Solution

The correct option is A France and England
The Historical Hundred Years' War was fought between France and England. It lasted 116 years from 1337 to 1453. The cause of war was succession to the throne when the Charles IV of France died in 1328 without an immediate male heir Edward III of England believed himself to be the rightful heir to the throne through his mother whereas the French did not want foreign ruler and Philip VI of France declared himself to be the new King of France. The disagreement leads to an outbreak of long-lasting war. Several wars were fought between this period.
