Joan of Arc is nicknamed the "Maid of Orleans." She was a peasant girl who claimed to have received divine guidance, leading her to support Charles VII during the Hundred Years' War. Her leadership in the Siege of Orléans in 1429 was pivotal in turning the tide for the French against the English. Joan's bravery and subsequent martyrdom made her a national heroine and a symbol of French unity.
