Philip II’s Campaign in Flanders and the English Blockade at Damme (1213 CE)

After Philip II of France abandoned his planned invasion of England, he redirected his army against Flanders, punishing Count Ferdinand of Portugal for his defiance. The French army marched through Cassel, Ypres, and Bruges, before laying siege to Ghent, one of the largest and most important Flemish cities.
