Victoria
Edward VII
George V
Edward VIII
George VI
Elizabeth II

Wait, Church of England was founded because Henry VIII wanted a divorce that the Catholic Church did not give him, yet it doesn’t recognize divorces? How ironic.
It does now, Camilla. Though it is irrelevant as Charles and Camilla won't have children.
Henry wanted an annulment not a divorce
@@pedanticradiator1491 It is very difficult for the Church to give an annulment when the couple had children.
Henry made a case that since Catherine of Aragon was married to and (supposedly) consummated with his brother Arthur first she was actually his sister. Therefore their marriage was never recognised and why 5 out of 6 pregnancies lead to death. Wallis Simpson definitely married 2 guys before their deaths, therefore divorce was never an acceptable excuse.
@@lucinae8510 if Catherine of Aragon's marriage to Henry VIII is not recognised, then wouldn't that disinherit Mary I?
"victoria's chidren made useful marriages"
1914: ah shit.
Hoping to see a video on the husbands and wives of the children of queen victoria
Gotta spread those recessive genes.
Queen Victoria was not her mother's only child. She was her only child with Victoria's father. Victoria had an older brother and sister.
Julieann Nairn wow I DID NOT knew that! Granted, I don’t read a LOT on the Victorians, but man they NEVER mention that fact! I don’t remember reading/hearing anywhere! that Victoria had siblings🤷♀️.
@Julieann
Thank you for stating the accurate information. I getting ready to until I saw your post👍🏼
I have read the same and it was brought up in incest in the royal families..
Half-siblings, but they were like 15 and 12 years older than her. But Victoria did have a good relationship with her half-sister Feodora.
Julieann Nairn but they don’t matter, OBVIOUSLY.
You should make also a video about Popes from Peter to Pope Francis.
Ooh, yes, please!
Hehe.
@@KasumiRINA He was the last Prophet to have been send to human. Because he was the last Prophet to been send with the final message, he therefor is the seal of the Line of Prophets. He was not a Royal, Prophets are to spread the message, and to give a warning of the evildoers and every person makes his own decision!!! The Prophets way to choose the leader known as Chalip, was by selection of the most capabele ones and finally the one with the most votes shall be the new Chalip... They powerful dynasties after his death where power shifted from father to son is human corruption, greed and blinded by wealth and power. So, please don't try to be a smart ass when you beter can use the energy in fixing and healing yourself as human
Yesss
I would love that!!!
Victoria: look I have 9 kids!
Maria Teresa: that’s cute
Yah, I just have 17 kids, no big deal.
LMBO... Her grandmother, Queen Charlotte had 15 kids...
Yeah.. My Granddaughter is very cute.....
If we talk about kids she didn't went active-
@@elizabeth1stofenglandirela901 wut
@@elizabeth1stofenglandirela901 you had no children
All of the Hanoverians: No! You can't just be called Empress while we couldn't!
Queen Victoria: Haha Empress of India go brrr
the reason was, cause the rest of europe using it as autocratic title, they didnt want to use it. india was a loophole proposed by the prime minister.
*Empress* Matilda has entered the chat
@@kathgibbs2881 Matilda is empress because she was married to a Holy Roman Emperor, not Empress (nor an English Empress) in her own right. Hence, why is often named 'Lady' Matilda.
Mary of Teck always gave me the creeps. No surprise she was a kleptomaniac. Her smile was a sociopathic smirk
I agree when she was older she look scary as hell
@Adam Battersby And Elizabeth looks almost nearly identical to Mary.
Yeah-
Her name actually May but it wasn't seen to be royal enough.
Now I want to know more about her
At 13:00, should also mention that Prince Philip is also a great-great-grand son of Queen Victoria.
OMG I was thinking the same thing. xDDD
I literally laughed outloud at ‘turns out Mary is a kleptomaniac’ lol 😆
Seeing Phillip in his youth I see where William gets his look
The current Queen's daughter Princess Anne's first husband was Captain Mark Phillips, not Mark Spencer. Spencer is the late Princess Diana's family name
Thanks, I thought that didn't sound right
Thank you!!!!!!! I had to rewind a few times.
