He was once the King of France and he was so mentally ill and schizophrenic that he would run down the hallways of his palace screaming like a madman and would shit everywhere.
sanest fr*nch"man"
Having an insane King is not good for the country, his uncles started a civil war and the English decided to invade, royal authority was so low, the noble knights ignored the Constables orders at Agincourt and they rushed with their cavalry into the murderous arrows of the famous longbowmen whose predecessors had already beaten the French half a century earlier (Crécy, Poitiers).It took a true miracle for France to recover from the disaster that Charles VI left behind, and that true miracle did happen when Joan of Arc helped the next king, Charles VII to be crowned in Reims.
>>18509869>that true miracle did happen when Joan of Arc helped the next king, Charles VII to be crowned in Reims.Which is funny, because Charles VII was a piece of shit human being who made his son, aka THE UNIVERSAL SPIDER, look good in comparison.At least he got the death he deserved.
>>18509869>It took a true miracle for France to recover from the disaster that Charles VI left behind, and that true miracle did happen when Joan of Arc helped the next king, Charles VII to be crowned in Reims.This is Valois ex post embellishment of what happened.In 1429, Anglo-Burgundian forces were overstretched and the Armagnacs were almost completely unthreatened south of Orleans (except of course for the Anglo-controlled Bordeaux area).Saying that England would have won if Orleans had fallen is like saying the Germans would have made the USSR outright collapse by taking Moscow
>>18510095Just look at this map, this was the alleged nadir when the situation was supposedly "desperate"
>>18510241Maps and feudal realities where the dauphin was reliant on personally impressing the nobility to get soldiers are different things. If Orleans fell no one would give levy to the Dauphin.
