Nobody ever talks about how close Henry V was in completing taking over France and becoming king of France if only he lived for 2 more months it would’ve happened
Basically James I/V’s mother married the king of France at the time. However he died of something in his ear before they had a child. Supposing they did have a child before he died, and history remained unaltered, a French James I would of inherited France, then Scotland, then England
These British monarch stories are amazing! From Alfred the Great’s battles to Elizabeth II’s big changes, history is full of surprises. I’ve got a video about some surprising presidential assassination attempts you might like. What did you find most interesting about the monarchs in this video?
Empress Maud was declared Queen of England and she’s missing in the list except for a little mention. And King Louis isn’t there either. He was proclaimed too. Poor Queen Jane, she’s not mentioned either.
Matilda was never formally crowned, she was in the city of London/Westminster and the lords decided they weren't in the mood to take orders from a woman, so they rebelled and chased her off.
Pre Cromwell Alfred the Great for me was the most impressive, his story is truly remarkable and well worth reading about. Post Cromwell I'd say Elizabeth II, nobody is perfect but for me she conducted herself amazingly, with dignity and grace and was everything a figerhead should be.
William really had no business becoming king. He only did so because Mary didn't want to bother with most queenly duties after she committed treason by chasing her king father and his rightful heir out of the country. What an absolutely wretched daughter.
He could have claimed it through right of conquest and half did. They were joint rulers being both king and queen. When it came to deciding each of them said the other should rule so they decided to split it
William the conquer is my great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandfather
Lol, Jane? A Queen? No. Jane is a usurper and no way near a Queen. It is clear in Henry VIII’s succession act that after Sweet Lil Eddie comes Mary. Don’t besmirch our history with filth.

Hard to tell, but there’s potential for William to be a unifying figure like George V, whose dad aka Victoria’s son was disliked for his colourful love life and largely prioritising himself, while George V was known for prioritising his family and his country, ending the ‘tradition’ of having a mistress and largely shaping the royal family to be as approachable as it is rn
You didn't even mention Jane Grey... the Nine Day's Queen...! She might not have reigned for very long.. but she should've gotten at least a little side note in your video!
Girly pops, funny how it never dawned on you that England was a KINGdom for a reason. The English throne is reserved for men, ONLY for men. Matilda was disputed, she’s not liked by the english people either, only some parts. Also, Jane is no where near a Queen. Jane was a usurper, funny how y’all forget about Henry VIII’s succession act 😂 After Edward is Mary. Don’t besmirch our history with filth. A usurper will always be a usurper and a disputed claimant will always be disputed.😂
It would have been so much nicer if you had added just a quick comment on each as to how they were related to the previous monarch: son, daughter, cousin, sibling, etc. Also you left out Lady Jane Grey.
Nope, Jane is no where near a Queen. Jane was a usurper, funny how y’all forget about Henry VIII’s succession act 😂 After Edward is Mary. Don’t besmirch our history with filth. A usurper will always be a usurper.

True and I fear that can’t be topped, until Charles III and his son William pass an early death. Making Prince George a king at a very young age , assuming he would rule for a long time without illness ( which I don’t wish for .)
Until 1603 this should be called 'English' monarchs. There is no 'British' crown until the Union of England and Scotland, which took the Scottish line of succession.
Lol, Matilda and Jane were never Queens. Matilda was disputed and not Crowned. On the other hand, Jane was a usurper, funny how y’all seem to forget about henry VIII’s succession act which puts mary after edward. Don’t besmirch our history with filth and propaganda.
I like Charles III, but he hasn't had enough time as Sovereign to leave a strong legacy. That said, it would be inappropriate to judge him. So, I would say my two favourites are Queen Elizabeth II and King George VI.
Yeah, most historians afaik expect him to be a ‘transitional’ king, which Charles supposedly doesn’t love-tbf considering all the years he’s worked in conservation and stuff to be called a transition only lol
Nobody ever talks about how close Henry V was in completing taking over France and becoming king of France if only he lived for 2 more months it would’ve happened
They would have split off like austria and spain under the habsburgs from the administrative strain of the king managing two kingdoms at once
You *COULD* argue an ear infection prevented the unification of Britain and France later on
One of the greatest what ifs in history.
wait what? i don’t get it

You forgot about the 9 day Queen Jane Grey
And Empress Mathilda
Jane was an illegitimate monarch
@@alanescobarmartinez192She never formally became Queen of England though right?
@@NarnianHogwart as Jane Grey.
@@alanescobarmartinez192 I meant Mathilda not Jane Grey who was declared Queen.
Edward VIII's reign wasn't the shortest of any british monarch. In fact Jane Grey and Edward V had shorter reigns.
エドワード８は君主の中では４番目に短いみたいです。最短はジェーングレイ、二番目に短いのはエドワード５、三番目はハロルド２世

