    History is often written by the victors. Following that logic, it would make sense that Richard was written about in a dark light. As stated in the video, most monarchs during this time were neither good nor bad, but sort of just did what they could to hold onto their power and survive.

    Henry VI would, had he been anointed king in modern times, been likened to George VI. He treated his wife better than most men of any time and was treated badly for seeking her council which today would be considered natural. Like Abraham Lincoln he pardoned freely any man sentenced to death as like Lincoln, bloodshed and the duty of signing death warrants was repugnant to him personally. Like Edward The Confessor he was pious and tried hard to live in Christ's example...a hard thing for any monarch to do. He should be called Good King Henry rather than Henry The Mad. If kindness and gentleness be Mad than we xould do with many more Mad rulers. Henry is in every way the opposite of his ancestor John The Bad. So why not call him Henry The Good?

    It's unfortunate that Edward III, had so many wars and sons! He had been a great King! Henry V was just a warrior, not a King or father! Piety! Many healthy uncles, leading army's!Take the child to France, crown him overseas!? 😰 (Mums gone!) Puppet King! 😵 Comes the Pope! 😒 Owen TUDOR! 😠 Make people happy! 🤨😳 (So many capable relations! 😩) Eton and Kings College! 😇😏 Enter Queen Margaret! 🧐🤭

    English, after 100+ years fighting the French When peace was agreed They returned to England and fought each other . Wiping out the ones with true claims to the throne Ending with the weak tudor king Henry 7th ruling . A weak paranoid king who spent most of his time hiding in his rooms . His son arthur died & Henry 8th became king After hurting his leg he became a tyrannical wife and freind killer. His son was a rabid protestant and destroyed more churches than all the viking raids put together. His sister Mary ( known as bloody Mary, burnt so many protestants she needed to resort from single to mass burnings.. Elizabeth 1st died childless meaning England had James Stewart 1st of England a Scottish king , who's Stewart family caused all sorts of trouble. Ending with his sister Mary and her Dutch husband William becoming king and queen under restrictions of parliament.

    So although no evidence exists on the murder of Richard's nephews, no one wonders why on earth he did not search for them or inquired about their disappearance since he had undertaken their care and safety? But good that he had a royal burial while most likely his nephews are still locked in that container.

    The princes may have been alive during Richard III's lifetime. My bet is that they were living at Middleham with their cousins. It is also possible that the princes were sent overseas, possibly to Margaret of York, the Duchess of Burgundy.

    If they were killed at all, it was likely perpetrated by the Duke of Buckingham for his own regal ambitions. It's more likely that Richard secreted them to his sister in Burgundy. That urn likely contains children from 2,000 years ago, based on the fact that the bones were found 10 feet deep. No grave was dug to that depth, especially under a stone staircase. The grave was more likely already present before William the Conqueror built the White Tower.

    The princes in the tower could just as easily have died of any of the illnesses rampant in their time. Similarly, they could have been killed by someone who thought they were furthering Richard's cause, but without his knowledge or consent. Regardless of how they died, and even if Richard was in no wise to blame, he must have known that he would have been blamed for their deaths in any case. It would have been ironic if they had died of some fever or other "natural cause." Then again, it would make sense in terms of the reign of Henry VI and the power struggles surrounding the infant king, that having another underage king would have prolonged the instabilities and infighting that had been going on since Henry VI's infancy. For an adult Richard to have taken the throne would have brought stability. If he could have neutralized Stanley, he might have been able to pull it off.

    What about the people that really sorted stuff out. The engineers and inventors of the time. The people that made it all possible. Why do historians just concentrate of a few people at the top? Is it to maintain the myth of royalty and so we end up with Charles a man totally unworthy of the role of king, a protector of the defrocked sex offender Bishop Ball?

    No I disagree, he's not trapped at all. His FIRST duty is to the people of these Islands and to the rest of the Commonwealth, before everything else he must put us all first. His family have to come second in this. I am usually sympathetic and a supporter of King Charles but this seems crystal clear even to me.
