Hundred Years War

Depiction of the Battle of Maupertuis around 1400

The Battle of Maupertuis on September 19th brings a major victory for England in the Hundred Years War . The Black Prince , son of the English King Edward III. , takes the French King John II prisoner. His son, the Dauphin Karl , leaves the battlefield before the end on the instructions of his father and is scorned by the French nobility. On September 29th, Karl moves into Paris and takes over government affairs in France . The estates of northern France, from whom Karl hopes to approve new taxes to finance the war, are summoned for October 17th . Instead, however, he is confronted with an aristocratic frond around Bishop Robert le Coq, who openly speaks out in favor of King Charles II of Navarre as regent. Karl then relied more on the bourgeois class around the head of the Parisian trade guild Étienne Marcel , who called for far-reaching reforms of the royal state, but supported Charles's governorship. In winter Karl travels to Metz, where he meets with his uncle, Emperor Karl IV. The emperor has been in an offensive alliance with England against France since 1348 , which, however, had not yet become active. In order to guarantee that the emperor would keep still, Charles swore him on Christmas Day for the Dauphiné and, as the deputy of his underage brother Philip the Bold , for the Free County of Burgundy .
