036/100: Joan of Arc

Joan of Arc is famous for her victories and campaigns in the French military. She is the youngest known person to lead troops into a battle at 17 yo. Later, at 19 years old, Joan was captured and tried for witchcraft and heresy (successful women = witches šŸ˜‰). She was burned at stake for her crimes. Many, many years later she was canonized by the Catholic Church for her heroism and piety.
