Ranking History: The Wars of the Roses Historical Figures: Henry VI

Most of us have probably seen those reels or videos of people ranking objects, people, or things as crazy as personality types on a scale of S-D (S being superb and D being the worst).

Book Review: The White Knights

We all know the typical events for starting a war or rebellion: over-taxation, an assassination, or political corruption. But did you ever hear about the prank which caused a rebellion?
