Agincourt, Battle of
Agincourt, Battle of (October 25, 1415) Engagement between England and France during the Hundred Years' War. The battle took place in modern Azincourt, Pas de Calais,
ne France. Poor French tactics and the superior rate of fire of the English longbow over the French crossbow contributed to the English victory against a much larger French force. Some 6000 French soldiers died in the battle. Henry V of England's success, later celebrated by Shakespeare, gained him France and the French princess Catherine de Valois as his wife.
