Edward the Black Prince, the eldest son of King Edward III of England, is famous for his military prowess during the Hundred Years' War, particularly for his victories at the Battles of Crécy in 1346 and Poitiers in 1356. He was known for his chivalric qualities and leadership skills, earning a reputation as a formidable knight and commander.
