Best Answer

The "Histories" are plays based on English post-1066 history, and so do not include the plays about Roman or Scottish history, or those based on the legendary English kings Cymbeline and Lear. There are 10 of these, generally named after the kings whose reigns are involved, although these kings may not be the main character in the play. The 10 histories are King John, Richard II, Henry IV Part 1, Henry IV Part 2, Henry V, Henry VI Part 1, Henry VI Part 2, Henry VI Part 3, Richard III, Henry VIII. They were not, of course, written in that order.
