Which famous battle between England and France features in Shakespeare's play Henry the Fifth?
The Battle of Agincourt (pronounced a zhin cor) was fought on 25 October 1415 (Saint Crispin's Day), in northern France as part of the Hundred Years' War. The armies involved were those of the English King Henry V and Charles VI of France. Charles did not command his army himself, as he was incapacitated. The French were commanded by the Constable Charles d'Albret and various prominent French noblemen of the Armagnac party. The battle is notable for the use of the English longbow, which the English used in very large numbers, with longbowmen forming the vast majority of their army. The battle was also immortalised by William Shakespeare as the centrepiece of his play Henry V.
