Just an FYI - Charles didn't marry Camilla only a year after Diana died. She died in 1997, he didn't marry Camilla until 2005. That is 8 years later.

This is the first You Tube that gives a comprehensive history of Great Britain because it is clear and in complete chronological order. In addition, you finally have a narrator that is excellent and easy to understand. The other ones I have watched have been a major disappointment as the narrators digress into other minor areas that are confusing and not as important as understanding how his great land formed. Congratulations to whom put this together and especially to the. gentleman who narrated it!!!
Lois Heuer, (from the US) Please have more like these.

FYI Aethelflead, Alfred The Great's daughter, fought the Danes and Vikings to unite one England with her brother. It was Aethelflead who conquered York and Oxford and gave to her brother to add to Wessex and create a larger England. She was known as Lady of Mercia or the people called her their Queen of Mercia. She helped raise Aethelstan, her nephew, teaching him of reign and war. But her brother tried to write her out of history. It would be nice if she were added into this section because without her, she continues to be erased from such an important part of history.

No mention of Eleanor of Aquitaine? Henry II would have not been as powerful as he was if it weren't for Eleanor and her landholdings.

You should make a docu like this on the monarchies of other European countries. Great work! 👍

I decided to watch this because I have been so invested in GRRM’s fictional royal history in the world of “A Song of Ice and Fire”. It’s so interesting because I can see so many of the ideas that he had were based upon the real history of the English throne. Aegon the Conqueror is basically William the Conqueror. Matilda’s claim to the throne and the subsequent civil war is extremely similar to the Dance of the Dragons civil war. And the War of the Roses is literally the basis for the Game Of Thrones story, although I think a lot of people already knew about that one.

[salsagator]

I really enjoyed it. Nice to have a straight chronological review of the Kings and the highlights of their time. Many thanks.

This was an epic documentary. If you take note of the few errors and correct them (and the mispronunciations of some place names!), it will be an exceptionally educational video.
This popped up in my videos.

In 1996, the stone of Scone was returned to Scotland. It is kept in Edinburgh Castle with the Honours of Scotland. The stone remains property of the Crown and is transported to London for use at coronations.

A few mistakes and a few people pictured with the wrong pictures/ portraits like example when talking about Mary 1st you used a picture of with Mary the Queen of Scots was used instead of using a picture of Mary 1s but other than that it wasn’t a bad documentary. Very informative.

Wow, what a comprehensive exploration of British history through the lens of the monarchy! The video does a fantastic job of highlighting key turning points and fascinating figures, from Alfred the Great to Queen Elizabeth II.
