  • How It All Began: Learn how the Plantagenets started as a small family and became rulers of England. What challenges did they face to gain power?
  • The Lives of Kings and Queens: Meet rulers like King John, who was such a weak ruler that his people forced him to agree to the Magna Carta, and Richard the Lionheart, who fought bravely but met a tragic end. Also, discover the queens who had just as much power as the kings.
