Which territory was reduced in size and returned to Edward II?

  • Brittany

  • Normandy

  • Guyenne

  • Aquitaine

Answer

Guyenne, a territory in southwestern France, was reduced in size and returned to Edward II of England. This was a result of the Treaty of Paris in 1303, which ended the Anglo-French War. The treaty stipulated that Edward would give up his claim to the Duchy of Gascony, which included Guyenne, in exchange for recognition of his sovereignty over the Duchy of Aquitaine.
