Henry IV did not pass in 1483, and he was not the father of Edward V. Henry IV was Henry V's father and VI's grandfather. Edward IV died in 1483, who passed the crown to his son, Edward V. Richard was not given the title of Lord Protector straight away. He siezed his nephews and then received the title.

I'm surprised Henry VII didn't make it onto this list, since he locked up his wife's cousin, a 10 year old boy who probably had intellectual disabilities, and then had him executed for pretty much no reason. Then again, he was Henry VIII's father, and that's reason enough for me.

Elizabeth I is an example of how you can both Evil and Great at the same time...

[@kathleenchafe2770]

How was she evil

[@ladyv5655]

I don't believe she had anything to do with Amy Dudley's death. As for her killing of Catholics, the Pope had branded her a heretic and pretty much encouraged her Catholic subjects to kill her. Mary Stuart was put to death for plotting her assassination along with others. Elizabeth was actually not concerned with her people's religious beliefs. She was concerned about survival. There is a good case for Mary 1st being on this list, though. Mary knew her cousin, Jane Grey, had been a pawn of others and was not a threat to her, but because Mary was eager to marry Philip of Spain, she ordered Jane's death because the Spaniards refused to allow the marriage as long as Jane was living.

[@robertd.carver6240]

I disagree vehemently regarding Elizabeth the First. Having witnessed and been victimized by her parents' disastrous marriage and seen how horribly her father treated his subsequent wives, there was no way she was going to give any man control over her life, Amy Dudley's death may not have been accidental, but trying to attach blame to the queen in any way is way off the mark. As for Richard the Third, there's no doubt in my mind that he did not kill his nephews. There were many others who wanted the boys dead and buried, not least Margaret Beaufort, whose son Henry Tudor had as near a valid claim to the throne as any of the potential candidates. Beaufort's third husband, William Stanley, was Warden of the Tower of London, into whose supposed safe-keeping the young princes had been given for their own protection. They may well have actually outlived their uncle Richard. When Henry became king, their elder sister, Elizabeth, was re-legitimized by act of parliament in order to marry him, which meant that the boys were also re-legitimized and therefore a threat to him. There were several other possible murderers as well. Richard may not have been any better than any other medieval monarch, but he was no worse either.

[@frankmaeder4358]

I agree on Elizabeth I; all the catholics she supposedly killed were plotters against her and her life; she faced one plot after another, which she discovered thanks to Walsinghams talents, they were by no means innocent victims.

[@Ashas.Garden]

[@endorathewitchwriter1712]

Agree!

[@notperfectandneverwillbe4825]

I totally agree with you. I immediately disagreed with the classification of Elizabeth I as one of the most evil. Mary had way more people killed for religious beliefs than Elizabeth. Her reliance on Phillip of Spain was also technically treason by allowing him to basically rule from Spain. Her mental illness is understandable due to Henry VIII's treatment of her mother, Catherine of Aragon.

They were horrified at the prospect of the sitting monarch being a Nazi and German sympathizer during a. war between the two countries. Therefore encouraged the romance between Simpson and Edward to get him off the throne. The plot made perfect sense to me. I wouldn't be surprised if it were true, either.

None of the people she burnt alive took part in any rebellion or conspiracy against her. Did the people Elizabeth I execute do so (and they were NOT burnt alive)? Yes, yes they did. Did those Elizabeth I also execute (again, NOT burnt alive) hold a Papal Bull saying that any "good Catholic" should kill her? Yes, yes they did. Tell me, who gave the order for those 276 men, women and CHILDREN who were burnt alive to rebel against Mary I? What battle did they fight to do so? Oh, wait, that's right, there was none. No Holy Father gave the order to his followers to kill Mary, was there? I will give you, she did not order those burnings out of spite. She ordered them so she could "save" their souls, again, NOT because they were a "threat" to her. Also, the people she had hung, drawn & quartered who were part of Wyatt's Rebellion were also executed by law, which should not be held against her. But saying those she burnt were an "active threat to her life" is not held up by ANY historical FACTS. Try sticking with those when you talk about ranking kings & queens.

Edward Duke Of Windsor was queen Elizabeth ll uncle and Andrew Duke of York is Queen Elizabeth II son. They’re nothing like trump

[@cynthiabrent6479]

@@pennyboulton9676 actually I'm making a reference to Donald Trump being a fascist like the Duke Of Windsor; Prince Andrew Of York having the utter foolishness of associating himself with Jeffrey Epstein & Ghislaine Maxwell, two people that Trump himself associated with. Also, Trump has been accused of underage sexual assault as was Prince Andrew.

Ridiculous. When Trump was president we had no inflation, we were energy independent, had control of our borders and wars were coming to an end. Just the opposite of where traitorous Joe has taken us.

Henry VIII didn't just kill 2 of his wives and their suspected loves, he killed 70,000 of his own people. He alone was worse than the entire Plantagenet 300 yr reign, BUT if you include his daughter Bloody Mary and the burning at the stake of thousands of Protestants, then, Elizabeth I's, the Tudor Dynasty make anytihng any king or queen had ever done, angelic for sure!

If my knowledge serves me correctly about James the VI, historically he's been looked at as one of the worst monarchs ever, but in recent history that's been re-examined and he's thought of as a serious and thoughtful monarch with the best of intentions that just couldn't quite rise to the occasion and devastated most of central Europe in his attempt to unify everyone
