Before the Battle of Agincourt in 1415, the English faced significant challenges during the Hundred Years' War against France. King Henry V had landed in France with a small army after a series of military setbacks, including a failed siege at Harfleur. The English forces, weakened by disease and fatigue, were outnumbered by a larger French army. However, despite these difficulties, Henry V sought to engage the French in battle, leading to the iconic confrontation at Agincourt.
