Joan lived in the 15th Century, a time when Europeans believed Divine intervention played a role in all matters of life. This likely is the reason why a teenage peasant girl from a tiny town was able to gain access to the exiled French royal, Charles VII, and convince him that she was sent by God. Charles gave Joan an army, and she fought bravely to make him king. Then he allowed his enemies to burn her at the stake. She is France’s greatest heroine. She is also my personal role model. When I was 14, I wrote an essay about Joan; I wanted to grow up to be brave and bold like her.
