| rdfs:comment | - The Siege of Orléans was a battle between the French and the English during the Hundred Years' War where the English were trying to destroy the French's lovely city of high tax rates and low humour. Joan of Arc, an earlier form of Abraham Lincoln that was treated badly because of her gender (female) and her obsessive religious ideas about God and the Virgin Mary happened to be passing by before the Siege began. The outcome of the Siege is what made Joan loved by what was left of Orléans, and made the English Generals beating themselves up for losing to a bitch like her.
- The Siege of Orléans (1428 – 1429) marked a turning point in the Hundred Years' War between France and England. This was Joan of Arc's first major battle military victory and the first major French success to follow the crushing defeat at Agincourt in 1415. The outset of this siege marked the pinnacle of English power during the latter stages of the war. The city held strategic and symbolic significance to both sides of the conflict. The consensus among contemporaries was that the English regent, John Plantagenet, would succeed in realizing Henry V's dream of conquering all of France if Orléans fell. For half a year the English appeared to be winning, but the siege collapsed nine days after Joan's arrival.