Maybe she’s thinking of the department store lol
That’s right! While Princess Anne had a relationship with a Spencer, she married Mark Phillips.
“Setting banquet tables for king George who had long been dead” ehm it took someone looking into the books to realise people were setting a table that wasn’t get used 🤣🤣 wish I had that money and size of house that you don’t notice that
I know right 🤣 Something like, my servants are still laying out dinners for my cat who has long been gone for 10 years at the 24th room in my basement without me knowing..
I thoroughly enjoyed this series! Really great stuff. Not all completely accurate, but it will surely encourage people into further reading.
A few inaccuracies here and there. For instance, it was stated that three of the Queen's children divorced in 1992. Charles and Diana only separated then. They divorced later in 1996. Also, it was previously stated that Henry Tudor (Henry VII) kidnapped Elizabeth of York, when in fact, all evidence suggests -- and most historians note -- that their match was arranged by their respective mothers. The Dowager Queen Elizabeth and Margaret Beaufort.
They were divorced in 1992, the royals just covered it up ( probably tried to talk her out of it ) because she didn't want Charles. As far as the kidnapping, they had to save face and say it was arranged ( after he kidnapped her )...lol
@@laraycoleman8864 what on earth are you talking about? Diana is the one who was more inclined to marry Charles and then didn’t want a divorce when Charles had long wanted one..
i have learnt more in this video than soem of my history lessons.
i guess you didnt learn much in your english lessons as well
It's a very concise and mostly accurate series indeed. Only, there are a few inaccuracies here and there. For instance, it was stated that three of the Queen's children divorced in 1992. Charles and Diana only separated then. They divorced later in 1996. Also, it was previously stated that Henry Tudor (Henry VII) kidnapped Elizabeth of York, when in fact, all evidence suggests -- and most historians note -- that their match was arranged by their respective mothers. The Dowager Queen Elizabeth and Margaret Beaufort.
There is a lot better info out there then this most of this info is wrong it is good for beginners but it is not the best of have seen
@@KK-kr3rq The most well-versed human will eventually make a mistake. Why? Because humans are humans, and not angels, who are perfect and free from making mistakes.
This series told me everything I wanted to know about the British Monarchy. I was so engrossed watching I forgot to give each episode a thumbs up., My apologies for the oversight. Keep up the good work !
Am I the only one who isn’t even British?
ღ Pink ღ Nope you not the only one lol
No
Nah bro im danish😂😂😂
Me
I am too
I would love to see a video on the Borgia family Pope Alexander, and his children. Nice video as always
16:51 That's my girl
She said assuming like any intellectual would say because we all know Queen Elizabeth II is immortal
God save the Queen 🛐
Not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but Queen Victoria had two older half siblings.
Feodora and other half brother isn't?
@@analimatraducoes Yes, Feodora and Charles (through the Duchess' first marriage to a Prince of Leningen).
12:32 it says under crowned, 1852 instead of 1952 - if you want to put an annotation on that
Yep
because she's immortal
@Alex Lee her coronation was in 1953 she becomes queen as soon as her dad died, she was officially crowned in a cerimony in 1953
I'm Japanese but it's so helpful to study world history
Your videos are just incredible! I’ve watched it all! And not just once!
I am also curious and interested in learning about Prince Philip’s family background and how Greece’s monarchy ended?
Such an amazing experience I've gone through watching your series, thank you. 😊
Yeah, it's spelled GOTHA, but it's pronounced GOATuh.
@@arborscout ill-n-oy

This series has been VERY educational. Thank you for your dedication. Hope to see more
Such an interesting series. Thank you so much for sharing!
Very enjoyable lesson on the royals of Britain. I love the history that is in my background, so this was particularly interesting. Thank you.
I know it’s not popular to say so but I’m happy for Camilla and Charles. He should never have given into his mother and given Camilla up. They were meant for each other.
Maureen Tuohy Agree! He finally got to marry the woman he should’ve married all along!
