It was the culmination of a family squabble between the descendants of Edward III, over the Crown of England. Happily for the country, Henry Tudor won a decisive victory, became King (although his lineage was debatable), and set about to secure his position with some skillful political manoeuvring and marriage to quell any opposition. the result was an end to a hundred years instability for the nation.
