'Dieu et mon droit', which means 'God and my right [to the French throne]', was the battle cry of King Edward III [November 13, 1312 - June 21, 1377] of England at the Battle of Crécy on August 26, 1346. The monarch's presence, his compelling cry, and his army's adept use of the cannon and the English longbow were among the factors that led to a swift and sure victory despite the army's being outnumbered anywhere from 3:1 to 10:1 by the heavily armored French. The battle was the beginning of the Hundred Years' War, 1337-1453, between the House of Valois in France and the Plantagenet House of Anjou in England over which heirs should occupy the French throne.
