Answer 2

Correct answer is Philip VI of France took English land.

Step-by-step explanation:

First option is the correct answer as Philip VI took control over the lands that Edward III had in France. Of course, the main reason of dispute was the throne of France which Edward believed belongs to him.

Second option is not correct as Edward later started invasion of France.

Third option is not correct as Edward died (1377) during the war, so this can-t be a cause.

Last option is not correct as Philip VI was fighting to preserve throne of France and of his Valois dynasty.
