Monarchy

He separated England from the Roman Catholic church and formed the Church of England - one where he was the head figure of the church, thus he was allowed to make his own rules.

George V never married Wallis Simpson, his son Edward did (and staid married to her until his death).

King George III was born in London at Norfolk House.

She was queen for 3 yrs

Bloody lucky, Harold had to deal with two invading armies. He led his men on a 4 day forced march from London to Stamford Bridge in Yorkshire collecting levies as he went. He defeated the invading Vikings (Norwegian) and then marched back south to take William on just 3 weeks after the Battle. William's tactics of softening up the Saxons with archers and then following up with infantry and cavalry didn't work. The Saxon shield wall held and Williams forces both infantry and cavalry broke on the shield wall and eventually led by the Bretons fled pursued by the Saxons. William managed to rally them hold the Saxons and launch a counter attack causing many casualties amongst the main armoured troops. Many died and of those who didn't many could not regain their former positions. After a lull in the fighting a change of target for the archers in behind the Shield wall and the loss of front line troops enabled William to find weaknesses in the shield wall which he then exploited.

So if it hadn't been for the lilly livered cheese eating surrender monkey Breton division history would have been completely different and Harold lauded as a brilliant commander defeating two invading armies in 3 weeks. History huh!

King Charles II of England did not find South Carolina, but did name it for his father, Charles I. The colony of Carolina was founded in the 1670's and was split into northern and southern colonies in 1719.

Henry VIII was lustful, selfish, and eventually gluttonous.

According to some commentators he had some 70,000 people executed and looted the monasteries and other religious houses of money and land! He extorted money from the Church and sustained an accident in a joust, which unfortunately didn't kill him. but appears to have had deleterious affects on his mental state and caused obesity! He obtained an annulment from his first wife and having five others had two executed!

One of the things he did was to point out that the pope's activities were illegal and were against the teachings of the Ecumenical Councils, especially the Council of Nicaea. This caused the Pope to sever communion with Henry but left him a catholic prince!

He killed his family just to take over the throne such as his nephew, then stole land from the barons (lords) and made them outlaws ( the story of Robin Hood was based on this). He even signed the Magna Carta and then broke its rule. and killed people with bare hands. the end

Anne Boleyn was executed on May 19th, 1536. She didn't have anything tucked under her arms during her execution, but ghost stories about her death include references to her "carrying her head tucked beneath her arm."

this is totaly not a good website to look mon and the answer is........lady-in-waiting

No. You are probably thinking of King Charles I (1600 - 1649), son of James I and father of James II. During the English Civil War (1641 - 1651), the army of Royalists loyal to the king, were eventually defeated by the Parliamentarian army loyal to Oliver Cromwell. Charles I was tried for treason to the people and executed on 30 January 1649 outside the Banqueting House in Whitehall, London. He was very brave, and wore two shirts because he did not want people to think he was shivering with fear. In 1660, his son, Charles II, was returned to the throne as king within two years of Cromwell's death, and the monarchy restored (the Restoration).

King George III was a horrible person. The colonists wanted independence and they sent him letters and things to make deals but King George wouldn't listen and didn't care about the colonists. He just wanted his empire to be strong.

Lancaster - red rose

York - white rose

King John had a number of children, one of whom succeeded him as King Henry III.

A peasants home in the middle ages would most commonly been framed with timber, and would have had walls made of a material known as "wattle and daub". Wattle and daub is a construction technique where branches and thin pieces of work were woven together into a lattice attached to a frame (the wattle) and then covered by a layer made of some combination of wet soil, clay, straw, sand, and even animal dung (the daub). Whey this dried it would be washed with a plaster, both to help protect it from the elements, and also to lighten the interior due to the while color. The roof was made of thatch, which was made by tying bundles of plant materials such as rushes, sedge, straw, etc, together to form a thick layer. Built by a skillful craftsman a thatch roof is both rain and weather proof.

Windows were unglazed and equipped with shutters. Windows allowed for light and ventilation, but also made it more difficult to keep the house warm in cold weather. Overall, windows were small and few compared to most modern houses.

The wealth of medieval peasants actually varied a good deal. A poor peasant would likely have a small house of a single room. A wealthy peasant would have a larger house of several rooms, and possible even a second story. Such a house would be composed of a main hail with a high ceiling that had either a central stone hearth or a fireplace. At one end there would be two small rooms separated by a passageway. These rooms were a pantry, used for storing bread, other food, and household items such as plates and dishes, and a buttery, used to store barrels (butts, thus the name) of ale or wine. There might be a private room above the pantry and buttery, or in other cases a ground level private room at the far end of the hall.

Furniture would have been basic by modern standards. Chairs were rare, stools and benches were more commonly used for sitting. Tables were usually trestle tables that could be folded and cleared away when not in use. Items would be kept on simple shelves or in chests. Mattresses were basically a sack like device stuffed straw. These might be placed in a wooden bed frame and supported by ropes, or in the case of a very poor person just put directly on the floor.

In some cases structures for housing animals were connected directly to the main house, usually as a separate range running at a right angle to the hall. This was a practical arrangement, as it made the various chores related to caring for animals more convenient, and in winter the body heat of the animals would help warm the home.

louis believed in making his country better

4,000 royals were killed

Lady Jane Grey for 9 days. Followed by Mary I. Followed by ElizabethI

Queen Elizabeth I was ruling England in 1597.

There has not been a Queen, or King, of England for over 300 years.

England is a part of, but not the same as, The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.

In 1945 The King of The United Kingdom was King George VI and his wife and Queen Consort was Elizabeth Bowes-Lyon.

Edward VI was born on 12th October 1537 and died on 6th July 1553. He died and was born at Greenwich in England.

In his youth, Henry was tall, fit, and good-looking. In his later years, however, he became grossly obese, with a stinking ulcer on his leg. See related link for a portrait gallery.

"His Majesty is the handsomest potentate I ever set eyes on; above the usual height, with an extremely fine calf to his leg, his complexion very fair and bright, with auburn hair combed straight and short, in the French fashion, and a round face so very beautiful, that it would become a pretty woman, his throat being rather long and thick. He was born on the 28th of June, 1491, so he will enter his twenty-fifth year the month after next. He speaks French English, and Latin, and a little Italian, he plays well on the lute and harpsichord, sings from book at sight, draws the bow with greater strength than any man in England, and jousts marvellously. Believe me, he is in every respect a most accomplished Prince; and I, who have now seen all the sovereigns in Christendom, and last of all these two of France and England in such great state, might well rest content, and with sufficient reason have it said to me, 'abi viator, sat tuis oculis debe' (go home traveller, your eyes have seen enough).

There was no Prince of Wales between the death of King George V in 1936 and the time Prince Charles took the title in 1958.
