Wars of the Roses: England’s Bloody Crown | Medieval History

England’s Bloody Crown is a Wars of the Roses Documentary that begins six-hundred years ago, when England was ripped apart by a series of bloody battles for the throne, known to history as the wars of the roses. These bitter civil wars that raged in fifteenth century England had all the ingredients that might make for a modern day blockbuster movie. Intrigue, plotting and treason, brutal murders, unsolved mysteries all went hand-in hand with the savagery of mortal combat. These civil wars became known as the wars of the roses due to the red and white emblems that distinguished the two deadly rival factions of the House of Plantagenet - the Yorkists and the Lancastrians.
