Answer: b) Joan of Arc emerged as a unifying symbol of national pride for the French people.

Explanation:

By the end of the war, Joan of Arc served to heighten a feeling of national identity and fate, allowing the French to take the city of Orleans from the English. Although the war, the Bubonic plague, and famine had destroyed France, a spirit of nationalism and union arose, and eventually, it led the passage from a feudal monarchy to a centralized state.
