After the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and the end of the Hundred Years' War, England plunged into the bloody dynastic conflict known as the Wars of the Roses. In this episode, Lucas and Luna examine the 1471 Battle of Tewkesbury, the decisive engagement that crushed the Lancastrian cause and cemented Edward IV's hold on the throne. They explore the campaign's desperate gambles—from Queen Margaret of Anjou's return from exile to the fatal Lancastrian decision to give battle on unfavorable ground. They discuss the tactical deployment of archers and billmen, the role of 'Fierce' Edmund Beaufort, Duke of Somerset, and the brutal aftermath where sanctuary was violated. They also touch on the political intrigue: the defection of Warwick the Kingmaker just a year earlier, the shift in Yorkist loyalty, and how Tewkesbury Abbey became an unwilling witness to bloodshed. A story of medieval warfare, broken promises, and a kingdom forged in slaughter. #BattleOfTewkesbury #WarsOfTheRoses #EdwardIV #MargaretOfAnjou #EdmundBeaufort #HouseOfLancaster #HouseOfYork #MedievalEngland #15thCentury #Tewkesbury #TewkesburyAbbey #Yorkist #Lancastrian #WarwickTheKingmaker #PrinceEdward #BattleOfBarnet #MedievalWarfare #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
