B. The king of England also claimed to be the king of France.
Brief explanation: The war began largely because Edward III of England claimed the French crown after the French capetian line died out in 1328. The French rejected his claim (invoking Salic law) and chose Philip VI, and disputes over English possessions in France (like Aquitaine) and feudal rights then escalated into the Hundred Years' War.
