Battle of Bosworth 1485 - Wars of the Roses DOCUMENTARY

Go to www.wix.com/KingsAndGenerals to get started on your website today!
Check out our new website at kingsandgenerals.org
In our previous animated historical documentaries within the series on the Wars of the Roses, we have covered the victories of the house of York and its leader Edward IV during the battles of Towton, Barnet and Tewkesbury. Yet the conflict for the English throne was not over and another representative of the Lancasters - Henry Tudor would challenge the successor of Edward, Richard III during the battle of Bosworth.

1. It is highly recommended to pause at 3:26 and look at the family tree. 2. Speaking of the family tree, we have "condensed" it somewhat. There were 2 Johns of Somerset and the first of them was the father to John of Somerset and Edmund of Somerset. 3. The sources are conflicted about the battle, so there are other versions. Some of the sources put Stanleys to the north of the battlefield, as their main holdings were to the north, however, they also had lands to the south of Bosworth, and the logic of the battle tells me that they were to the south. There is also a matter of the troops Henry Tudor had, some sources claim that most of his troops were from France and Scotland. We know that at least 1000 French soldiers fought for him, but that can't be said about the Scots - he obviously had no time to get any troops from the Scotland proper, so a few sources claimed that the French king gave him a unit of his Scots Guards (Garde Écossaise), but it is hard to believe in that, as the kings don't usually give away their guards. 4. Some scholars think that Stanley and Buckingham participated in the disappearances of the Princes in the Tower, either to help Richard III or to make the nobles and the commoners hate him. 5. More planned on the British history - your support would help us immensely!

Additionally very dangerous if that becomes known. There must be plenty of supporting evidence to prevent that theory from being dismissed as speculation.

Richard III lost a big number of the traditional York allies. Everyone was tired of the dynastic war and Richard angered both the nobles and the commoners with his power grab.

[@algprei4243]

yes, my first thought was that it was Henry III with his vanity that put house of York in a severely weakened position in which York house ultimately lost. That power grab was a stupid and selfish idea.

He most likely murdered his nephews, even in those days that doesn't impress anyone. Plus he no longer had the Nevilles

@@KingsandGenerals also thomas stanley is married to henrys mother margaret beaufort, and margaret is part of a close household of richard, she gained a lot of power by being close to the King and married to a powerful noble which is thomas. Thomas will of course side with her wife and support henry, the only reason why he was undecided up to the battle was the size of Richard army.

Sad reality is that he would have been an incredibly effective king. He was one of the, f**k the rules, I'm king types.

Bosworth was not 'one battle and over' for the Yorkists. Tudor historians like to ignore the Battle of Stoke in 1487 which Tudor nearly lost while further invasions and fighting continued until 1497 with the Battle of Blackheath. Henry VII and VIII continued to hunt down and execute anyone with Yorkist blood until well into the 1530s.

[@KingsandGenerals]

Good eye :-)

[@renshiwu305]

Philippe de Commynes, a counselor to Charles the Bold, Duke of Burgundy, and later a counselor to Louis XI, King of France, claimed that it was the renunciation of the Treaty of Picquigny that caused Edward IV's apoplexy and early death. Charles the Bold died in 1477, leaving his young daughter as sole heir to the lands of Burgundy. The daughter Mary married Maximilian of Austria - but she died suddenly, leaving their young son as Duke and the father as regent. Maximilian made an agreement with Louis whereby Burgundy would cede territories along the Franco-Burgundian border, and his daughter would marry Louis' heir, the future Charles VIII. By doing so, Edward's daughter Elizabeth was cast aside. She was pledged to marry young Charles by the Treaty of Picquigny. Moreover, whereas before, Burgundy was a state sympathetic to England and antipathetic to France (and Charles had been Edward's brother-in-law), now Burgundy and France seemed to be coming into accommodation with one another.

[@joesteers5807]

Great video! I’d like to point out though that generally contemporary accounts all agree that Henry’s personal body guard didn’t directly engage in the main battle between Howard and de Vere. The horse flanking manoeuvre on Norfolk’s left was probably led by George Talbot, noted as commanding a unit of mounted spears. It’s believed that Richard in fact spotted Henry and his body guard crossing an exposed area beyond the rear of the fighting making his way towards Stanley’s position (presumably to try to convince him to commit to his cause). It was at this moment that Richard took his chance and William Stanley -frustrated by his older brothers indecisiveness - swept in on Tudors side. Also it’s important to recognise Rhys ap Thomas’ crucial role in this battle. His 1000 or so vengeful Welsh soldiers really gave the Ricardians a beating! They added a huge boost of strength for the Lancastrians.

but in battle of bastards I got the feeling that the reinforcements were much stronger than the original forces.

[@ecallawmk]

@@itzikashemtov6045 Yeah, im aware of that.

[@ecallawmk]

@@nomooon Thats true. In size of the army, u're right. But in composition its the same, since The Valley had greater army but brough only the cavalry cos thats the fastest unit that can come in time.

Not to mention that the Yorkist//Bolton commander had recently deposed his relative(s) to seize power (Though in Bolton's case, he fed his baby brother to the dogs instead of "just" locking up his teenage nephews. The comparison is actually pretty ironic, given that the Starks are usually compared to the Yorks, not the Lancasters.

I know about this battle. Henry VII's family or dynasty was the Tudors and his son was Henry VIII. Once again the best video ever

[@KingsandGenerals]

Thank you!

[@SpikeyNorman47]

Plz do the Tudors! You guys are amazing!

[@KingsandGenerals]

Thank you!

And before the video, the teaser of the last season of Game of Thrones appeared as advertisement, how convenient!

[@KingsandGenerals]

Huh. :-)

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

I hope it doesn't suck like last season

[@rsync9490]

@@worsethanjoerogan8061 it might overall. But the episode Michael sapochnik is directing will probably make up for it. Hardhome and botb were both fantastic and directed by sapochnik.

@@supahwafflz You watched 7 seasons of a show that you apparently didn't like from the start?

[@worsethanjoerogan8061]

@@CamelsHighOnCrayons Despite being a book fan I'd say the first four or five seasons were good. I knew the show was going downhill once they had the Sand Snakes kill all the Martells in contradiction to everything we know about their characters and motivations.
