Discover the remarkable saga of Joan of Arc, the peasant girl turned war leader who shifted the destiny of France. Our latest episode of Double Helix's Blueprint of Nations is a tapestry of courage, divinely inspired battles, and the shaping of national identity. You'll be riveted by the account of how a teenage visionary donned armor and defied the societal constraints of 15th-century France to become an enduring emblem of hope and resistance.

Embark on the journey with us as we trace Joan's footsteps from the humble beginnings in Domrémy to the Siege of Orléans, where her strategic brilliance and inspirational presence breathed new life into the French cause. We examine the complexities of her divine visions and the transformational role they played in the Hundred Years' War, culminating in the crowning of Charles VII. Joan's story is a galvanizing reminder that the power of unwavering faith and conviction can change the course of history, leaving an indelible mark on a nation's spirit.
