The Wars of the Roses were a brutal and chaotic chapter in medieval England — a series of civil wars fought between two rival branches of the royal Plantagenet family: the Houses of York and Lancaster. Over three decades of shifting power, fierce battles, and political intrigue would eventually culminate in the Battle of Bosworth, ushering in a new era under the Tudor dynasty. In this series, we’ll dive deep into the roots of the conflict, the key players like King Henry VI and Richard, Duke of York, and the lasting influence of the Hundred Years' War that shaped it all.
