove she *wasn't* hearing an angel's voice, and she couldn't prove she definitively *did*. So in the end, they got her most directly on crossdressing, which was unquestionable. They also tried a couple torture strategies, such as shaving her, starving her, trying to prove she wasn't a virgin, therefore no angel would talk to her, or something something devil's bitch, etc. She was too stubborn to crack under that, so they shifted tactics to the crossdressing-being-unnatural and unholy thing.
@@evangilbert5251 The funny thing is that she crossdressed during trial because some English guy wanted to... huh... do stuff with her that would make her no longer a virgin. They were desperate to prove her a fraud and were not above despicable acts.
@christianweibrecht6555 seriously .. no berserk peasant no girl no lony peasant no defeated troops since the English were still in ''France'' for another 25 years after her death !! This political story is mainly a dilemma between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians... a civil war in France. Charles VII will try to make it as a European conflict, involving England, Scotland, the Holy Germanic Empire, Spain and the Lombards. In 1435, the Armagnacs and Burgundy made peace, the English- Burgundy Alliance was dismissed and 15 years later, England was going home !!
I would've made a comparison between Joan and a ferret, but she wasn't insane enough to pull off that impression. Still love how adorably funny she is in this though. Edit: IT TOOK ME THIS LONG TO TAKE NOTE OF THE MONTY PYTHON REFERENCE!? FOR SHAME!!

@@vextex9719 everything east of Germany is still a land of mystery and wonder to me (Cold War ended in my childhood). So Olga of Kiev and Tamar of Georgia would be in my top five.
I like your dry defeatist take on the dauphin. Guy was obviously a pragmatist of the highest order. Most of the histories about him are French in origin so him being resigned or tired doesn't fit their preferences. He's always aloof and cautious, things good monarchs SHOULD be. Pragmatic and resigned to the role is what good kings are, though it can be harder to explain. Harder still, perhaps, to particularly stinky french peasants. Those most peasant-y of medieval peasants.
When it comes to the quality of the video it is again amazing and I love you humour, but you did Joan kinda dirty. She was actually quite a good commander. Especially talented with cannons and sieges.
The nanny knight was in my opinion the best part of the video. I admire his patience and calmlness in the face of a rabid teeneger girl. I have failed such battle many times and respect him for not loosing his cool.
What makes Joan of Arc interesting is that Charles VII had had others "Joans" before hand and ones afterwards. Just none of them had the impact as Joan
this in incorrect, Agnés Sorel had a greater impact on Charles VII. She came also from the court of René d'Anjou. Agnés Sorel was probably poisoned, yet she the one who made Charles VII aware, at last, of France serious situation was after the death of Joan in 1431. Charles VII, Regnault de Chartres, bishop and main advisor to Charles, Georges de LaTrémoulle and his wife , Catherine had tried and were successful in ''removing'' Joan from the decision making council ! Charles' advisors wanted a truce with the English-Burgundian Alliance where Joan wanted to use military force ... two very opposite views to save Charles VII. True, the were other women who tried to influence the aristocracy, yet they were not serious. All men of importance had religious advisors, card readers and astrologers by their side at all time, a Medieval fashion at the time. ( the famous one, Nostradamus )... Same as today, Medieval folks wanted to know the future !!
Joan of Arc does make the (actually more than) Hundred Years War more abridged! She really does arc up upon the English and (spectacularly girlfails at) the Burgundians!
Love the videos keep it up. I really really just do not understand why your videos dont get way more, views ive always assumed these get like 10x the view count they do.
Her story sounds so ridicoulous Like imagine any other war where one side is losing until out of nowhere a little girl appears and turns the tide Like imagine Steiners counterattack led by a little girl and it succeeds
this political story is not ''ridiculous'' ! Jehanne didn't just appeared, it had been in the planning for at least a year, since 1428 especially when she met Charles II, Duke of Lorraine and Yolande d'Anjou and her son René in Nancey. The Armagnacs reacted slowly to the English' advance towards Orléans. However, Yolande d'Anjou paid for all the mercenaries and all the supplies for the push towards Orléans... the Scottish troops were ready, men at arms were coming from various regions, example, Gilles de Rais had brought the most men, Yolande also brought in the Duke of Brittany and his army, the Genoese crossbowmen had arrived ... ... and Jehanne la Pucelle also arrived early May 1429, at last, everything was ready. The English troops just left one early morning seeing in front of them a larger amount of soldiers than they had for the siege...they certainly made a show at the Tournelles, yet they were doom... where the siege was never completed, the eastern side being wide opened. The ''tide'' had turned months and months before the 7th of May 1429 !
