plantagenet

If you have any substantial English ancestry, there is a Plantagenet somewhere in your family tree to a mathematical certainty.

I think this girl landed on Plantagenet mostly because he would have a well-documented lineage compared to your average serf.

He destroyed his immediate Yorkist family and indeed the whole Plantagenet dynasty.

I just hope that twenty first century San Fran can tone down the barbarity to merely that of Plantagenet England.

Taking a few Plantagenet examples, the nobles imprisoned Edward II as retaliation for the plots of Hugh Despenser, and then the king died mysteriously (adverb used ironically).

Anybody that would seriously consider instituting the California-mandated fucking terrible gasoline can designs across their entire company should be drawn and quartered, in the style of the Plantagenet English monarchy.

She's married to both King of France and King of England, and mother of three kings during her lifetime including King John Lackland Plantagenet (progenitor of all 43 US presidents except one).

Except that the most interesting fact is that the mother of King John Lackland Plantagenet (the common ancestor), was Eleanor of Aquitaine who's arguably the most powerful woman in the world's history [1].

Once power was consolidated however, the clergy and the royalty pushed their law and hierarchical order onto the mostly aristocratic feodality, it broke and you get the crusade against Alby, the war between Plantagenet and capetiens, and probably a lot of other misery inflicted to the general population.

She's the mother of King Richard the Lionheart, the infamous Crusades King l, and also mother of King John Plantagenet.

Plantagenet was Angevin, meaning from Anjou in France, because Geoffrey of Anjou married Matilda.

Its pretty silly, but I always think of the conqueror as Guillaume le Bâtard and the Angevin/Plantagenet monarchs as Henri, Eduourd, Jean, etc when I think of this period of history.
