I’ll give you an example, from our Dordogne <\/strong>and Loire Valley<\/strong> tours.<\/strong> One of the striking features about the Dordogne is the way that the history between England and France going back to the 12th century shaped the landscape we see today. This is a region that saw 4 centuries of fighting in a 500 year period, beginning with the marriage of Henry Plantagenet, heir to the English throne, to Eleanor of Aquitaine. The Dordogne river was the boundary between Aquitaine, belonging to the King of England, and France. There was fighting for 200 years along the Dordogne, finally erupting into The Hundred Years War in 1337. <\/p>\n
