このコンテンツについて
This episode explores the reign of Edward I, one of England’s most formidable medieval kings. A seasoned warrior and reformer, Edward strengthened royal authority through legal reforms and transformed Parliament into a more structured institution that included nobles, clergy, and commoners—laying the groundwork for future representative government.
Edward first turned his military might toward Wales, defeating Prince Llywelyn ap Gruffudd and cementing English control with massive stone castles that still stand today. He then imposed his son as the first Prince of Wales.
His greatest challenge came in Scotland, where his attempt to dominate the throne sparked fierce resistance. Though he crushed King John Balliol and executed the rebel hero William Wallace, the Scots continued to resist under Robert the Bruce. Edward died in 1307 while marching north to subdue them again.
Edward I left a legacy of strong governance, legal reform, and imperial ambition. To some, he was Edward the Lawgiver—to others, the Hammer of the Scots. His power built a stronger England, but also sowed the seeds of rebellion for generations to come.
