Best Answer

Richard the second (II) was Shakespeare's 11th play according to the Signet Classic series and Riverside Shakespeare lists. But hold on! According to Riverside Shakespeare may have written as many as 12 or as few as nine plays before Richard II (so it could have been 10th, 11th, 12th, or 13th). According to the Signet Classic Series, it could have been 10th, 11th or 12th.

Guessing the date when any of Shakespeare's plays was written is a chancy thing. We only really know when they were published, entered into the Stationer's register, and in some cases, performed. Francis Meres made a list of Shakespeare's plays in 1598 which helps to know which plays had been performed before then.
