Henry V is a historical dramatic play following the reign of Henry V of England and his conquest of France. The bulk of the action within the play takes place before and immediately after the era-defining Battle of Agincourt at which Henry's English forces triumph soundly over France's armies. Henry is shown as a mature ruler in the prime of his life, and the play shows him entering the world of statecraft and generalship.
