Legacy
Religion
Joan of Arc has come to mean many things to many people. One of the most important legacies she left behind is the Bible's teachings of "with God all things are possible." Joan was described as being a simple young girl in the small village of Rouen where she grew up. The only aspect about her that was different was that she had a deep devotion to God. Joan of Arc was teased at times by some of the other children for having such a strong connection to God. When you look at where she came from and then at all that she accomplished, it is really hard to come up with a reasonable explanation for her life other than to help do God's work (What). Basically, the legacy she left behind was to stay strong to your beliefs, whether your family or friends agree or disagree with them.
Women's Rights
Joan of Arc also subliminally left another legacy behind for women that I feel the world overlooks. Back then, women were not allowed to go to war, but that did not stop her from doing what she wanted to do. She wanted to fight for her country, so she disguised herself. Just like Jackie Robinson is considered a hero to many because he refused to give up baseball just because he was black, Joan of Arc is a hero because she refused to not fight for her country just because she was a women. The legacy she left behind for women is one I feel is overlooked and is definitely important.
