What remained the English kings' continental possession after Louis' campaigns?

  • Normandy

  • Brittany

  • Gascony

  • Aquitaine

Answer

Gascony, the lone remaining English territory on the continent, stood as a testament to the successful campaigns of the French king, Louis. Previously boasting extensive holdings across France, the English possessions dwindled under Louis' relentless military prowess. Gascony, a region in southwestern France, thus became the last vestige of England's continental power, a stark contrast to their former dominance in the region.
