Aquitaine
Aquitaine was a duchy in southwestern France, governed from Bordeaux. In 1337 the French king Philip VI confiscated the fief from Edward III of England, who claimed the French crown, beginning the Hundred Years' War.
The Treaty of Brétigny in 1360 gave Edward sovereignty over Aquitaine, governed by the Black Prince, but France soon recovered most of it. In 1453 French victory at Castillon ended English rule, and Aquitaine was absorbed into the French royal domain.
