The '''Mad War''' ({{lang-langx|fr|la Guerre folle}}) was a late medieval conflict between a coalition of feudal lords and the French monarchy. It occurred during the regency of [[Anne of Beaujeu]] in the period after the death of [[Louis XI]] and before the majority of [[Charles VIII of France|Charles VIII]]. The war began in 1485 and ended in 1488.
 
The principal lords involved were [[Louis XII of France|Louis II of Orléans]], the cousin of the King (and future Louis XII of France); [[Francis II of Brittany]]; [[René II, Duke of Lorraine]]; [[Alain d'Albret]]; [[John IV of Chalon-Arlay|Jean de Châlon, Prince of Orange]]; and [[Charles, Count of Angoulême]]. Other leading lords supported the revolt, including [[Philippe de Commines]] and Odet d'Aydie, Count of Commines and Governor of Guyenne.