Karenna Foley is a very talented voice actress, I'm so glad you brought her in on this. And a great video as always! I'm gonna go throw money at your Patreon now.
She's so commonly portrayed in fiction either as a saint with literal blessings from God or as a brilliant tactician and commander that seeing her as a quirky hyperactive girl with bits of religious fanatism seems like a neat challenge of pace.
We Americans just watch until Germany gets involved. Seeing how Germany doesn't exsist yet (I'm not counting the German states!) We sit back and watch!
Sadly, America would not exist and be a thing for the next 300 years. Impossible to side with anyone. To relate, imagine the American Civil War. Except England side with the Confederacy (here: the Burgundian) in order to grab the 13th colonies back under their rule. That is roughly the last stage of the 100 years War. Very roughly. In context, England was seen as a shithole by their monarch who saw themselves French, and had little to no respect for the English. They claimed French territory, then the Kingdom. Of course, England wasn't a shithole. It was mainly a rural country which didn't enjoyed as much technological or cultural progress that France or Italy enjoyed at the time. Things changed a lot since! For a longtime, England was way less populated than France until... Black Death which was -25% English and a bloody *-50% French.* That Thanos snap on France lead the country in chaos and Civil War. The English King saw this, jump on the occasion and try to grab as much as he could as if it was an all-you-can-eat buffet. When England really catch-up up was during the Industrialization. The demographic transition lead to a Population Bomb. From 1750 to 1900, England went from 6M to 30M, basically a ×5 (England, not the UK). France didn't have such Population Bomb: only 20M to 40M (×2). If France had the same growth, they would 170M people in France today (half of the US!). We don't really know why France skipped that Population Bomb. Probably the French revolution, including a mix a early secularism and the Napoleonic draft that lead many French to die in battle. Before that, France always been seen as the center of Europe due to its huge population starting the early medieval era. The rise of England as a competitive, then equal power, then stronger power than France came much much later in the last 200 years.
I feel like this video gravely undermined Joan's contribution for the sake of comedy and chunk the French's wins to just luck. Even a comment pointed out that she was rewarded with a real military position. So the fact the video doesn't even mention this makes me heavily doubt this video's authenticity. Heck, it reminds me of a twitter thread that debunked one of this channel's videos, pointing out how they priortize comedy over actual research. And honestly i can't disagree. This video really makes it seem that no one likes Joan. And while it's true she was thirsty for British blood extremely, she had plenty of supporters in the French courts and divisions of military command. Heck, her advice was sort out by military commanders, unlike how she's portrayed in this video as being a nuisance. From now on, I'm gonna take every video from this channel with a pinch of salt.
Except it was the Bergundians who turned her over following both legal trials and virginity checks from the other French already.....sooool Unless you were there ofc for an eye witness account that contradicts historical record ..
Loved this video it's amazing! Love the more political take on Joan of Arc in the context of the larger 100 years war. Love the depiction of St. Michael the Archangel like, yeah this is a guy who works for the version of God who really really cares if the King of Norway believes he has a half brother or not.
It was not a war, England against France ! ( An aristocratic struggle .) This will come later. England population in 1429 .... 2 millions France population in 1429 ... 11.5 millions ! The English troops were in ''France'' for another 25 years after Joan' death in 1431. What really made the difference .... Yolande d'Anjou brought in the Duke of Brittany and his army and Burgundy left the English Alliance in 1435 and sided with France.
Ok but why did it pop into my head that Joan just busted down a wall to the court and it just went like A teenage girl? *Puts armor on* Joan of Arc the teenage girl
You misrepresent the saint. She never asked for English blood, she always asked them to leave before. You didn’t speak about the thing that we have the most proof about : her trial. She said so many simple and profound things during it, you can understand she was not the way you depicted her.
