The intro makes the Plantagenets sound like sexy, ruthless overlords who were brilliant tacticians - but what's ironic is that it's a legacy of incompetence as much as monarchy. Henry's son Richard I didn't give a fig for England, and his ransom crippled England's economy. Then Richard's brother John lost all the family's French possessions and had to sign the Magna Carta to survive politically. Then John's son Henry III was a weak shadow of a king. Really the only powerful Plantagenet kings past then were Edwards I & III, and the usurper Henry IV and his son Henry V. The Yorkists before Henry VII were on very unsteady ground, which is why they didn't last long.

Henry II, Edward I and Edward III were all talented kings (although both Henry and Edward's talents declined markedly as they aged). Henry IV was a marked improvement over Richard II but he was also deeply miserable as King. By 1410, Henry V was effectively running the country. Speaking of Henry V, he was a talented king who probably would've completed Edward III's goal of kingship over both England and France, but for his early death. Henry VI was a disaster. Edward IV was a puppet for the first half of his reign, although in the second half after dispatching of Warwick, he asserted himself admirably. Richard III was not nearly so bad as the play makes him, but he almost assuredly had his nephews murdered after promising his older brother (whom he had previously been very loyal to) that he would protect them.

@@lawrence142002 Yup I know all that and I didn't say Henry II was incompetent. Edward IV's best days were on campaign for his father Richard's claim, and then toppling Henry VI. After that, he faded as king. And Richard III doesn't even deserve to be on the rolls of kingship.

@Obtuse One Well said sir. Richard 'the lion heart' is one of the very worst Kings in English history. He spent the vast mojority of his time galavanting around like a spoilt brat (at vast expence to the English people, for whom he did NOTHING), only to get captured and imprisoned (and thus screw the country again for literally a King's ransom), only to return and screw the country out of yet MORE money, only to f*ck off again and die of the shits! And by doing so he bankrupted the country so that his brother King John could do nothing to protect the continental territories, and thereby take all the rap! And what's more, his wife Berengaria of Navarre, so called Queen of England, is the ONLY so called English monarch NEVER to have even set foot on English soil! Seriously, how this leech ever got implanted into the minds of Englishmen that he was a any kind of hero, makes you wonder who would benefit from such a blatant distortion of history, doesn't it? 🤔

John may have been Henry's favorite, but he was nothing like him. Henry had both administrative and soldierly ability. He did pass on his talent as a soldier to Richard, but his other sons were next to useless. John was an incompetent thief who loved to rape (even by the relaxed standard of the era) and he murdered his own nephew Arthur (son of his deceased older brother Geoffrey) in order to make sure that he got the crown.

"...his Plantagenet rage comes out..." What bad history. Henry's father Geoffrey of Anjou was a cold, calculating sort of fellow. The out-of-control temper came from his great-grandfather William the Conqueror on his mother's side. Yes, this raging was passed down from there to future Plantagenets, but it's out of context to credit it as a family characteristic until another generation had come to power. If your mother's grandfather had flaming red hair, and your father's name was Snerd, and you were born with red hair, would it be right to call your hair "That famous Snerd red hair"? Not until your descendants passed it along.

They didn't speak Modern french or even old french though, they spoke Norman French and later Anglo-Norman French. Norman French sounds quite different to Modern French and sounds like French with some Norse mixed in. The peasants also didn't speak Modern English, they spoke a later form of Anglo-Saxon or maybe early English. Anglo-Norman French and Anglo Saxon eventually became one language each influencing each other. This is why some argue that English is a Romantic language and not a Germanic language. The truth lies in between.

Normandy kings More Vikings than French. Angel saxons we’re basically early Vikings. England is really a Viking country with a few kelts left in Wales. That explains the violent history.

They spoke a version of old French that sounded like a blend of German and French. Nothing like modern French but I'm guessing the show's budget didn't include language coaching in archaic languages for the actors. Old English was still spoken by the peasants until the mid 12th century when it was gradually replaced with middle english (Chaucer)

I absolutely loved this story. I've always been a huge fan of the Tudors so I thought I'd learn more of English history. Americans aren't taught any English history. If you can't interest them in there own history there's no way you can interest them in a thousand years of complicated but fascinating history.