Yeah... You should watch the Crown season 4
I love Diana, but you’re right. She was the woman who he should have been with from the beginning.
Thank you Lindsay for this series of 8! Very well done!
That one king in the main picture TOTALLY looks like TIM CURRY! HA!...THAT'S AWESOME! 😀
@Infinite Man The BloodyFox George V*
I really enjoyed this series. Thank you so much 😊
You're so cool, so intelligent and so eloquent. Can't get enough of your videos.
Thank you for this series. I enjoyed it very much.
Great work Lindsay. This is a very educative and interesting insights into the British monarchy
The "moderns" we all reined within 55 years of each year. Amazing. There we're 6 monarchs from the beginning of the 20th century to our queen.
3:03 Prince Philip never held the Prince Consort title like Prince Albert. He is The Duke of Edinburgh.
Ana Luiza Garcia I think he is both.....
Inami he is definitely the consort of the monarch but he never held that title. Otherwise it would be his most senior title and we would know him as Philip, Prince Consort, just like Albert, Prince Consort (Queen Victoria’s husband). There was a lot of debate in the early years of Elizabeth’s reign on how Philip should be titled since he was only “HRH Sir Philip Mountbatten, The Duke of Edinburgh, etc.” so he was elevated to “HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, etc.”.
The Prince Consort title was only ever used by Prince Albert.
Kelly Day lol i do know that they hold more than one title (as you can see the “etc” after his most senior title) but as i also stated during the early years of Queen Elizabeth II’s reign they debated if Prince Philip would hold the title Prince Consort or not and they chose he wouldn’t, the only person that has ever held this title in the United Kingdom was Prince Albert. Although Prince Philip IS the monarch’s consort he is NOT “The Prince Consort”, even if he is a Prince and even if he is the monarch’s consort because “The Prince Consort” is a title and not the position he is in. “HRH The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, Earl of Merioneth, Baron Greenwich” is his full title plus honors such as knight, companion and aide-de-camp. And moving to what you said about Catherine, yes, she is a British princess although she is not Princess Catherine, just like “Princess Diana” was never that but she definitely was the Princess of Wales, ETC.
Kelly Day Catherine is not a princess like Diana, for exemple, was, she can be styled princess William of Cambridge but is not really a princess. However, she will be when Charles becomes king, William will inherit the duchy of Cornwall and become prince of Wales, and Kate will become princess of wales
It's amazing how this gets mixed up. Philip is not Prince Consort, though he is consort to the monarch. The title Prince Consort has to be granted, as it was granted to Albert in 1857 (he was not Prince Consort until just 4 years before he died). Being a consort and being entitled as Prince Consort are 2 different things. There has been talk off and on that HM the Queen might create Philip the Prince Consort (at her Golden Jubilee, Diamond Jubilee, on their 70th wedding anniversary, etc) but it has never happened and it's doubtful it ever will. I think the Prince Consort title will likely be kept as something only Albert the Good was granted. While there was talk in 2005 that Camilla would be known as Princess Consort rather than Queen Consort when Charles reigns, this was a sop to those offended that Camilla was replacing Diana; it has no force of law and is not official and all talk of it since then as been dropped. At any rate, it was talk of *styling* not official titles, and these are two different things.
As for Catherine and Diana, there is no Princess of Wales and there has never been a Princess of Wales *in her own right.* A couple of women were unofficially styled that way (Mary I for example) but it was never officially granted either. Both Catherine and Diana were Princess only in right of their husbands; Diana was officially "Princess Charles of Wales" and Catherine is officially "Princess William, Duchess of Cambridge." When Charles gains the throne and William is officially created Prince of Wales Catherine will become "Princess William of Wales." While Diana was granted the post-divorce title "Lady Diana, Princess of Wales" without the HRH, this was in line with the U.K. tradition of divorced wives retaining some remnant of their married title. Princess Margaret was Countess of Snowdon through her marriage, and her post-divorce title was "The Princess Margaret, Countess of Snowdon" even after her husband the Earl of Snowdon remarried. I know this is confusing but that's the way it works. Had DIana remarried she would no longer have retained the "Princess of Wales" part. This is like a divorced woman retaining her husband's surname, which she usually changes when she remarries.
