∙ 10y agoThere were three major occasions where the French and English fought each other. First there was the Hundred Year's War in the 14th century: that was because the French threatened British posessions in Normandy and the Bordeaux region, and because the English king claimed the throne of France.
The second time was in the late 17th century when French king Louis XIV was trying to expand French influence all over Europe and England's king William III fought him in the name of the Protestant cause.
The third time was in the early 19th century when the English were fighting Napoleon, because he tried to cripple England economically by forbidding any trade between Europe and England.
After that, England and France never waged war on each other.
