The short answer is England and France, it started in 1337 when Edward III of England claimed he had a right to the French throne. Edward and decided to go to war to become king of France. I say that is the short answer because at that time 'France' was not a country as we recognise it today- it was a collection of duchies and regions that (usually) followed a king in Paris. Often the princes and dukes would fight each other and the King. For example in the latter half of the war Henry V took advantage of a massive civil war in France between to rival landed families.

Random fact for you: most historians agree that the war atuallly lasted 116 years not 100!