Because of the new laws regarding absolute primogeniture rather than male primogeniture, if a female becomes the heiress apparent (as opposed to heiress presumptive as the Queen was before her father's death), that will be the first time there is a true Princess of Wales in fact rather than in unofficial style.
Beautiful series. I enjoyed it very much.
What a well done series! 👏
A veritable silo of information. How can you keep track? A slip here and there is totally understandable, considering the massive amount of research, fact checking, and investigative work you must have done. I truly appreciate your work; I am sure I will watch this again once I catch my breath (it goes by so fast!), and I look forward to future endeavors.
I absolutely loved this series !!! I love the history of the royals. Keep up the great videos! 👁👁
This entire series was quite enlightening. Can you imagine an epic film being made of the entire history of the royal family of England? Ironically, aside from the modern royal family, I know the most about George IV, aka Prinny prior to becoming king, because I love Regency era romances so much. And, of course, the famous Henry VIII.
I was so happy when you posted this video
Such an interesting series amazing that marriage was about class and breeding than love apart from Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth thankfully this ended with Princess Diana
Queen Elizabeth's father chose his bride and they loved each other. Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon actually turned down his first two proposals because she wasn't sure if she wanted to live life as a royal. She eventually accepted because she loved him and neither of them thought that they would ever be king and queen. They thought they could just live life as minor members of the royal family. But of course that changed.
Charles and Diana didn’t actually get officially divorced until 1996, as they announced their ‘formal separation’ in 92.
I started seeing the first part 2 hours ago I believe? It’s 3 am. Will I regret it tomorrow? Probably. Was it worth it? Yasssss
Watched the whole thing tonight, from Alfred to Elizabeth II. Absolutely wonder work, putting centuries of history in a lucid and easily digestible form. Very well done. - Except you have Elizabeth II being crowned in 1852. Queen Victoria would not have been amused.
This series was really good
The line of succession should skip Charles and go straight to William and Kate, but it looks like Queen Elizabeth is going to live forever like she’s a vampire or something lol. Love these videos!!!!
She could be alive till 2030, that means charles will be 82
No, it should be abolished when she dies. Individuals like Charles demonstrate the ridiculousness of monarchy; you don't get to pick and choose the ones you like.
@@georgepom328 bet?
@@kalibronx I was wrong she wasn't frail two years ago
I'm not even british but i love history so much, great work. And congratulations to all the Queens, their time in power were very important to england.
amazing series!!!!!!!
Ironic how the Church of England was created so Henry the 8th could divorce his wife but they didn’t permit a royal to divorce
They are not amused - great title!
On the Elizabeth II notice at 12:36, it lists Elizabeth's birth in 1926 and her being crowned in 1852 at age 25.
your videos are amazing!
Thanks!
Not a bad series, I liked the background music. There were some inaccuracies but I liked most of the series.
And finally the last episode of this epic serie IS HERE !
Thanks for watching!
I loved this serie. Thank you for making it!
Thanks!
So agreed!
Diana and Charles didn't divorce in 1992, they separated in '92 and divorced in 1996
Queen Victoria ruled the largest empire in the history of the world but had no mental peace as her life was filled with many sorrowful events .
But it's recognized by many that she was a drama queen. Probably extremely spoiled too.
What about queen Victoria's munchie? The Indian man she became friends with the end of her life. 💪👌
He was getting so much influence, to the country's and her son's ire. Once Edward became king, the Munshi was kicked out of the UK, and lived the rest of his life was spent in his native Agra. All correspondence, save 4 letters, between the Munshi and his mother were destroyed.
He was a social climber who took advantage of the queen.
