King Richard III was disliked by many due to his ruthless rise to power, including the alleged murder of his nephews, the young princes Edward and Richard, to secure his claim to the throne. His reign was marked by political instability and the perception of tyranny, contributing to negative portrayals in literature, most notably by William Shakespeare. Additionally, his physical deformities were often exaggerated to symbolize moral corruption, further fueling public disdain. As a result, he became a symbol of treachery and villainy in English history.
