England and France\n\nThe Battle for Flanders\n\nFlanders had grown to be the industrial center of northern Europe and had become extremely wealthy through its cloth manufacture. It could not produce enough wool to satisfy its market and imported fine fleece from England. England depended upon this trade for its foreign exchange. During the 1200's, the upper-class English had adopted Norman fashions and switched from beer to wine.\n\n(Note that beer and wine were very important elements in the medieval diet. Both contain vitamin and yeast complexes that the medieval diet, especially during the winter, did not provide. Besides, the preservation of food was a difficult matter in that era, and the alcohol in beer and wine represented a large number of calories stored in an inexpensive and effective fashion. People did get drunk during the middle ages, but most could not afford to do so. Beer and wine were valued as food sources and were priced accordingly\n\nThe problem was that England could not grow grapes to produce the wine that many of the English now favored and had to import it. A triangular trade arose in which English fleece was exchanged for Flemish cloth, which was then taken to southern France and exchanged for wine, which was then shipped into England and Ireland, primarily through the ports of Dublin, Bristol, and London.\n\nBut the counts of Flanders had been vassals of the king of France, and the French tried to regain control of the region in order to control its wealth. The English could not permit this, since it would mean that the French monarch would control their main source of foreign exchange. A civil war soon broke out in Flanders, with the English supporting the manufacturing middle class and the French supporting the land-owning nobility.\n\nThe Struggle for Control of France\n\nThe English king controlled much of France, particularly in the fertile South. These lands had come under control of the English when Eleanor of Aquitaine, heiress to the region, had married Henry II of England in the mid-12th century. There was constant bickering along the French-English frontier, and the French kings always had to fear an English invasion from the South. Between Flanders in the North and the English in the South, they were caught in a "nutcracker".\n\nThe "Auld Alliance"\n\nThe French responded by creating their own "nutcracker." They allied with the Scots in an arrangement that persisted well into the 18th century. Thus the English faced the French from the south and the Scots from the north.\n\nThe Battle for the Channel and North Sea \n\nThe French nutcracker would only work in the French could invade England across the English Channel. (The French call it "La Manche," "The Sleeve," for what reason I do not know.) Besides, England could support their Flemish allies only if they could send aid across the North Sea, and, moreover, English trade was dependent upon the free flow of naval traffic through the Channel. Consequently, the French continually tried to gain the upper hand at sea, and the English constantly resisted them. Both sides commissioned what would have been pirates if they had not been operating with royal permission to prey upon each other's shipping, and there were frequent naval clashes in those constricted waters.\n\nThe Dynastic Conflict\n\nThe last son of King Philip IV (The Fair) died in 1328, and the direct male line of the Capetians finally ended after almost 350 years. Philip had had a daughter, however. This daughter, Isabelle, had married King Edward II of England, and King Edward III was their son. He was therefore Philip's grandson and successor in a direct line through Philip's daughter. The French could not tolerate the idea that Edward might become King of France, and French lawyers brought up some old Frankish laws, the so-called Salic Law, which stated that property (including the throne) could not descend thro

The First World War, or (before 1939) the Great War, was a world conflict lasting from August 1914 to the final Armistice on November 11, 1918. The Allied Powers (led by the United Kingdom, France and until 1917 Russia, and, after 1917, the United States) defeated the Central Powers (led by the German Empire, Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire). The war caused the collapse of four empires and a radical change in the map of Europe and the Middle East.

Depends...To which war are you referring?

4 million Irish fought 120 million English to a standstill for 100 years, in spite of repeated attempts at genocide by the English.  Now the Irish prosper (perhaps better than any other country in Europe with help from their US partners in business) while the English languish and look on with envy and hatred.

I'm not sure I totally understand your question.  Yes, centuries usually had about 80 men each and each legion nominally had about 5000 people (although usually less).  The person in charge of a century was called a "centurion".\n*** it's commonly believed that there were a hundred men to a century, and that sounds logical, but it was actually 80.

Write about the 100 years war between France and England. It lasted from 1337-1453, or the Black Death(or Plague) which was from 1348-1349. Another suggestion is writing about Magellan going around the world from 1519-1522.

Both were Greek city-states.  They fought wars against each other in the old Greek epics and histories.  Go to history.com and research it if you want more specifics.

You've got a ton of stuff happening during the first half of the century.  Everything involving both world wars, the first flight, the Bolshevik Revolution, the San Fransisco Earthquake, the stock market crash, the depression on both sides of the Atlantic, lots of stuff.\n\nWhat are you interested in?  It helps a lot if the subject is interesting to you.  Do you want something military, cultural, political, technological, scientific?

Probably Thebes.  Depends on which Kingdom (Old, Middle, New) you want, which millenium BC you want.  Dig into the Ancient Egypt article in Wikipedia.