@@tfh5575 How could Karim be a social climber??? The Queen did not heard, saw or knew about Karim when she wished to employ some Indian servants, and also asked for the recruit 2 attendants who would be employed for a year???? The Queen took a great liking to Karim from their first encounter as she wrote how tall and fine he was. For you to say in 2019 that he was a social climber and have taken advantage of the queen sound really backwards and embarrassing 👀
@@fawziabdulhamid5186 embarrassed for what? he was a liar sweety lol you sound hurt
@@tfh5575 An Indian being a courtier in the court of the Empress of India? Oh no 🤪
So, in the Downton Abbey film, it wasn't Queen Mary's maid who was stealing little bits here & there throughout the house, but Queen Mary herself. Thank you for the info. I had never heard this before.😉
The children of Queen of Elizabeth II for the next video
Are y’all thankful for MY tradition that strengthen your Holidays?
Queen Elizabeth has now broken Victoria's record for longest reigning monarch in British history
Amazing work Lindsay! I'm waiting for these series each week like a lil kid waiting for a candy. Been obsessed with UK history as long as I can remember and these videos bring back a good childhood memory. Thank you very much and I'll be waiting for another video related to british history. Love from Indonesia. Xo
Thanks Nadia!
Elizabeth was at Balmoral when Diana died, and William and Harry were with her. Her primary concern, as their grandmother, was for her grandsons, who were devastated by their mother's death. Realistically, she was in the unhappy position of being castigated for being either an uncaring monarch, or an uncaring grandmother, which is a no win position for a person to experience. The press, in my opinion, acted as though she had no right to put the two persons most affected by the tragedy as her first duty. Being Royal does not preclude having normal human emotions.
Please do a video on the history of the house of saxe-coburg & gotha
You are amazing
Am I the only one who noticed that Kaiser Wilhelm and Adolf Hitler, who were the leaders of Germany during the World Wars both had some of the weirdest mustaches in 20th Century history. Brillant video and series, this type of format for series should be used more often.
Their ancestor, Edward III also used the name Windsor prior to becoming King.
i cant stop watching ur channel thx
Thank you!
2:58 Didn't trust a foreign (German) prince ... so much for George of Hannover.
Prince Albert was German and he was a good man when he was married to Queen Victoria. He was intelligent and hard-working with the sciences and architecture to help build more housing for the British people that they desperately needes. Plus, they had a house full of children.
@@montrelouisebohon-harris7023 I agree, Albert brought an element of good-naturedness & reason, hence the scoffing of rejecting the introduction of a foreign, viz. German, into the "sacred" royal house, especially considering the not-so-distant past, once again: Georg Ludwig, Elector of Hannover.
Now I know why did King William IV dislike Queen Victoria's mother.
12:33 she was crowned in 1952
Right
Queen Victoria wasn't the only child of Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld. Before Princess Victoria of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld married with Prince Edward, Duke of Kent and Strathearn (Queen Victoria’s father), she had been married to Emich Carl, Prince of Leiningen. Victoria and Emich had two children: Carl, 3rd Prince of Leiningen and Princess Feodora of Leiningen.
I really enjoy your videos but Prince Albert more than likely didn't die of typhoid fever and he sure didn't get it after the long walk with his son in the rain. He had been sick prior with stomach issues for around 2 years before he died. He was actually in ill health when he went to Cambridge to confront his son.
hadn't they more recently pointed out that the most likely cause of his death was due to stomach ulcers or even stomach cancer?
Mark Spencer. That's a chain of stores. Mark Philips perhaps!
holy shit, all the kings of Europe were relatives? that explains the mustache lol
Basically world war 1 was a massive family feud ahaha
@@kaylaross7565 lol

I had no idea Elizabeth the second was crowned in 1852. No wonder she's the longest reigning monarch in England's history
1952*

Wasn't the actual coronation supposed to take place in June 2nd 1953

Can you make a video about king George 3’s children?
15:32 "Don't jubilee've it!" 😂
Princess Anne's first husband was Mark Phillips, not Spencer. Just saying.
Maybe it was Marks And Spencer? Just saying.
12:35, born in 1920's, and crowned in 1852, I was wondering this kind of thing
George V(was born June 3rd 1865)became king at 44 in May 1910 and likely had a rushed death via overdose on January 20th 1936(age 70). his son George VI became king on December 11th 1936(age 40 turned 41 on December 14th) until his Death on Feb 5th(minus one lung) 1952 age 56 partly do to stress and heavy smoking.
