  1. Most of the Royal Shakespeare plays were inaccurate, he was paid to create alternative histories and propoganda - particularly by the Tudors!

  2.  @teledan105  Rubbish, he was large and stronger than most of his brothers! He was born in Ghent, France, called Gaunt in England! 😠Just call him the Duke of Lancaster!!

  5. Richard was a spoilt Narcissist, with no practical skills to run a Kingdom. The tragedy was first his birth, then his lack of ability to learn and grow, and finally his irrational behaviour towards his dedicated and loyal Uncle, and cruelty to his cousins! 🤨 The picture shown in this video of supposedly Prince Henry is actually a picture of Prince John of Gaunt, fail! 🧐 Unfortunate late birth to an older and distant father, just an old professional warrior who eventually married to please his parents! The royal heir and all first sons were required to stay home centuries later, but that was probably his fate! Richard 1 was married off by his mother in a warzone to keep the line going for her own benefit, ridiculous when she knew he was homosexual! Such ambitious Parents are frighteningly ruthless, and rarely successful! Anyway, Richard II was a mistake all round, a tragedy waiting to happen - for England and his family! Sad for King Edward III, John of Gaunt, Henry Bolingbroke, etc! 😪👍 Luckily the current Henry isn't the Royal heir! 😳

  6. The rightful King was not necessarily the right King genetics is completely random sometimes! Sad that Henry Bolingbroke was born to be a King! Sad that Edward III had stronger middle sons, sad that Henry V ever married at all! They should have all jousted for the crown, one on one! 🤔