2:32 I think Nelson would work better in revolutionary france “Haha, your heads gone” “Haha, you survived unaliving yourself and now your jaw is barely attached” or “haha, you fell victim to your own purges” (these two refer to Robespierre if you didn’t know)
Im'french, it's funny, but to be more accurate, you forgot to talk about the first trial of Joan in Poitiers with french juge.... Because, this jugement prooved that she wasn't mad or something else (apologize for my horrible english)
Yeah, I personally do not think she was mentally ill. She showed no signs of it, really. I know for some people vivid religious experiences should be enough to have your committed. But I personally think that is ridiculous.
Probablement aucune maladie . Durant son court séjour en ''France'' elle se comporte comme tout autres jeunes femmes de 21 ans. Concernant Poitiers, le tout était sous la vigilance et le grand contrôle de Yolande d'Anjou, avant l'arrivée de Jehanne et pendant son séjour chez le Dauphin et ailleurs. En plus, Charles VII était sur place à Poitiers et observait chaque interventions concernant Jehanne. Son propre confesseur était un des membres du comité !! Yolande d'Anjou est la pierre angulaire de ce récit, celle avec l'autorité incluant son ''fils adoptif'' Charles VII ! Pas vraiment de procès à Poitiers et surtout les trois tests physiques administrés étaient facilement passables... Jehanne a été recruté par René d'Anjou après sa visite chez Charles II, Duke de Lorraine et sa femme, Margarete von der Pfalz, en 1428 à Nancey. (Mes excuses pour le ''français'') !
normally I love your stuff but this seems more about Charles VII than Joan. Would have been interesting to have more of the video about her and maybe had a charles video in his own right.
If it weren't for this girl, England would've conquered France, America never would've gotten independence, and for all we know, democracy wouldn't even exist, or at least in a much less influential form today. Joan was an incredible person who proved what unbridled faith in God, King, and Country can truly achieve when you're faced with utter destruction. She saved her country and was punished for it and was thus martyred. She is absolutely a saint and she is an inspiration to us all, no matter what faith, creed, or ideology we come from. Also I always wondered why good King Charles didn't try to rescue Jeanne d'Arc. This video pretty much explains it considering how much of a loose cannon she was. It's sad she died the way she did but I can understand Charles's decision in the end.
You are stretching the band way to much, America and Democracy ? Maybe not. In 1429, they were still in a Feudal system, the concept of a untied France will come a lot later. The population of England in 1429 was about 2 million and in France, 11 million !! True, Joan was instrumental with the 12,000 Scottish troops in France at the siege of Orléans. Yolande d'Anjou had paid and brought in all the military and food supplies from Blois to Orleans , end of April 1429, including the all mercenaries . Joan arrived a week later. They were ready. Yet, the English troops were still in ''France'' for another 25 years after Joan' death in 1429 ! What really made the difference is when Yolande d'Anjou brought in the Duke of Brittany and his Breton' army and when Burgundy left the English Alliance and supported at last, the Armagnacs, in 1435, four years after the death of Joan in 1431. Concerning a rescue for Joan ... Charles VII or the Armagnacs were not in a position to engage the English troops in 1431. No money and no men. That is why Regnault de Chartres requested a ''truce'' with the English aristocracy. Also, no ransom was requested from the English . The ''good'' king Charles VII was NOT particularly a great individual, certainly not the best example of a Christian. He was a murderer ( Montrereau Bridge), a womanizer, reject his wife Marie, had tens of mistresses, the most famous was Agnès Sorel and her cousin , the 16 year old Antoinette de Maignelais , a thief in later year, ( Jacques Coeur incident ) and even his own son, tried to remove him ... Albanach tírghrách.
I do got to say jack im just a lil sad you didn't mention the fact the whole reason burgundy join against France and the king of madness made the treaty with Henry V was because a good chunk of France including the Royal family thought the crown prince just murdered John The fearless (or at least consented to his assassination) and the heir could not be seen as a murderer. But then again that's a big rabit hole tangent that has the risk of you ending up like conspiracy chart Charlie from it's always Sunny 😂.
