6:53 "drowned in the English Channel, after his ship sank." Together with 140 other noblemen and 160 further passengers and crew. It would have been more, though some people wisely though about taking the next boat to England when they saw how everyone on board was already completely drunk because the young prince was throwing a party with free wine for everyone. The ship was the last to leave port very late and apparently crashed into a rock when the prince dared the captain to overtake the rest of the fleet. Don't drink and sail.

I love how you manage to make them look distinctly like the person they're supposed to be. William the Conqueror and Richard the Lionhearted are both medieval kings, often portrayed in chain mail, but your William looks like William and your Richard looks like Richard and there's no mistaking them or any of the other characters! Excellent work.

The interesting thing about Odo was that he was William the Conqueror's half-brother; they had the same mother, and William clearly felt he was at least useful so he kept him in his court, though he was disgraced before William died. He must've favored Robert, as he remained in the Norman court during Robert's rule, dying in Sicily while Robert was on his way to the First Crusade.

The general population of England generally rose throughout the medieval period from about 2 million people in 1080 to about 4 million people in 1300 however the population sharply decreased due to the Black Death and then rapidly rose between the 1380's and the 1430's (about the end of the medieval period in England).

Henry II was, without doubt, the baddest of the bad ass Plantagenet kings. I mean, really, even John was a bad ass by later standards, even though he lost the crown jewels in the mud and had to sign the Magna Carta. But from Henry II to Henry III, just a succession of bad ass kings. Then came Richard II. Sigh.

Are there any sources on the pronunciation of 'plantagenet'. You and I both seem to say Plant-a-gen-et, but I have heard (french style) Plant-a-jhen-ay before now.

I am ignorant. i read references to what i assume are board games. Who is Baratheon? Not in any histories i have read. Clearly something got quite popular and i have missed it.

One thing I find out from all this is the movies showing historical events from the Roman times to Queen Victoria have nothing on what has really happened in the past.

"The Anarchy" ? I'd love to know how and when that title was invented, and the excuses for it. From the Greek, "An", meaning without, and, "Archos", meaning rulers or rulership. Nothing to do with being without rules, just being without Authoritarians having some say, in what rules are, where, when or how they're applied

Liked the droll wit. The various claims, given a more modern view, might have been cleared up by a probate court? The point being that the personal property involved was a country or countries.
