Conflicting claims to French throne, historical conflicts and issues of legality and vassalage in France, English kings owned a lot of land at times in France, but were technically subject to the King of France for their French lands. And the French king could interfere with affairs in French lands, i.e, English kings french barons and vassals are pissed? Then they can appeal to the French king and have him interfere. Also the French kin can generally fuck around and try and revoke titles etc, it was a frequent cause of conflict. So basically conflicting claims and obligations.

Imagine

>Be English noble
>Life's FUCKING EASY, tax peasants and enjoy no labor ever
>King does something you don't like
>Try to appeal
>you own land that is french and British at the same time
>This keeps happening,fuckery from both sides and nobles play favorites because as shoes
>France finally gets pissy and declares war
>You are aquitaine
>Ohfuck.canvas