I noticed for some reason I forgot to put the word against the french so I made it seem like burgundy was just like "oh you just murdered our greatest leader, oh well we'll still join you!" When it reality it was more like "REEEE, we're joining the English now!"
Jehanne la Pucelle was not a ''Frenchwoman'' , she came from the Barrois region ! That is why she said , early February 1429.... '' I am leaving for France '' !! In 1429, they still were in a Feudal system... the concept of a united France will come a lot later ....
@@Tricky2109 ''Ethnically French '' ...we do not know this, possibly , maybe not. Her parents probable names .... Elizabeth Romée de Salm de Vouthon-Haut, a small aristocratic family from the Vosges area and Jacques Daylis ! Jehanne was in Tull, 1428, Holy Germanic Empire, Diocese of Metz to annul a marriage promise made by her father a few years earlier. She was 20 and she went alone without the permission of her parents. Joan' fiancé was not happy. ( Bishop of Metz ) ... what language they were speaking in Tull ?
Eh, I feel like Jack went to the Luc Besson school of pissing on Jeanne d’Arc. At least Shakespeare had the excuse that he was a “god-d*** filthy English” (no joke: the French referred to the English as “go’dons” during the Hundred Year War as a shorthand for exactly that)

Fun fact about the Bishop who had her burned, Pierre Cauchon.
After the war ended he was posthumously excommunicated by the pope, basically saying he was now in hell for breaking canon law by killing a martyr (she wouldn’t become a saint until the 20th century) for the sake of secular goals.
And everyday Pierre burns hotter in hell.
Wasn't killing her an actual requirement for her to become a martyr in the first place? Like, she wouldn't have become one had he not have her killed? So it is pretty much owed to him that she became a martyr and therefor a saint to begin with.
@ becoming a martyr/saint is complicated
Basically since she died for her canonical beliefs she was always a saint/martyr and the bishop therefore unknowingly killed one.
Like the guys that killed Jesus don’t get particularly good press because they did the thing he needed to do to come back

Funny thing, something like that actually happened, but not with Charles. I don’t remember the exact details, but a particularly cynical commander, who was not La Hire, sarcastically said he’d support her if the weather became more favorable, in the middle of a storm.
It stopped immediately. From that point on, he was one of her biggest supporters.
Joan of Arc has the power of God and Anime on her side
Too bad it was kind of a hentai/horror anime at the end there...
At least she'll live on in Fate.

Fun fact, we have more complete records of Jeanne that some actual kings of the time. That's how big of a deal she was 😊
Fun fact,
we know very little about Jehanne la Pucelle, proof, see the thousand and thousand of comments, no one agrees !
About 20,000 books on this story and they are all different !
Yet, we know a lot more about Charles VII, Yolande d'Anjou, the mastermind behind this story including her son, René d'Anjou !!
We have no images/paintings from Jehanne la Pucelle yet a beautiful painting of
Charles VII, famous mistress, Agnès Sorel !
We don't even know her name, Jehanne never used during her lifetime that particular family name ''d'Arc '' ... ...
@@RayB1656can you source you last claim? We have court testimony and the official enoblement papers that all refers to her family as the d’Arcs (or d’Ay, Tart or Darc depending on the locality it was written in, written French had not been standardized yet) and the transfer of their surname to the noble “du Lys”. They also had local arms roles as they were a landed family, so there’s pre-Jeanne documentation of the family surname.
“Jeanne la Pucelle” seemed to be more of a “stage name” for her, given it was her war cry.
@@zandaroos553
During the trial, she was asked what was her name , she said Jehanne la Pucelle which meant a ''servant'' in 1430. There are no ''court testimony'' that Jehanne was using the family ''d'Arc'' ! She NEVER used that particular name during her lifetime !
The ''apostrophe'' in d'Arc, was not invented yet, in 1430, coming from Italy later.
Jacques used ''Dallis'' before 1430 and his sons used '' Daylis'' later in life. We all know that particular family was transformed to '' du Lys '' and Darc with Charles VII !!
Her mother' name was Elizabeth (Isabeau) Romée de Salm de Vouthon ( she was from the Vouthon-Bas region, and from a small noble family from the Vosges area.
