Absolutely right. They'd even have to go back to the 100 years war IMO.

You may have a point. It's hard to think of a French historical figure in the past half-millenium to rival Joan of Arc. And if an actual Joan turned up in modern-day France, she'd probably be held in prison as a troublemaker.

Well, some see Joan of Arc as part of the problem.

Some say that England really did have a right to the throne of France.
