The <entity_0> took place on <entity_2>, between the forces of King Charles VIII of <entity_4>, and those of Francis II, Duke of <entity_3>, and his allies. It also effectively precipitated the end of the independence of <entity_3> from <entity_4>. The <entity_5> of <entity_1> also destroyed the power-base of the warring princes. Since the emergence of modern Breton nationalism in the 19th century, the <entity_5> has been portrayed as the moment when <entity_3> lost its independence, despite the three years of struggle which followed it and the continued nominal independence of the Duchy into the 16th century. In the words of Leon Meur, "the <entity_5> of <entity_1> rang the death-knell of Breton independence". The Breton nationalist Célestin Lainé, who sided with Nazi Germany in World War II, stated that his SS-affiliated Bezen Perrot militia was the first Breton force to have fought against <entity_4> since the <entity_5>.
