Episode notes

In 1428, a young girl from the village of Domrémy, France, audaciously set out to meet the heir apparent to the French throne, the Dauphin, and told him what he had to do to defeat the English occupying her country.

She claimed that she was told what to do by God.

Against all odds, the Dauphin took her advice, and it worked. After a series of military victories, the Dauphin was crowned king, and the young girl went on to become one of the greatest heroes in French history.

Learn more about Joan of Arc, her incredible story, and how it changed French history on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
