Breton Civil War

The Breton Civil War was a series of conflicts in the early 14th century within the Duchy of Brittany, primarily between noble factions vying for control. It involved internal disputes over succession and power, often fueled by alliances with neighboring France and England. The war led to political instability, shifting allegiances, and violence, ultimately shaping Brittany’s autonomy and relations with surrounding kingdoms. This internal strife reflected broader tensions of the period, including feudal loyalties and territorial ambitions, and concluded with the stabilization of rulership under the local noble houses.
