Note: Part 2 has been removed and will be remade! The date for this remake is currently undecided. Correction: Strathclyde was listed as a "Scottish kingdom." To clarify on this - Strathclyde was NOT a Scottish (in the sense of Pictish) kingdom, but was, rather, a remnant kingdom of the related Britons, much like the Welsh, which, later on in its history, was a puppet kingdom of Scotland (the kingdom of Alba) and absorbed into Scotland. When exactly this took place is not known, but it appears to have been under Scottish influence by the reign of Constantine II of Scotland. (c. 940-943).

Although I am an American, I have been studying English history for fifty years. I have read hundreds of books and enjoyed them all as I prefer to go deep into each area but this is perhaps the most concise and unbiased documentary that I have viewed about English history. Next year I will be realizing one of my dreams- to visit England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland and see all the places I’ve been reading about. Congratulations on your video. I hope people see it as the tip of the iceberg and that the real enjoyment is in learning about these people and places in depth.

I get your point but most from England or even Europe in general don't understand our geography, culture, or history either. It's understandable. If any school child was expected to know ALL geography and history, it would take hundreds of years to educate them. Imagine teaching all of American, European, African, middle eastern, Indian, Asian, etc history/geography without watering it down a bit. No library could contain such a mass of information. You know as little about us as we do of you. I hate that. I'd love to know everything about everything. It simply is an impossible task and should never be expected or condemned. Be realistic.

I have to correct your grammar here: 1. A capital letter, 'W', is required in 'would', because it starts the sentence. Moreover, the sentence would have been better had it begun with 'It'. 2. The auxiliary verb, 'would', is conjugated with the verb, 'to have', and not with the word 'of'. 3. The grammatically correct agreement in your subclause is, '...if you had added...'. 4. The word 'timescale' is, as you can see, written properly as a single word and a comma is required, I suggest, for precision of intended meaning after the word 'timescale'. 5. A sentence is not ended until, no, not until 'the fat lady sings', rather until a full stop* is added. So putting it all together: It would have been better if you had added dates on the screen, or a sort of timeline to keep the viewer well located. Though stylistically, I think it would be even better with: It would have been great had you provided dates on the screen or via a timeline so as to orientate the viewer in time. Now, go to you room, you naughty boy, and write that sentence out 200 times! Interestingly, 'full stop' is written as two separate words whereas 'timescale' and 'subclause' are written as single words. How delightfully obscure is the English language.

This is the essence of the Humanities and Liberal Arts - to study and learn and respectfully disagree on human achievement, with a mind at once open to disagreement and alert to misinformation. It's all good fun and oversensitive criticism of minor differences of opinion or interpretation is not consistent with the spirit of the Enlightenment.

The "Wars of the Roses" is a modern term and only came about from a scene in the Shakespeare play Henry IV part I, long after the events. The banners of the warring factions were varied - Richard III's was a white boar, Henry Tudor's was a red dragon. 45:30 Henry Tudor, a Lancastrian, married Elizabeth the daughter of Edward IV, a Yorkist, not Henry IV, who was a Lancastrian.
