Profile
Origin
Jeanne d'Arc, also known as Joan of Arc or "The Maid of Orléans," was a national heroine of France, as well as a Catholic saint, who led rench troops to victory during the Hundred Years' War.
Jeanne was born a peasant girl, but as she grew older, she started seeing visions of angels, leading her to believe she was the savior of France and urging her to convince the dauphin Charles for permission to expell english troops, establishing Charles as the rightful ruler.
At first, Charles had doubts about the woman, so he had a council of theologians examine her, declaring her a good person and a good Catholic.
And so, at 17 years of age, Jeanne accompanied by an army, was ordered to take back the city of Orléans, and in a series of battles at the site, the french came out victorious.
During a battle in Compiègne, she was captured by Burgundians and sold to the English for 10,000 francs. She was charged with 70 counts, including witchcraft, heresy and dressing like a man.
Eventually, the now 19 year old girl, was publically executed, being burned at the stake.
Years later, the now king Charles VII ordered an investigation, declaring her innocent of all charges and being designated as a martyr. She was canonized as a saint in 1920 and is the patron saint of France.
