Treaty of Troyes
The Treaty of Troyes, signed in 1420 during the Hundred Years' War, was an agreement between England and France. It recognized Henry V of England as the heir to the French throne, bypassing the French Dauphin, who was Charles VII. This treaty aimed to unify the two kingdoms under English rule but was contested by many in France. Following Henry V's death in 1422, the treaty was largely ignored, and the struggle between England and France continued. Ultimately, the treaty's impact was limited, as it did not secure lasting peace or resolve the conflict over the French crown.
