Ironically it was more like neither, henry was only distantly related to the Lancasterians through an illegitimate line from his mother and not his father, who wasn't a royal at all, he didn't unite the two dynasties as much as creating a new dynasties, while optimising his connections to the dynasties to legitimise his rule

If it wasn't for the unimaginative naming customs of late medieval lords, this would be easier to follow. Imagine if not everybody involved was either Henry, Edward, George or William. I was rooting for the guy who couldn't decide whether he was Jack or John.

I thoroughly enjoyed this episode once I decided to stop trying to keep track of who was allied to who about three minutes in. :D

Damn this was hard to follow, even though I was a little familiar with the material already. I think putting faction symbols next to names onscreen might have helped.

Context: Warwick When Edward started to strip powers from Warwick and give them to his new wife's family he wasn't just inconveniencing and embarrassing an old ally that had put him on the throne but was also endangering every person who supported Warwick's family. A common complaint when a person "lost favour" was "you are destroying my people" and this was the literal truth. Law was not impartial in England at this time and the rich took what they want (see the problems the Pastons had with the Duke of Norfolk at the time as a classic example). Losing favour meant that lands would be seized, law cases would be judged against the out of favour party and serious, often deadly, repercussions were the result. We tend to see these things through the lens of what's known as "Big Man History" where we see the "great people" as individuals and not the heads of whole communities. Much like the Mafia behaves now (they are very medieaval in outlook) any member of a group is seen as equally to blame for any damages to someone by that group and this meant the weaker members of the out of favour group would be sought out and victimised. He couldn't do that or he was violating the iron rule of late medieaval feudalism; " *Good Lordship* ". If you failed to maintain your people then they were free to desert you and without that community your were powerless. In summary Warwick had no option but to rebel and it must have been very clear to everyone at the time that this would happen.

Yes, the brave Yorkists turned about, and gallantly they chickened out. (You're lying!) Swiftly taking to their feet, they beat a very brave retreat. Bravest of the brave, the Yorkists!

It was more likely that Buckingham just wanted the throne for himself.

One thing you missed which I think is very important is the fact that the Tudor line is directly descended from the Beaufort line (Duke of Somerset) and that line was declared illegitimate by their own admission and renounced their claim to the throne.

"The death of Henry Vi died... probably from a case of the Murders." Probably the best line

You should try Italy where Florence, Pisa, Milan, Venice, Genoa, the Papal States et. al. were all fighting each other with German, French, and Spanish allies and were having civil wars within the City States as well.

This is the first explanation that I've ever been able to half understand who's who in this war! Thank you!

I'll never. Ever. Ever ever ever... get tired of the thud and the falling over when they die. Lol!

All hail His Grace Henry of the House Tudor, the Seventh of His Name, King of the Andals, the Rhoynar, and the First Men, Lord of the Seven Kingdoms, and Protector of the Realm!

At the time it was known as the cousins war. The war of the roses was applied much later. I loved the comment - a bas case of the murders. Brilliant

Hooray! I love this!

You know, this might be my favorite Henry. He’s has a good mentality, trying to keep everyone from killing each other, but they’re just intent on slaughtering each other.
