Hi everyone!

Hope this helps!

The correct answer is D. Becoming a military commander and led the French to break the English siege

Explanation:

Joan of Arc has been historically known for being a French heroine and one of the youngest women in leading an army. Indeed, Joan of Arc helped the French army to defeat England during a conflict known as the Hundred Years War as she commanded the army and through her actions, the English siege (military blockage) in various places including Orléans ended; all this began when she was just a teenager (around seventeen years old). Moreover, her actions were considered as unthinkable because during her time (15th century) it was not common for women to participate in the army; and it was even more uncommon they were leaders or held important positions.

According to this, the option that completes the statement is "Becoming a military commander and led the French to break the English siege" because Joan of Arc who is the French girl described was recognized for being a military commander and ending the English siege in France.
