If you mean Mesopotamia, then it's the land between the Tigris and Euphrates--part Iraq, part Syria.

If you mean Mespotania, then it's the land between your ass and your twat.

Okay. Scratch the question then. New question:

During the hundred years war, there was a period of relative peace. How long did it last and during what years? When was England entirely forced out?

Probably the longest "lull" in the off and on fighting was from 1387 to 1415 although there was another 20 year "lull" between 1429 and 1449.

On July 17, 1450 there was an engagement at Castillon and it proved to be the final engagement. After being driven out of Northern France the previous few years, England sent a new army to Bordeaux in Southwestern France in attempt to maintain at least some territory in France. In July 1453 the English forces attacked a French force that was besieging the town of Castillon. The attacked was repulsed and the English were routed. Bordeaux became French territory and the final English survivors sailed for home.

Interestingly, after all of these years of fighting, the war ended with no treaty. After claiming all of France as its own in the beginning of the war, England ended up only in possession of the town of Calais.
