So who killed the children? Richard the 3rd was horrified by their disappearance and looked bad. His honesty and integrity came into public question as he was in charge of protecting them. So he didn't kill them even though he had the best and most opportunity. Lady Margaret Beaufort, mother of Henry VIIth was known to openly speak of wishing those children would disappear. But as a thin, short frail woman, it is highly unlikely she could get past the guards, chase 2 10-12-year-old boys around to kill them by hand when the boys could likely outrun her, were stronger than she, and could more than likely beat her up. Richard IIIrd's wife Queen Anne Neville never expressed any ill feelings towards the children in the tower and Henry VII was in France at the time. Even he expressed that he would not want to be king over the dead bodies of 2 innocent children. Even though his mother Lady Margaret would be good with it. The most likely scenario is that some 2nd in command of Henry VIIth who would also greatly benefit from Henry being made king, snuck over to London from northern France without Henry VIIth's knowledge or consent, and accomplished disappearing the children in the tower. Might have Lady Margaret paid him to do it? Possible. And not unlikely given her attitude, her ambition for her son, and knowing that her son didn't want to assume the crown by killing children.

I do have a question about the French Queen. I have never seen a KZreadr make a topic about it, it's a what if video. Imagine if Mary tudor, the French Queen had lived to the age of 100. I know this sounds crazy but imagine the political and the legal ramifications and even the dynastic consequences. If Mary the French Queen was alive there is no way that would happen to Lady Jane grey would have even taken place. Elizabeth and her sister were summoned after Edward passed away and they simply just refused lol. They knew better and had informants who warned them to not go, or they would be imprisoned. Imagine the scenario okay Edward passes away and Lady Jane grey and Frances Brandon is living with Mary the French Queen in her estates.... No one is going to bully the King's sister. She is settled and has her own money and it's not going to let anyone tell her what to do, parliament lol.

The agony of just not being sure he was her brother must have been dreadful. Even though your head says ‘no’, you can’t stop the heart just thinking ‘what if’.

Lady Katherine was a cousin of the King of Scotland. It is unlikely that James V would marry a relative to someone he suspected of being an imposter. Just as demonstrated in "My Fair Lady", being a noble involved a certain posture, body language, accent and behavior that almost became instinctive. No matter how much he resembled the Yorks, if Warbeck did not have the characteristics associated with living in a sophisticated court, he would not have been recognized as a prince by so many people. Warbeck supposedly had a cast in his eye, a physical trait that he shared with other British royalties. The people who supported Warbeck obviously did not grab some likely looking boy and give him a crash course in princely behavior. Henry VII was a vengeful man but he spared Warbeck for a long time. Monarchs had a horror of spilling royal blood.
@wcfheadshots2406 күн бұрын
I wonder if Katherine was happy to marry Warbeck? Did the Scottish King & the Duchess of Burgundy really believe Warbeck was Prince Richard? Or is this our perception 500 years later? It seems a pretty sad ending for her as her husband was excuted & she became a permanent "guest" with no autonomy.

I think it was analysed well here for the doubt in that did Margaret do it as the daughter and sister to those killed by the Lancashire side and as a sister to two York kings and an aunt to Edward V, with potential of hoping an agreement strong point of power through the claimant, (or even if she was desperate enough to want to believe a York claim lived) to believe in York, as she also argued James IV seeking someone to ally against the English to underminee - I always thought he maybe thought if by placing this person now who he can pretend he thought royal and then hope to undermine him later and claim him a fraud as many also had done. However rightfully there were never any bodies shown so claims could be made anywhere and everywhere

I suspect that Elizabeth of York had to be loyal to her husband (Henry VII) and had to bury her own feelings about Warbeck possibly being her brother. Maybe it tortured her to some degree but she kept it to herself. I think due to this conflict of emotions, she likely treated Lady Katherine as nothing more than a high born noble lady with all the respect due to her rank and not a sister-in-law.

I was surprised when you said that Katherine was a fervent Protestant - I assumed, given her mother's background and connection to Katherine of Aragon, that she would have been more Catholic-inclined. Is there any reason, perhaps relating to her father, or husband, that she embraced Protestantism so entirely? Incidentally, how could both her sons have been dukes? Surely Brandon had only one dukedom... Or did the elder die first and thus the younger became duke for his remaining half-hour of life (is that how it works between brothers?) And I had to smile wryly when you remarked upon how "we couldn't imagine what it would've been like just to leave everything and go to a foreign country" - sadly, millions of refugees know this situation all too well, and they rarely have comparable resources to those that Willoughby and husband doubtless took with them when they fled...

Strange to think that serfdom was only abolished in most of Eastern Europe in the early to mid 19th Century; in the then Russian Empire, which included the majority of Poland, Ukraine, Lithuania, Caucasian Georgia etc. only in 1862-1865, so almost exactly the same time that the United States abolished slavery. However, I get the impression that for people from Eastern Europe it is mostly relegated to history books and not still a burning issue as slavery can be, particularly in English speaking countries. I have not heard of anyone bearing a grudge about it today, demanding reparations for serfdom or pulling down statues of famous people from the 18th or 19th Centuries because they had estates worked by serfs. I assume that the increasing preference, even by landlords, for rent paying tenant farmers over customary forced labour for part of the week from serfs, was that a tenant farmer, working for themselves, had more incentive to work hard and efficiently, because anything they earned beyond what they needed to pay rent and taxes was theirs to keep. Hence they produced more, so, subject to determination of prices and rents by supply and demand, in principle the landlord could take more in rent even as the tenant also took a larger surplus from the land. Also, as suggested in this video, feudal obligations associated with serfdom tended to be fixed at e.g. so many days labour ploughing, sowing and harvesting in the fields plus 3 pigs 🐖 per year or whatever in a way that made sense when the custom was established. However, if markets and agriculture changed this might no longer be what the landlord most wanted. Perhaps in a later time it became more profitable to have 🐑 sheep, shepherds and people to spin wool. A market economy where the owner could choose how to use his land, who to hire to do what kind of work etc. was more adaptable. Which is not to say that everyone lived happily ever after. Even if the economy as a whole prospered, if pursuit of profit led landowners to switch to a different or less labour intensive form of enterprise some workers could find that they were surplus to requirements or had the wrong kind of skills. Which is more like the economy we live in now.