Elizabeth used Rommé since it was her mother' name who had travelled to Rome for the 150th anniversary of Francis Assisi .
Jehanne la Pucelle was NOT a ''stage name'' !!!
Is it just me, or has Jack really upped his animation skills?
I was thinking the exact same thing; the puppets were really expressive in this one, with great use of easing, and the intro to the Burgundians was just *chef's kiss *
I especially like the revolving heads.
Also, like 30 years after she died, there was another trial that basically said: ''To the people who convicted Joan, no YOU are actually the heretics.''

@ReaperCH90 It doesn't matter grammatically - a lot of gendered versions of job titles have already fallen out of fashion, so unless you're also insistent on, for example, calling female doctors "doctoresses" (real word, just not really used anymore,) this feels like an odd sticking point.
@@glenmurie Aquí puse un comentario y aquí se queda TH-cam hdlgp
To be fair Joan feels more like she would made a decent lieutenant in the military as far as she had skills as a front line officer and to a certain extent tactician but not so much strategy or politics and you should of added Yolonda of Aragon to the video.
@ianyork2655
Jehanne la Pucelle had all the necessary skills,
remember , she captured and arrested Franquet d'Arras, infamous English pirate,
including all his men, in the Loire Valley.
Charles VII' army tried and failed !
She used small mobile cannons on wheels, a first , ...she blasted him out of his hideout.
Jehanne la Pucelle had a friend...René d'Anjou, which will become the new Duke of Lorraine.
René d'Anjou was a master in Medieval warfare and chivalry !!
I agree concerning Yolande d'Anjou, she was the mastermind behind all the scenes of this Joan' story ! She was in control, she had the authority, not Charles !
And, on the contrary, Jehanne knew about politics... Sigismund I , Holy Germanic Empire to the English lords, to the Bishop of Metz, Charles II, the Duke of Lorraine and his wife Margarete von der Pfalz...
...and furthermore, she was a ''diplomat'' ...
When William Glasdale was killed at the Tourelles, 07 May 1429 and fell in deep water, Jehanne insisted that his body had to be recovered and brought back to the English aristocracy !
It was done !
Again, when William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk was taken prisoner at Jargeau, including all the English lords, she saved them all, sending them all by boat to Orléans !
All the French soldiers and mercenaries wanted to execute the Duke of Suffolk and his entourage since the battle had been costly !
@@RayB1656 Yeah I do agree she had her moments and in a lot of ways she was an amazing lieutent but I feel like the moment she went pass a captain I feel like her more frontal assault nature would of started costing her
@@ianyork2655
I do not believe we should mentioned Joan as a '' captain or a lieutenant '' of an army.
She was mainly an advisor, named by Yolande d'Anjou, the mastermind behind the scene. She had the authority, not Charles.
Various army leaders tried everything to distance Joan from the decision making war council in Orléans.
Do not forget this is still a Feudal system, a French army is an exaggeration.
This will come later.
When Joan failed in front of the St Honoré Paris gate, she was sent to the north of Paris, enemy territories, mainly Burgundian,
it was just a question of time that she would be captured.
She was literally illeterate, that she lasted for so long was a miracle by itself
@@vextex9719
'' illeterate'' you said !
I wonder why an ''illiterate girl'' without education, ignorant, uninformed, a backward peasant, would be invited by Charles II, Duke of Lorraine and his wife Margarete von der Pfalz, in 1428, eight months before she left for France ?
I wonder how she could have faced, by herself, alone, the Bishop of Metz, in Tull, Holy Germanic Empire when she had to explain at the high ecumenical Court, why she was refusing to marry the fiancé her father had chosen for her, a few years earlier .... ?
I wonder how a peasant, could have sent missives to Sigismund II, Emperor, Holy Germanic Empire...?
How an illiterate peasant to send a letter from Tours, to the Church of Fierbois that she wanted to receive the famous sword of Bertrand du Guesclin !!!
Should I go on ?
There were no ''miracles'' in this story ; her journey in France was short...a few months only, an entrapment set-up was organized in Compiègne...she was easily captured !
England: seriously, our forces were repeatedly defeated by troops rallied by a berserk peasant girl?!
