Joan of Arc became a legend because, as a mere teenager, she organised French resistance against English domination, leading the charge which attacked the English and forced them to retreat from Orléans in 1429. As she led further charges, she helped turn the Hundred Years War unequivocally in France's favour.

Joan of Arc was victorious, but in 1430 she was captured by the Burgundians and sold to the English. She was accused of heresy and witchcraft. Ultimately, she was burned at the stake, on 30 May 1431.
