Brittany
Brittany was a duchy on the Armorican peninsula in north-western France. In 1337 the childless John III of the House of Dreux ruled from Vannes.
His death in 1341 sparked a succession war between the French-backed Charles of Blois and the English-backed John of Montfort. The Montfort victory at Auray in 1364 left the new duke a French vassal. Francis II died in 1488, leaving Brittany to his daughter Anne, whom Charles VIII of France married. In 1532 the Breton estates voted to unite the duchy with the French crown.