They did call her a witch publicly, though it wasn't as supported during the trial, which did *try* to set up a veneer of legitimacy and impartiality.
It ended up more or less a draw as Joan told them they couldn't disprove she *wasn't* hearing an angel's voice, and she couldn't prove she definitively *did*.
So in the end, they got her most directly on crossdressing, which was unquestionable.
They also tried a couple torture strategies, such as shaving her, starving her, trying to prove she wasn't a virgin, therefore no angel would talk to her, or something something devil's bitch, etc.
She was too stubborn to crack under that, so they shifted tactics to the crossdressing-being-unnatural and unholy thing.
@@evangilbert5251 The funny thing is that she crossdressed during trial because some English guy wanted to... huh... do stuff with her that would make her no longer a virgin. They were desperate to prove her a fraud and were not above despicable acts.
@@evangilbert5251 totally false !!
@christianweibrecht6555
seriously ..
no berserk peasant
no girl
no lony peasant
no defeated troops since the English were still in ''France'' for another 25 years after her death !!
This political story is mainly a dilemma between the Armagnacs and the Burgundians... a civil war in France. Charles VII will try to make it as a European conflict, involving England, Scotland, the Holy Germanic Empire, Spain and the Lombards.
In 1435, the Armagnacs and Burgundy made peace, the English- Burgundy Alliance was dismissed and 15 years later, England was going home !!
I would've made a comparison between Joan and a ferret, but she wasn't insane enough to pull off that impression.
Still love how adorably funny she is in this though.

I like your dry defeatist take on the dauphin. Guy was obviously a pragmatist of the highest order. Most of the histories about him are French in origin so him being resigned or tired doesn't fit their preferences. He's always aloof and cautious, things good monarchs SHOULD be. Pragmatic and resigned to the role is what good kings are, though it can be harder to explain. Harder still, perhaps, to particularly stinky french peasants. Those most peasant-y of medieval peasants.
Karenna Foley did a excellent job VAing for Joan in this one. Felt right. Oscar for the screaming at the end!
Finally the fate apocrypha prequel i was waiting for
Man, none of this was in the anime. I hate it when studios just ignore what happened in the manga.
When it comes to the quality of the video it is again amazing and I love you humour, but you did Joan kinda dirty. She was actually quite a good commander. Especially talented with cannons and sieges.
I agree another TH-camer did a excellent video on her but I can’t spill is nam but it started with a m
Joana had a much smarter and cooler answer than that When they ask her if she was in Gods grace during the trial and she never had a formal education.
Man that intro didnt hit till over 2 mins into the video! Thats shows how complex this war was!
Nice, new Jack Rackam warm right out of the oven!
Hell yeah!
Never underestimate the effect of moral.
The nanny knight was in my opinion the best part of the video. I admire his patience and calmlness in the face of a rabid teeneger girl. I have failed such battle many times and respect him for not loosing his cool.
The street I grew up on was called Joan de Arc
Pretty irnoic that you’re called devils advocate
What makes Joan of Arc interesting is that Charles VII had had others "Joans" before hand and ones afterwards. Just none of them had the impact as Joan
Very consistent with the "mascot" interpretation
this in incorrect, Agnés Sorel had a greater impact on Charles VII.
She came also from the court of René d'Anjou.
Agnés Sorel was probably poisoned, yet she the one who made Charles VII
aware, at last, of France serious situation was after the death of Joan in 1431.
Charles VII, Regnault de Chartres, bishop and main advisor to Charles,
Georges de LaTrémoulle and his wife , Catherine had tried and were successful in
''removing'' Joan from the decision making council ! Charles' advisors wanted a truce with the English-Burgundian Alliance where Joan wanted to use military force ... two very opposite views to save Charles VII.
True, the were other women who tried to influence the aristocracy, yet they were not serious.
All men of importance had religious advisors, card readers and astrologers by their side at all time, a Medieval fashion at the time. ( the famous one, Nostradamus )...
Same as today, Medieval folks wanted to know the future !!
Joan of Arc does make the (actually more than) Hundred Years War more abridged! She really does arc up upon the English and (spectacularly girlfails at) the Burgundians!

