Answer
The Auld Alliance was a military alliance between France and Scotland that existed for over 400 years. It was first formed in 1295 when the Scots sought assistance from the French in their war against England. The alliance was renewed several times over the years, and it played a key role in many Scottish battles. However, the alliance ended in 1560 when the French king, Francis II, died.
