Henry VI

Henry VI was the King of England for multiple decades in the mid-15th century.

After his death, King Richard III determined Henry to be "a feeble-minded king", blaming him for the decades-long Wars of the Roses. In 1471, Edward IV of the York family defeated his Lancastrian forces and succeeded him as King of England.

Henry's reign was fictionalised in William Shakespeare's plays Henry VI, Part 1 and Henry VI, Part 2. (AUDIO: The Kingmaker)