Her story sounds so ridicoulous

Like imagine Steiners counterattack led by a little girl and it succeeds
this political story is not ''ridiculous'' !
Jehanne didn't just appeared, it had been in the planning for at least a year, since 1428 especially when she met Charles II, Duke of Lorraine and Yolande d'Anjou and her son René in Nancey.
The Armagnacs reacted slowly to the English' advance towards Orléans.
However, Yolande d'Anjou paid for all the mercenaries and all the supplies for the push towards Orléans... the Scottish troops were ready, men at arms were coming from various regions, example, Gilles de Rais had brought the most men, Yolande also brought in the Duke of Brittany and his army, the Genoese crossbowmen had arrived ... ...
and Jehanne la Pucelle also arrived early May 1429, at last, everything was ready.
The English troops just left one early morning seeing in front of them a larger amount of soldiers than they had for the siege...they certainly made a show at the Tournelles, yet they were doom...
where the siege was never completed, the eastern side being wide opened.
The ''tide'' had turned months and months before the 7th of May 1429 !
Karenna Foley is a very talented voice actress, I'm so glad you brought her in on this. And a great video as always! I'm gonna go throw money at your Patreon now.
She's so commonly portrayed in fiction either as a saint with literal blessings from God or as a brilliant tactician and commander that seeing her as a quirky hyperactive girl with bits of religious fanatism seems like a neat challenge of pace.
As an American I don’t know who to side with .
We Americans just watch until Germany gets involved. Seeing how Germany doesn't exsist yet (I'm not counting the German states!) We sit back and watch!
Sadly, America would not exist and be a thing for the next 300 years. Impossible to side with anyone. To relate, imagine the American Civil War. Except England side with the Confederacy (here: the Burgundian) in order to grab the 13th colonies back under their rule. That is roughly the last stage of the 100 years War. Very roughly.
In context, England was seen as a shithole by their monarch who saw themselves French, and had little to no respect for the English. They claimed French territory, then the Kingdom. Of course, England wasn't a shithole. It was mainly a rural country which didn't enjoyed as much technological or cultural progress that France or Italy enjoyed at the time. Things changed a lot since!
For a longtime, England was way less populated than France until... Black Death which was -25% English and a bloody *-50% French.* That Thanos snap on France lead the country in chaos and Civil War. The English King saw this, jump on the occasion and try to grab as much as he could as if it was an all-you-can-eat buffet.
When England really catch-up up was during the Industrialization. The demographic transition lead to a Population Bomb. From 1750 to 1900, England went from 6M to 30M, basically a ×5 (England, not the UK). France didn't have such Population Bomb: only 20M to 40M (×2). If France had the same growth, they would 170M people in France today (half of the US!).
We don't really know why France skipped that Population Bomb. Probably the French revolution, including a mix a early secularism and the Napoleonic draft that lead many French to die in battle. Before that, France always been seen as the center of Europe due to its huge population starting the early medieval era. The rise of England as a competitive, then equal power, then stronger power than France came much much later in the last 200 years.
You can tell the Archangel is French because of the cigarette. Also the accent.
I feel like this video gravely undermined Joan's contribution for the sake of comedy and chunk the French's wins to just luck. Even a comment pointed out that she was rewarded with a real military position. So the fact the video doesn't even mention this makes me heavily doubt this video's authenticity. Heck, it reminds me of a twitter thread that debunked one of this channel's videos, pointing out how they priortize comedy over actual research.
And honestly i can't disagree. This video really makes it seem that no one likes Joan. And while it's true she was thirsty for British blood extremely, she had plenty of supporters in the French courts and divisions of military command. Heck, her advice was sort out by military commanders, unlike how she's portrayed in this video as being a nuisance.
From now on, I'm gonna take every video from this channel with a pinch of salt.
I agree that this vid cast Joan in an inflammatory light.
Except it was the Bergundians who turned her over following both legal trials and virginity checks from the other French already.....sooool
Unless you were there ofc for an eye witness account that contradicts historical record ..
Joan is always a tool for King Charles.

Love the depiction of St. Michael the Archangel like, yeah this is a guy who works for the version of God who really really cares if the King of Norway believes he has a half brother or not.
