The Franco-Flemish War (1297–1305) was a conflict between the Kingdom of France and the County of Flanders, largely driven by territorial disputes and economic rivalry. The war began when the French King Philip IV sought to assert control over Flanders, a wealthy and strategically important region. The Flemish, led by Count Guy of Dampierre, resisted French domination, leading to several key battles, including the Battle of the Golden Spurs in 1302, where the Flemish forces achieved a significant victory against the French knights. Despite this success, the war eventually ended with the Treaty of Athis-sur-Orge in 1305, which required Flanders to pay reparations to France and surrender key territories, though it retained a degree of autonomy. The war had lasting impacts on both regions, influencing the balance of power in medieval Europe and highlighting the growing tensions between emerging nation-states and regional powers.
