Anglo-Bretons Victory at Mauron

The Battle of Mauron saw Anglo-Breton forces decisively defeat the French army, securing control over much of Brittany. The battle was a part of the War of the Breton Succession, which arose from a dynastic dispute over the duchy of Brittany. It took place near the town of Mauron, where Anglo-Breton forces, led by Charles de Blois, faced off against the army of John of Montfort. The victory bolstered the Montfortian cause and intensified the conflict between England and France.
