  • In the 13th century, England was marred by internal strife known as the Second Barons' War (1264-1267). This civil conflict pitched the barons, led by Simon de Montfort, against King Henry III and his royalist forces. The war stemmed from deep-seated dissatisfaction among the barons, who sought a redefined balance of power. This historical struggle, marked by political complexities and shifting allegiances, underscores a crucial period in English governance. The events that transpired during this time laid the foundation for significant political changes, shaping the course of the nation's history.

    So, Edward, I did at Lewes, old 25, the same as Alexander the Great at Chaironeia, old 17? I think Edward´s overall rule is more about meticulous planning (Iron Ring Castles in Wales) a shrewd battling (Scotland) than temperamental excesses.

      @@HoH 12:02 A mistake here. "Rout" is pronounced 'r-ow-t' rather than 'roo-t'.
      'Route' is pronounced 'root', so it's a tricky one. I do give you credit for seemingly being the only non-native English speaker who actually tries to speak the language as a native; it's a standard expected of us if we're learning a foreign language, and we get discounted if we don't speak French, Spanish etc. as natives, yet no-one who speaks English bothers to sound authentic, instead opting for the thickest accent. Save for you. So respect. One mistake in nearly 15 minutes of talking; you're doing well. To other non-native speakers, put in the same effort!

Most barons were either Norman descendant with a minority being descended from pre-Norman anglo Saxon barons. The French were definitely distinct and have always been. Even the the Normans were only partly French. Besides if you a baron in England you are an English baron regardless of your ancestry.

You know very little of my ancestors or you wouldn’t make sweeping statements like traitor . If it wasn’t for my family we wouldn’t have common law via the Magna Carta or parliament ( which is french and literally means we are meant to talk about it ). Simon was on the side of the people , that’s you , by the way . Yet you ,who knows very little about the subject of medieval politics , kingdoms or people , another one with expert knowledge consider him a traitor. The biggest traitors in history were and are the English fake royal family.
