What was the result of the hundred year war?

Answer 1

The Hundred Years War inflicted untold misery on France. Farmlands were laid waste, the population was decimated by war, famine, and the Black Death (see http://www.answers.com/topic/plague), and marauders terrorized the countryside. Civil wars (see http://www.answers.com/topic/jacquerie; http://www.answers.com/topic/cabochiens; http://www.answers.com/topic/armagnacs-and-burgundians) and local wars (see http://www.answers.com/topic/breton-war-of-succession) increased the destruction and the social disintegration. Yet the successor of Charles VII, http://www.answers.com/topic/louis-xi-of-france, benefited from these evils. The virtual destruction of the feudal nobility enabled him to unite France more solidly under the royal authority and to promote and ally with the middle class. From the ruins of the war an entirely new France emerged. For England, the results of the war were equally decisive; it ceased to be a continental power and increasingly sought expansion as a naval power.

Answer 2

The Battle of Castillon is officially designed the last battle of the Hundred Years War despite the fact that England and France continued a formal war throughout the two decades that followed. In terms of the military, this war fundamentally changed the common notion that heavy cavalry was the most powerful force an army could boast; thanks to the advent of the longbow, horseback became less of an advantageous position. With new long-distance weapons, any old commoner with a longbow could take down a highly-trained, horse bound knight.
