The Lily and the Sword

Because Fuck Yeah That Girl was already taken and Fuck Yeah Big Brother France and That Girl was too long.

This blog is dedicated to those Hetalia fans who love France x Jeanne d'Arc. There really is nothing more to say on the content of this blog

Included in this will be some Hundred Years War history and much Jeanne d'Arc information, since everyone can use some

Please enjoy

Note to the haters: This blog is not meant to offend in any way, shape, or form. This is personally my favorite France ship and I look at it in a COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY NON-SEXUAL WAY. Joan of Arc was a Virgin Saint and that is an important part of her history.
This Ship is sweet and kind and overwhelmingly sad, not sexy or sexual in any way.
Thank you.

Jeanne d’Arc was given the name La Pucelle d’Orleans after she was able to lift the siege of Orleans in only nine days. In doing so, she was able to gain prominence and proved she was no ordinary (or insane) girl.
After several victories through her Charles VII was finally coronated as King at Riems, thus ending the dispute over who was to get the French throne.
Later, when Jeanne is to be tried for Heresy after her capture on May 23rd, 1430, King Charles VII is given the option to retrieve and save her. He declines, allowing the reason he was able to become King to be tried and executed a little more than a year after her capture.
La Pucelle= the Virgin (Maid, in this case)

“May 31st”
Picture says:“I can wait for thousand years if it can meet you again.”
I’m assuming it’s supposed to say:“I can wait for a thousand yearsIf I can/could meet you again.” 
May 30th, 1431 was the date of Joan of Arc’s execution by burning at the stake. May 30th is now, in the Catholic faith, known as The Feast of Saint Joan of Arc to celebrate her.
I think this picture was supposed to be May 30th. Unless the artist is referring to the day after her execution
