These are all professional BBC or other production company documentaries uploaded to other channels. It's almost always Dan Jones, Suzannah Lipscomb, Tony Robinson, Mary Beard, Lucy Worsley, Dan Snow, etc. and the couple of groups that do live-in reenactments of the food, clothing, etc. They change the title and that's it.

What I mean to say is, the people who put in a lot of money to make this got their money's worth I'm sure and these channels are also reaping the benefits but without investing a penny lol
It's incredibly fascinating how these old monarchs never could understand that by giving the working class/ peasants better lives, would ultimately lead to a great economy with people that are loyal and ultimately lead to more advances in many things like culture, art, medicine and technology that would have made their countries way stronger than the opresssed countries around them. They would have dominated! Instead they fell and were constantly fighting lol!
Bolingbrook would have disagreed. Sorry just couldn't help myself. Nice came in last in the ruling cultures of the world then, with few exceptions, and now. A wise ruler is a good ideal for aspiration and even scarcer a commodity. Good health and luck to you. Pat
I mean, France tried that and it sparked off a generation of endless all-encompassing total warfare so abysmally destructive that returning to the monarchy was considered a measured compromise.
Some of the Kings in the past tried to do what you are referring to. Unfortunately and ultimately, it was the greedy nobleman that would create factions and lead to destructive warfare across the countryside. Without land there was no power.
True but it is not always the case, I mean Edward III was pretty young when he inherited the crown and ruled for over 50 years with no rebellions from any of his 5 adult sons and had the country always supporting him, but his success in ruling and being a father inevitably laid the foundation for what would become the War of Roses after he died.
there's problems with it, firstly, you usually have a guardian for the child monarch, which in turn can lead to the guardian using their position to rule with the child as the representative of authority. or you can have a child live like a king on theor own amd watch them grow up deciding what's right and wrong for themselves. but generally, the bloodline in a monarchy and the existence of a monarch is very important to the structure of feudal society.
These are really gripping, and interesting. This time in English History fascinates me so much. Don’t stop posting them, it’s like learning about things I didn’t even get to learn about before. These Monarchs surely had iron fists and ruled with their misunderstandings . Damn !
It was always my understanding that Richard III, not Richard II, was the last Plantagenant king of England. But I guess that depends on how you define the Plantagenets versus the Lancasterians and Yorkists.
Richard III was the last Plantagent King of England but once Henry IV usurped the crown from Richard II, then they were know as Lancasterian rulers until Yorkist rulers but both the Lancasteriam and Yorkist Kings were still Kings apart of the Plantagent dynasty
The host really makes the history of this era really interesting. Ive watched a few shows hes hosted like this. I love history but never really got into english history. No reason really just never did. Boy is it fascinating
Upon watching this whole series and also watching another series of the Wars of the Roses with Dan Jones, it seems they reuse a lot of the same actors…nothing wrong with that just something I noticed lol
I descend from the Plantagenant line through my father's paternal grandmother. I also come from the Bruce line in Scotland through his maternal grandmother. They ended up fighting each other at the Battle of Bannockburn. I am thoroughly enjoying getting to know more about the history of my ancestors.
Are they recycling actors? Is one of Richard II’s chancellors (Archbishop Sudbury) at the beginning of the documentary also playing Henry II? 😂 Other than that, these documentaries are awesome!
I wonder how different history would be had the peasants' revolt succeeded. It's fun to think of the royal descendants driving buses or delivering the mail or wondering if they can afford to buy meat this week.
If you visit St Gregory's church in Sudbury, Suffolk, ask to see Simon Sudbury's head. It's kept in a small enclosure in a wall just off the high altar. I saw it in 2017. A grisly, stark reminder of the butchery committed during the Peasant's Revolt.
Poetic justice; a petty, cruel narcissist, appropriately, suffered a slow death. Galatians 6:7 Do not be deceived God is not mocked, for whatever one sows, that will he also reap.
Unfortunately it's naive bullshit. Across centuries many upon many powerful and rich men did awful things to many people but never suffered any consequences, and died peacefully of old age.
The last line, "anyone with a drop of royal blood can theoretically claim the throne" is just not true. That's not what the Wars of the Roses were about. Henry IV was the son of the third son of Edward III, John of Gaunt. Edward's second son Lionel of Antwerp had no sons, but had a daughter, Philippa. Henry IV and his descendants claimed the throne by Agnatic Descent from Edward III while Philippa's descendants claimed the throne by Primogeniture. These were two specific claims that each had a succession claim to the throne, not just random people with a 'drop of royal blood'. The Wars of the Roses was fought between these two rival succession claims.
Correct but they each had Royal blood and I think the narrator said it that way though bc further in history when Henry Tudor won the throne and ended the Plantagenet Dynasty, it was a huge change in the game, NO ONE expected him to win it bc it was a Huge Longshot and his only claim to the throne was through his mother, who was descended through a bastard line of succession from John of Gaunt, so I think he was more referring to Henry Tudor when he made the comment of a drop of Royal blood. However he was wrong when he said that the crown of England passed down legitimately through 8 generations in the Plantagent Dynasty and that Henry Bolingbroke's coronation changed all that. Bc although the crown stayed in the Plantagent Dynasty, IF it passed Legitimately then the 3rd Plantagent King of England would have been King Arthur, the legitimate son of Richard I's younger brother Prince Geoffrey, who was older then their youngest brother, Prince John who became, King John I after Richard I. However after Richard I died Prince John seized the crown and had himself declared King immediately and then captured his nephew, prince Arthur, and most likely had him killed, to get rid of any competition for the crown. And the main difference with this usurpation was King John I managed to steal the crown and get himself crowned King before Prince Arthur could be declared and crowned King, where as when it happened to Richard II, it happened after he was declared and anointed the King and ruled the country for a few years. So overall the same thing basically happened before but just under different circumstances.
Gerardi Italian nobility coat of arms must be changed. It must show all 3 roses: Tudor, Lancaster and York. According to MytrueancestryDNA data, my YDNA line is connected to all 3. Currently, it just has the lancaster rose in the center. Yes, it is a Baronage but our line is from a past carthage Nobility family group to King Hasdrubal the first (500 B.C.). So, it means that only the eldest of the Gerardis will be Baron but my mother's paternal line is Greek nobility from the families of Petrocochino and Mavrocordatos. It opens the possibility of me having "Duke" title because of my mother's lineage. Creating one head of the Gerardi (eldest) with my minor cadet branch from a Baronage. There are no Kingdoms of Naples and Venice. So, I may just restart as genetic Hereditary (Aristocrat) "Duke" with supporting monarchial authority or papal approval.
Not sure how far it goes back but there are royal records from at least 1000yrs ago (a lot written on scrolls and in the earliest form of the english language) held in The National Archives. True many written historical records were written after the fact, but these were all written at the current time
@@SteveVA100 only partially true & that would depend on the subject matter. There is a great deal of written history that has nothing to do with any "victor" that was written at the current time.

One of my family line was Thomas Holland first husband of Joan Plantagenet and after his death she married Edward the Black Prince of Wales and gave birth to Richard the II.