Since 1707 been a British Monarchy ....Calling them English or of England offends many people who are British but not English. Not too much to ask...
An update is needed
Great series..love your work...you have Queen Elizàbeth ll being crowned in 1852...it should be 1952.
Victoria 💙 She was one of the kind! 💙
Elizabeth II was crowned in 1953, at the age of 27. She came to the throne in 1952 at the age of 25. The monarch becomes King or Queen at the moment of the previous monarchs death. The crowning is set months later. You have accession and crowning messed up on many of the monarchs. Edward VIII was never crowned.
You forgot one big thing-
1760, the beginning of The Civil List.
To fund his huge debts, George III asked parliament for a salary in return for rental income from the crown lands. Parliament took the offer guessing that the rental income would one day outweigh the salary...
So, on top of voluntary income tax paid by the queen (as of 1992), the crown pays parliament 100% of its profits in return for a salary which has been defined as exactly 15% of the sum given to parliament. However this does not include the income from the Duchy of Lancaster.
This makes the British monarch the most heavily taxed individual by marginal tax rate in history hence what you said about tax and the monarch being funded by the public is simply misguided.
Another point, you made the queen seem quite cold when you mentioned her week away from the public after Diana died. In reality, the queen spent this time protecting the distraught Princes William and Henry from the press by hiding them at Balmoral. The queen is not dumb enough to piss off the public by making a statement such as "whatever I don't care that she's dead"
Although, the evidence of Diana and the queen's personal relationship suggests that the queen was highly annoyed by Diana's extreme immaturity when dealing with her marital discord and her inability to be decisive about moving forward with her life.
The final blow was Diana moping to the press and causing a scandal, so no I don't really blame the queen for hiding her grandkids. To me, Diana echoed Wallis Simpson in the way that she appealed endlessly to the press and demonised the royal family, who on all accounts have attempted to protect their own and their image as should be expected!
The Crown Estate is a collection of lands and holdings in the territories of England, Wales and Northern Ireland within the United Kingdom belonging to the British monarch as a corporation sole, making it the "Sovereign's public estate". All of the profits from the Crown Estate go to government. The government keeps 85% and the remaining 15% is given to the monarch in the form of a Sovereign Grant (formerly the Civil List). For 2019, £343.5 million revenue was given to the government. www.thecrownestate.co.uk/media/3189/22668_the-crown-estate_ar_2019-interactive.pdf

tacos mexicanstyle No matter how much the queen disliked Diana, she shouldn't have had her killed. The queen is basically a murderer by proxy.
@@ItsLunaRegina Agree completely. In my opinion its time the monarchy exited, they serve no purpose. I bet out of touch Elizabeth doesn't come out of hiding until her obnoxious stuck up Christmas day speech. I'm disgusted at her lack of intervention regarding this plandemic.
I found a typo at 12:37. Elizabeth II was crowned in 1952, not 1852.
I often wonder what things would have been like if Victoria had her father around growing up
If he had a son, then she would never have been Queen. When she was born she was 4th in line for the throne, after her Uncles George and William and her father as her Grandfather George III was the ruler. Within a year she went up to second as both her grandfather and father died. Since George and William were separated from their wives, they had about 15 illegitimate children between them, so their relationships were not the best, and George's wife was about 50 and England did not allow divorce, then Victoria knew, as long as she could outlive her uncles, she would become Queen.
The oldest Uncle George, separated from his wife within 2 years of their marriage. They had two children, one died by age 2. Charlotte was the other. Since he was not with his wife, Charlotte was raised to become the Queen as there would be no younger brothers. Therefore, her uncles Frederick, William, Edward, Ernest (age order) never bothered to marry since they had mistresses as their children would not become a ruler. When Charlotte died in childbirth at 21 to a stillborn, her mother was too old to conceive an heir. Frederick had passed so the other 3 uncles rushed to the alter, they were 50+ at the time. William failed at an heir, his died by age 2, Edward was Victoria's father and since he was older than Ernest, she got the crown.
