Joan of Arc experienced a number of unusual events that made her life historically important. Specifically, she was a teenage girl who lead armies into battle and won. Furthermore, Joan of Arc credited her victories to angels and saints who she claimed were guiding her.
She led the french army and broke the siege of Orleans and won the battle of patay. Not only this but she also revived the courage of the french army and provided the basis of the french recovery.
She fought for the French and made the English mad. So they burned her. She did this because she heard voices and they were telling her to do this. She thought it was God giving her a special task. :)
ACTUALLY- they burned her because they thought she was a witch.
Before Joan of Arc led the French in the war, the French were losing badly. It's probable that the French would have lost to the English without her. As a result, England would have ruled France, which would affect history. In fact, without France as an ally in the American Revolution, we would have lost that.
She got involved when the people from the french told that if she did not join them the french would kill her.
She saved France.
