Richard the Lion Hearted took off on the Second Crusade he left his brother Prince John in charge of England and the English possesions in France ect. Richard was a rowdy so-and-so and made himself a good number of enemies. One of these was the King of Austria who imprisoned him. Richard appealed to John to pay his ransom. John taxed the British heavily to gather up Richard's King's Ramson. This caused significant hard-ship and hard feelingings between the English and Prince John. Robin Hood lost his father's possession to taxation so became a bandit.

Question is not clear. Do you mean "Why was Robin Hood considered an invented story rather than a historical fact?" or "Why did Robin Hood achieve status as a legend rather than other outlaws?"

The appeal of Robin Hood is that he was a scamp who could make you laugh while he was robbing you.-- Sam Sackett
