Shakespeare made history about people. The reign of Henry VI is about the simplemindedness of Henry, the pride and maternal drive of his wife, the ignorance and bloody-mindedness of Jack Cade's followers, the deviousness of the Duke of York and the vindictiveness of his sons. The end of Richard II's reign is about his selfishness and lack of firmness of purpose. Richard III's career is about ambition deprived of any moral content.

By making the history about the characters of the players in it, it becomes more interesting.

Are fairy tales dull and boring?

That depends on which versions you read. Generally fairy tales can be quite interesting if you read a well-written account, or if you can find an original version of some European tales.
