Best Answer

Joan of Arc was important because her actions resulted in the crowing of Charles VII as King of France, as well as galvanizing the French people into renewed efforts to drive out the English. Joan of Arc is now recognized as a national heroine in France. She is an important religious figure, whose faith in God led her to risk her life and safety as a woman to try and save her country. Her faith never faltered, even as she was being burned at the stake (she reportedly screamed Jesus' name as she was burned). She was made a saint for her faith and her actions. She is an important woman in history. She led an army as well as any man, at great risk to her own safety. She proved that woman can do what men can.
