777

was the number of days
that the last Plantagenet,
the best king of England, was allowed to reign.
















On the 778th day the 100 Years' War with France
came to an end - because of the treachery of his Tudor
conqueror-successor,
and the English left France
(apart from the enclave of Calais)
forever.
