Yes, it had to come. But it looks like things went your way in France. Of course, that opens up the age old problem...does England do better if they are embroiled in European affairs or if they stay separate and focus the eyes over the horizon to the west?

Of course, there is always both.

Once more the English shall rule France. ​

January 1423 the English armies were able to defeat the defenders in Berri, the so called capital of Dauphin.

In Brittany the castle of Morriban was burning along side with it's defenders.

The Armies that had attacked trough Gascogne and Poitou had managed to take Auvergne from the French.

The Dauphin armies desperatly tried to beat back the advancing English armies but they didn't have much success.

In February 1424 James king of Scotland and Joan Beaufort were married in Southwark.

/me puts on quintissential English hat

The correct term, my dear fellow, is arse. Ass refers to that domesticated equine otherwise known as a donkey, and only ill-educated colonials use it to refer to the nether regions of human anatomy. There's a good chap.

A better sounding word would be 'Arsch'. Sounds more Germanic.

And we shall have peace.​

The Counties of Anjou and Maine were promised to Lord Bedford, regent of France.

James I was crowned in the north securing English interest in Scotland and giving them security against threats from the Isles.

Internal trade in the realms of England started to flourish even though the nation was in war.

Bretagne soon fell to the English armies and Brittany was now fully under English control.

July 3rd 1424 Duke of Brittany accepted the offer that came from England. They submitted themselves to King Henry VI and became vassals.

After losing their only ally Dauphin was forced to accept the peace offer of England and cede the counties of Anjou and Maine.

After the end of the war Lord Bedford issued an close watch on the county of Anjou in case rebels trying to cut of the English supply lines.

Every province you take is nice and all but what really matters is Paris and you've got that one. Nice round borders and plenty of allies all ready for Round II in 5 years, right?

We have come to claim our lands​

To honor the statements of Henry V, England declared that the Holy Land was going to be their. Of course this was purely a political move to gain the support of the Pope.

The population of Orléainais were happy to become part of England.

The inhabitants of Orléainais were considering to cede to Burgundy but the English court was strictly against it.

January 2nd 1426 Davis Warwick, a noble man from Warwick took command of the Armies in Paris.

The Regent of England decided that it was time to take the dutch lands and January 12th England crossed the border of Brabant.

Regent of France, Lord Bedford himself joined the war against Brabant.

In June 15th the scholars of the Royal academies found ways of improving the cultural infrastructure of England.

It doesn't matter what size off an war we wage as we always win
​

June 30th 1426, first Dutch fortress in Artois fell to the English armies headed by Warwick and Bedford.

Lord Bedford himself led his armies to siege the castle in Brabant while Warwick led the other armies towards Holland.

January 24th 1427 the tired Dutchmen in Holland surrendered themselves to the English armies.

In March 1427, pretender to the throne of Hesse came to England and asked them to support his claims. Lord Regent of England didn't see any harm in supporting his claims.

In April 1427 the Dutch finally agreed to submit under the rule of the English and gave up their land becoming the protectorate of England.
