Yes, both Philip of Valois and Edward III claimed the right to the Spanish throne through their descent from Philip IV of France. Philip of Valois claimed the throne through his mother, Isabella, while Edward III claimed it through his mother, Isabella, who was the sister of the last son of Philip IV. This conflict eventually led to the beginning of the Hundred Years' War.

The conflict that arose between the English and the House of Valois resulted in what is known as the Hundred YearsÃ? War. The above statement is false, as this conflict revolved around the French throne and not the Spanish. EdwardÃ?s claim of inheriting it through his motherÃ?s bloodline was denied due to Salic Law and the throne was given to Charles, the Count of Valois.

Effectively, the House of Valois came to power in 1328 with the accession of Philip VI. There were several contenders for the French crown, however - each with solid legal claims - and the war of succession (now known as the Hundred Years' War) would leave the Valois dynasty in uncontended posession of the French crown only in 1453.
