    King Richard III got his royal burial. But the Princes in the Tower aka the King he forced to give the crown and his little brother hasn't.
    Yeah, the Hunchback King really is a villain til the end.

    • @alisoncircus
      @alisoncircus 4 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Except, no. There's evidence that the princes were alive and well when Richard died - evidence of household expenses and orders placed on their behalf, which would be extremely difficult to forge as it is scattered in single lines throughout the household documents. And, further, there was no benefit to Richard in having them killed. They had already been declared "illegitimate" by an act of open Parliament, in a Writ of Attainder.
      The Writ was repealed by Richard's successor, Henry Tudor, who claimed the throne "by right of might and marriage" - the marriage being to the boys' sister, Ann, who was also illegitimate (their dad was a bigamist - proved in the hearing that resulted in the Writ). There would have been zero benefit in marrying a bastard, so he had the Writ repealed WITHOUT READING, which was never done except this one time, but the years that had passed since its passage had blurred memories as to why it had been passed in the first place, so not reading it ensured no one would be reminded - or emboldened to speak of it. Repealing it, however, made the boys King and Heir respectively, so AT THAT TIME it was worthwhile to Henry to have them quietly killed off.
      Which is when the household stopped recording purchases on their behalf.
      Henry then spent the rest of his reign killing off every Plantaganet he could identify, in England, Scotland, and France, down to babes in arms - because every single one of them had a stronger claim to the throne than he did if he didn't maintain his "might". The few that he missed were taken care of his son, Henry VIII. You recall how kind and measured Henry VIII was about everything, right? Like father like son, I guess. But the fact that the Plantaganets were all killed off is WHY there was no one significant to marry Elizabeth off to; there wasn't anyone from any English royal lineage left, including Tudors. Which, subsequently, is why Elizabeth's successor was the King of Scotland, by invitation from Parliament, despite the fact she'd been at war with Scotland her entire reign.
      There wasn't anybody else. Henry Tudor killed them all, with just a bit of help from his son.
      Meanwhile, Richard III would gain absolutely zero benefit from killing his nephews, and in fact, as he had no children of his own, he had named the elder nephew his designated heir despite his illegitimate status.
      So, no. Richard was never the villain, and the City of York wrote a lamentation for his death in their official city records WHICH NOT EVEN THE TUDORS dared to have stricken from the books, as it would have triggered an uprising in the name of their "beloved son of York".
      The "villain" image was created by Thomas Moore, who was a wholly owned sycophant of Henry's, and popularized by Shakespeare, who not only wrote FICTION, but wrote it for QUEEN ELIZABETH. Henry's granddaughter. Do you think he'd get far lauding the king her grandfather stole the throne from? Really?
      This is just one of those myths that refuses to be debunked. Actual historians (unlike Moore) have gone through the records and the archeology, and published proofs of what really happened in every century since Richard's death... and still the lies go on.
      And just as a side note, "The Tower of London" is not and never was a prison. It was the Plantaganet's official London residence, well walled and guarded against brigands and assassins. Their home "castle" was in York, but Parliament met in London so when they were there, they lived in the Tower. You should go see it, if you're ever in London. Really a very pleasant place for a castle; most castles are far less comfortable.

    • @Sorarixicaric
      @Sorarixicaric 3 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      Given no complete remains have ever been found in the pyramids main chamber. Where they were supposed to be buried it's a wonder they were ever built at all Given our current theories. It's suffice to say we know next to nothing about the pyramids. Even the copper tools theory falls apart they would of needed thousands of tools as they would dull/be destroyed real quick. At least given our theory of water sand copper. We've only ever found incomplete remains, what if they were used as the place were the pharaoh under went a sort of metamorphosis and achieved being DNA spliced. Could explain only some bones/organs. They loved animals and with every day that passes we get closer and closer/know DNA splicing is a thing that can be achieved. I doubt that would of been given to just anyone. One things for certain we know nothing and they were one of the smartest civilation to exist. They understood language changes so they write in pictures. Maybe were just too dumb/arrogant to take them at their face value. Why else did they write in pictures while also building things we can't achieve today?

    Please worship the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, THE LORD GOD and try not to worry too much about the differences between the different religions and denominations, try to think about the similarities and the things they may have in common more than the differences. Daily prayer is a fundamental part that many people do not practice although it is encouraged.
    "CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, LORD GOD, I beg you to never force me to worship any false god or object and I ask you for forgiveness for my sins and immorality. Thank you for everything. Amen."
    🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
    Please pray this now, pray the words as you read them if you cannot look and remember them 🙏🙏 and please know that daily prayer will give you the help that GOD wants you to have.
    🙏🙏🙏
    Thessalonians 5:16-18
    "Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is the will of GOD in Christ Jesus for you."
    Daily prayer is the key to success in politics and much of life, if only more would practice it 🙏
