Joan of Arc appeared in the middle and late period of the Hundred Years' War between Britain and France. Centennial War from 1337- 1453. In the middle and late period, Britain's Henry VI in northern France announced his succession as king of France, while Charles VII in southern France fled, which meant that France had lost half of it. Then, in June 65438 +0428+10/October 65438, the British army besieged Orleans. If this battle fails, the south of France will be exposed to Britain.

Joan of Arc appeared at this time and persuaded Charles VII to let her lead the troops to clear the way. After the successful customs clearance, she counted several cities in succession. In July, she captured Lance, and Charles VII was crowned king, with Joan's bodyguard at his side. The Burgundy Sect's problems in the design of wooden stakes are not detailed here. However, when the British army was burned to death at the stake in 3 1 year, the general trend was gone, but it was not until 37 years that Paris was recovered.

So it can be said that this is a story full of French romanticism and personal heroism, and Bernard Shaw also wrote an opera for it. Unfortunately, I bought a translated version of Joan of Arc by beijing institute of technology press, which is really poor in quality, so I haven't seen it completely. Let's look at the machine flip (oh, my brother, I'm going to kick the translator's ass).

In addition, the French campaign in Empire II was Joan of Arc. So Joan of Arc was a symbol of France's national consciousness at that time. As for whether this can really be played, I remember reading some books that it is mainly a spiritual symbol. After all, she is a peasant girl. If she can fight, it will be genius+apocalypse.
