Battle for Brittany: The War of the Breton Succession
The War of the Breton Succession (1341–1364) was a conflict over the Duchy of Brittany following Duke John III's death without an heir. Two main claimants emerged: John of Montfort, supported by England, and Charles of Blois, backed by France. The war was part of the larger Hundred Years' War, reflecting the broader struggle between England and France. Major battles included the Battle of La Roche-Derrien and the naval Battle of Winchelsea. The conflict was marked by sieges, naval engagements, and shifting alliances. It ended with the Treaty of Guérande in 1365, where John of Montfort's son, John IV, was recognized as the Duke of Brittany, solidifying the Montfort line's control over the duchy. The war had significant political implications, contributing to the ongoing Anglo-French rivalry and shaping the future of Brittany's political landscape.
