Which country did Henry VI have a disputed claim over?

  • France

  • Scotland

  • Ireland

  • Wales

Answer

Henry VI had a disputed claim over France because he was the great-grandson of Charles VI of France, who had died without a male heir. Henry VI's claim to the French throne was contested by Charles VII of France, who was the son of the late Charles VI's brother Louis. The English and French fought over the French throne during the Hundred Years' War, which lasted from 1337 to 1453.