Alfred wasn’t a king of England
Can-oot, Half-a-canoot, Dooms-day... and Henry ! is most well known for "Not going on hunting trips in order avoid myseterious deaths"
It was clearly an accident...😂
Empress Maud was declared Queen of England and she’s missing in the list except for a little mention. And King Louis isn’t there either. He was proclaimed too. Poor Queen Jane, she’s not mentioned either.
Matilda was in fact never queen she lost the anarchy to Stephen but her son was king though
That’s because their reign is still disputed by historians so it’s always tricky whether to add them or not.
Matilda was never formally crowned, she was in the city of London/Westminster and the lords decided they weren't in the mood to take orders from a woman, so they rebelled and chased her off.
@@scottmcginn2169 Edward viii wasn't formally crowned either but he was still King
Maud is disputed lol, no way near a Queen Regnant. Jane on the other hand is a usurper (Funny how y’all forget about Henry VIII’s Succession Act.) 😂
Pre Cromwell Alfred the Great for me was the most impressive, his story is truly remarkable and well worth reading about.
Post Cromwell I'd say Elizabeth II, nobody is perfect but for me she conducted herself amazingly, with dignity and grace and was everything a figerhead should be.
My Favorites are George VI and Elizabeth II
You guys forgot about Lady Jane Grey, but good either way!!😍
She's not an officially recognized monarch.
@@TyreeEverdingneither is Edward viii or Edward v
@@TyreeEverding Neither is Oliver Cromwell. If he was going to be on the list, Jane Grey should have been too.
@@Diamond_Jubilee Edwards V and VIII are recognised as being kings they just were never crowned
@@Yorkiecarlos neither was Jane grey, so she should be counted as well. It’s just sexism
Just an aside…. Mary II was why William even became king. The throne came through her but this video kind of frames it like it was William.
He was actually third in the line of succession after Anne being the son of King James II's sister.
William really had no business becoming king. He only did so because Mary didn't want to bother with most queenly duties after she committed treason by chasing her king father and his rightful heir out of the country. What an absolutely wretched daughter.
@@Crazy-Cat-Lady-of-CA Yep. Mary II and William III were first cousins
He could have claimed it through right of conquest and half did. They were joint rulers being both king and queen. When it came to deciding each of them said the other should rule so they decided to split it
I can’t express how happy I am that Charles went with Charles III. It just makes things so easy 😂
William the conquer is my great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandfather
Studies show that about 25% of people in Britain are descended from William the Conquerer
You mean your 39th great grandfather
@DrawingWithPatchara6778 yep
Care to be more specific?
How tf do yall get this info like how can they trace your blood to his blood
You forgot to include Queen Jane Grey, the 9-days queen who succeeded Edward VI
Did they put Queen Anne Boleyn? No because she didn’t stay as queen
@@Anne_boleyneatsthey didn’t put Anne Boleyn because she married into royalty…
Right I was looking for Jane too
Lol, Jane? A Queen? No. Jane is a usurper and no way near a Queen. It is clear in Henry VIII’s succession act that after Sweet Lil Eddie comes Mary. Don’t besmirch our history with filth.
No. Jane was no where near a Queen. She was a usurper. Don’t besmirch our history with filth.
I predict that either Prince William or his son, Prince George, will be the last king before the monarchy is abolished once and for all.

Love the channel and history.
While Jane Grey was a somewhat controversial omission, the lack of mention of William III and the slandering of Anne was more frustrating.
the current british monarchs are more closely related to the scottish monarchs
I really like you are this type of content please make more
Good video.
Ya'll just gonna pass on the intro
EDIT: "from divine rights to royal Instagram likes." 😂😂😂😂
Edward V's reign was the shortest in England. The youngest monarch to come to a throne in the British Isles in Mary Queen of Scots
Lady Jane Grey had the shortest at 9 days
Jane actually had the shortest reign. Unfortunately she wasn’t mentioned in this video
do history of roman figueres next
Victoria, strict morality. Oh boy do we need that now.

Alfred the Great became a Martyr on 10/26/899. Also it's my birthday 🎂 in 1963
Cromwell - Baze

I have a soft spot for our Charlie-boy III. I just pray his cancer doesn't cut his reign short :(.
Him and Edward VII very similar, their mum's had long reigns therefore shortening their sons.
Pretty sure Cromwell and his son were not monarchs. Although they had monarchs powers in all but in name
Richard the Lionheart is the GOAT

she was executed almost a year later

3:55 so is it kh-nut or se-nut? Jk I know neither are right, kh-noot would be a more accurate transliteration

Cnut is pronounced 'canoot'. There are lots of people we call 'cnut' these days but its spelled slightly different now.
My favourite is Queen Elizabeth II
Y'all forgot about Matilda and Jane 😭
Matilda - Disputed and Jane - Usurper. These women are no way near a Queen. They didn’t ate or slayed either.
Wow❤
Lady Jane grey was skipped apparently 🙈
William the Conqueror has left the chat
So we only including the English monarchy then? What about the Scottish and Welsh ones? British isn’t just English…
George III is still the longest reigning KING of the British empire
True and I fear that can’t be topped, until Charles III and his son William pass an early death.
Making Prince George a king at a very young age , assuming he would rule for a long time without illness ( which I don’t wish for .)
Edward V obviously
You can’t just call Edward the 8th the shortest reigning monarch and miss out lady Jane grey.. you can’t get much shorter than 9 days
Edward V had a shorter reign then Edward VIII
There is no way you called Canute the Great, «Cee-Nut» wtf. And why did you not give Svein Forkbeard, lets say, an actual beard???