Thank you, Madame Joan, for not letting the English turn France into another Ireland.
It was not a war, England against France ! ( An aristocratic struggle .)
This will come later.
England population in 1429 .... 2 millions
France population in 1429 ... 11.5 millions !
The English troops were in ''France'' for another 25 years after Joan' death in 1431.
What really made the difference ....
Yolande d'Anjou brought in the Duke of Brittany and his army
and Burgundy left the English Alliance in 1435 and sided with France.

Yeah, I personally do not think she was mentally ill. She showed no signs of it, really. I know for some people vivid religious experiences should be enough to have your committed. But I personally think that is ridiculous.
Probablement aucune maladie . Durant son court séjour en ''France'' elle se comporte comme tout autres jeunes femmes de 21 ans.
Concernant Poitiers, le tout était sous la vigilance et le grand contrôle de Yolande d'Anjou, avant l'arrivée de Jehanne et pendant son séjour chez le Dauphin et ailleurs.
En plus, Charles VII était sur place à Poitiers et observait chaque interventions concernant Jehanne. Son propre confesseur était un des membres du comité !!
Yolande d'Anjou est la pierre angulaire de ce récit, celle avec l'autorité incluant son ''fils adoptif'' Charles VII ! Pas vraiment de procès à Poitiers et surtout les trois tests physiques administrés étaient facilement passables...
Jehanne a été recruté par René d'Anjou après sa visite chez Charles II, Duke de Lorraine et sa femme, Margarete von der Pfalz, en 1428 à Nancey.
(Mes excuses pour le ''français'') !
normally I love your stuff but this seems more about Charles VII than Joan. Would have been interesting to have more of the video about her and maybe had a charles video in his own right.
If it weren't for this girl, England would've conquered France, America never would've gotten independence, and for all we know, democracy wouldn't even exist, or at least in a much less influential form today. Joan was an incredible person who proved what unbridled faith in God, King, and Country can truly achieve when you're faced with utter destruction. She saved her country and was punished for it and was thus martyred. She is absolutely a saint and she is an inspiration to us all, no matter what faith, creed, or ideology we come from.
Also I always wondered why good King Charles didn't try to rescue Jeanne d'Arc. This video pretty much explains it considering how much of a loose cannon she was. It's sad she died the way she did but I can understand Charles's decision in the end.
You are stretching the band way to much, America and Democracy ? Maybe not.
In 1429, they were still in a Feudal system, the concept of a untied France will come a lot later.
The population of England in 1429 was about 2 million and in France, 11 million !!
True, Joan was instrumental with the 12,000 Scottish troops in France at the siege of Orléans. Yolande d'Anjou had paid and brought in all the military and food supplies from Blois to Orleans , end of April 1429, including the all mercenaries .
Joan arrived a week later.
They were ready.
Yet, the English troops were still in ''France'' for another 25 years after Joan' death in 1429 !
What really made the difference is when Yolande d'Anjou brought in the Duke of Brittany and his Breton' army and when Burgundy left the English Alliance and supported at last, the Armagnacs, in 1435, four years after the death of Joan in 1431.
Concerning a rescue for Joan ...
Charles VII or the Armagnacs were not in a position to engage the English troops in 1431.
No money and no men.
That is why Regnault de Chartres requested a ''truce'' with the English aristocracy.
Also, no ransom was requested from the English .
The ''good'' king Charles VII was NOT particularly a great individual,
certainly not the best example of a Christian.
He was a murderer ( Montrereau Bridge), a womanizer, reject his wife Marie,
had tens of mistresses, the most famous was Agnès Sorel and her cousin , the 16 year old Antoinette de Maignelais , a thief in later year, ( Jacques Coeur incident ) and even his own son, tried to remove him ...

I do got to say jack im just a lil sad you didn't mention the fact the whole reason burgundy join against France and the king of madness made the treaty with Henry V was because a good chunk of France including the Royal family thought the crown prince just murdered John The fearless (or at least consented to his assassination) and the heir could not be seen as a murderer. But then again that's a big rabit hole tangent that has the risk of you ending up like conspiracy chart Charlie from it's always Sunny 😂.
