Listen Later

In this first episode of "Sleep with History" we'll traverse the battlefields, castles, and corridors of power during a period marked by honor, treachery, innovation, and resilience. We are about to explore the Hundred Years' War, a monumental conflict that shaped European destiny. 

Discover what led to this century-long struggle between two mighty powers, England and France. What was the role of legendary figures like Joan of Arc and Henry V? How did technological innovations like the devastating longbow forever change warfare? And what impact did this prolonged conflict have on the daily lives of ordinary people?

More than a battle for territorial control, learn how the Hundred Years' War was a clash of cultures, identities, and rivalries simmering for generations but also a period of creativity and innovation, even amidst the turmoil of war.

Gain insights into the decline of feudalism, the emergence of modern nation-states, and the birth of a new era in European history. Join us on this voyage to a fascinating era of knights and kings, battles and sieges.
