Not all of the English liked William as there king , because he was a bad influence on people and their minds'. When he killed Harold Godwin at the battle of Hastings , he treated Harold's dead body as a joke. First he stripped him from his clothes, then he dragged his nude body across the rough ground with a horse. After he chopped his limbs off his body, and after that no one actually knows what they did to the remains of him.

After Harold's defeat at the battle of Hastings ,Gytha(his mother) tried to buy his body from king William, offering to pay the weight of his body in gold. However the foreign king ignored this as if a couple of peasants' begging for money.

The Bayeux tapestry was constructed from eight separate pieces of linen which were joined to make up its length. It is approximately 70 metres long and half a metre wide. It is evident that at one stage it was even longer, probably by as much as seven or eight metres are missing. This particular tapestry provides the vital evidence for the cruelty and inhumanity towards the English king, Harold Godwin.

William duke of Normandy was also the prime suspect of murdering Edward the atheling who was the father of prince Edgar (one of the claimants to the English throne after the death of Edward the confessor). So the supporters and the followers of prince Edgar ,must have hated William , and would not accept at any condition for William to become their new king.

William had faced many rebellions during his reign in 1066 - 1087, Hereward the Wake was one of them. In 1070, Hereward led a rebellion against the new king ,William. By this time ,people had already tried many times to remove William. Hereward had joined forces with Edwin (the Earl of Mercia),Morcar(the Earl of Northumberland) and an army of Danes to fight against the Normans ,but they were eventually defeated by the Normans.

Another rebellion against William was led by Gytha, Harold Godwin's mother, which took place in 1068 in Exeter, Devon, which is where the Godwin family had a home. However these rebels were also crushed by William, and William gained control over Exeter and Devon. By spring 1070 William was in control, although there were other rebellions, none of them were as serious as the rebellions of 1067 and 1069.

The hate of William arose in the form of rebels

Elizabeth of York (1465-1503). Henry VII married her to end the rift between the House of York and the House of Lancaster. So Henry VIII (their son) would be from both families.

Henry the Young King pre-deceased his father so did not get a 'number' after his name.

He was unpopular because he was a Catholic. He also had strong beliefs regarding the Divine Right of Kings, and what he thought should be the scope of authority of Absolute Princes (kings) who ruled under that right.

Richard I was one of the kings leading the Third Crusade, which was from 1189 to 1192. He left for the crusade rather late, in the summer of 1190. On the way to the Holy Land, his fleet had problems, dispersing it and wrecking some of the ships on Cyprus. The king of Cyprus took the treasure in the treasure ship and imprisoned Richards sister and intended wife. Richard answered this by conquering Cyprus, freeing the hostages, and making himself king. He then landed in the Holy Land, fought in the crusades themselves, realized that he would not be able to hold Jerusalem, even if he could conquer it, and retreated. He was captured by the Emperor of the Holy Roman Empire on his way home and was held until his mother paid ransom, which she raised in her own duchy of Aquitaine.

There is a link to an article on Richard below.

Please don't be offended if I correct your wording. Edward VIII abdicated (not abducted) the throne in order to marry Wallis Warfield Simpson, an American divorcee. Edward's brother then became King George VI. King George and his queen, Elizabeth, were the parents of the current Queen Elizabeth II.

Wilhelmina vigorously rallied the Dutch cause and supported the Resistance against the Germans through radio propaganda centered in England, She resided in the UK after having gotten out of Holland alive. There was a big Dutch underground movement in the UK and they held rallies, and had badges, insignia etc. naturally adulation of the Royal Family was the order of the day- there were tokens of Princess Juliana, later Queen, for example. the GOVINEX ( cable address for Government in Exile) as stated operated out of London, and they used such slogans as Regina et Patria- Queen and Fatherland, and The Netherlands shall Rise Again. One wonders if something similar of a different color angle might have existed in the Twenties in the United States- and it would have used the slogan- White Russia will Rise Again! - there was such an underground movement- rallying to the call of Floreat Anastasia! (May Anastasia Flourish) not much other info. but as for Wilhelmina, the history is established fact.

Retreating from the French invasion, John took a safe route around the marshy area of the Wash to avoid the rebel held area of East Anglia. His slow baggage train (including the Crown Jewels), however, took a direct route across it and was lost to the unexpected incoming tide. This dealt John a terrible blow, which affected his health and state of mind. Succumbing to dysentery and moving from place to place, he stayed one night at Sleaford Castle before dying on 18 October (or possibly 19 October) 1216, at Newark Castle (then in Lincolnshire, now on Nottinghamshire's border with that county). Numerous, possibly fictitious, accounts circulated soon after his death that he had been killed by poisoned ale, poisoned plums or a "surfeit of peaches". He was buried in Worcester Cathedral in the city of Worcester. His nine-year-old son succeeded him and became King Henry III of England (1216-72), and although Louis continued to claim the English throne, the barons switched their allegiance to the new king, forcing Louis to give up his claim and sign the Treaty of Lambeth in 1217.
