Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon
Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon (18 February 1609 – 9 December 1674), was an English statesman, lawyer, diplomat and historian who served as chief advisor to Charles I during the First English Civil War, and Lord Chancellor to Charles II from 1660 to 1667.
Hyde largely avoided involvement in the political disputes of the 1630s until elected to the Long Parliament in November 1640. Like many moderates, he felt attempts by Charles to rule without Parliament had gone too far but by 1642 felt its leaders were in turn seeking too much power. A devout believer in an Episcopalian Church of England, his opposition to Puritan attempts to reform it drove much of his policy over the next two decades. He joined Charles in York shortly before the First English Civil War began in August 1642, and in...

*Update/disclaimer: I realize Anne Neville did not marry Edward "the Black Prince." This was a mistake on my part during the making of this video. Thank you to those who pointed this out.
On 9 September, 2015, Queen Elizabeth II surpassed Victoria as the longest reigning British monarch. In 2017, she celebrated her Sapphire Jubilee, having worn the crown for 65 years. Her reign came as a result of hundreds of years of political action, through multiple usurpations, civil wars and revolutions.

Top 15 Mistresses and Lovers of Historical Figures Who Left Their Mark on History
The title of the royal mistress dates back thousands of years, but not something that you often read about in your history books. Drama and scandal surrounded these women and even the occasional man. Society also often looked down upon them and their actions. Yet these opinions often remained secret and hidden because, for a time, the position of a royal mistress or lover was one of the highest in the land. It was also the most precarious in that one wrong move can remove you from the ruler’s good graces, and may even result in death. Despite the unstable nature of this position, many women and men fought tooth and nail to get it. Few managed to possess it, but these people who did it managed to leave an everlasting mark on the pages of history.
Thank you for watching!

Lord Dunsany Last Scene Of All
Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany (July 24, 1878 – October 25, 1957) was an Irish writer and dramatist, notable for his work, mostly in fantasy, published under the name Lord Dunsany. More than eighty books of his work were published, and his oeuvre includes many hundreds of published short stories, as well as successful plays, novels and essays.
Born to the second oldest title (created 1439) in the Irish peerage, Dunsany lived much of his life at perhaps Ireland's longest-inhabited home, Dunsany Castle near Tara, worked with W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory, received an honorary doctorate from Trinity College, was chess and pistol-shooting champion of Ireland, and travelled and hunted extensively.
He died in Dublin. Edward Plunkett grew up at the family properties, m...

Charles II of England
Charles II (29 May 1630 -- 6 February 1685) was monarch of the three kingdoms of England, Scotland, and Ireland.
Charles II's father, King Charles I, was executed at Whitehall on 30 January 1649, at the climax of the English Civil War. Although the Parliament of Scotland proclaimed Charles II King of Great Britain and Ireland in Edinburgh on 6 February 1649, the English Parliament instead passed a statute that made any such proclamation unlawful. England entered the period known as the English Interregnum or the English Commonwealth, and the country was a de facto republic, led by Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell defeated Charles II at the Battle of Worcester on 3 September 1651, and Charles fled to mainland Europe. Cromwell became virtual dictator of England, Scotland and Ireland, and Charles sp...

初代ジャージー伯エドワード 初代ジャージー伯爵エドワード・ヴィリアーズ(Edward Villiers, 1st Earl of Jersey, PC, 1656年 - 1711年8月25日)は、イギリスの貴族・政治家。

Edward Hyde, 1st Earl of Clarendon (18 February 1609 – 9 December 1674), was an English statesman, lawyer, diplomat and historian who served as chief advisor to Charles I during the First English Civil War, and Lord Chancellor to Charles II from 1660 to 1667.
Hyde largely avoided involvement in the political disputes of the 1630s until elected to the Long Parliament in November 1640. Like many moderates, he felt attempts by Charles to rule without Parliament had gone too far but by 1642 felt its leaders were in turn seeking too much power. A devout believer in an Episcopalian Church of England, his opposition to Puritan attempts to reform it drove much of his policy over the next two decades. He joined Charles in York shortly before the First English Civil War began in August 1642, and initially served as his senior political advisor. However, as the war turned against the Royalists, his rejection of attempts to build alliances with Scots Covenanters or Irish Catholics led to a decline in his influence.
In 1644, the future Charles II was placed in command of the West Country, with Hyde and his close friend Sir Ralph Hopton part of his Governing Council. When the Royalists surrendered in June 1646, Hyde went into exile with Charles, who became king after his father's execution in January 1649. He avoided participation in the Second or Third English Civil War, since both involved alliances with Scots and English Presbyterians, instead serving as a diplomat in Paris and Madrid. After The Restoration in 1660, Charles appointed him chancellor, while his daughter Anne married the future James II, making him grandfather of two queens, Mary II and Anne.
These links brought him both power and enemies, while Charles became increasingly irritated by his criticism; despite having limited responsibility for the disastrous 1665 to 1667 Second Anglo-Dutch War, he was charged with treason and sentenced to permanent exile. He lived in Europe until his death in 1674, a period he used to complete The History of the Rebellion, now regarded as one of the most significant histories of the 1642 to 1646 civil war. First written as a defence of Charles I, it was extensively revised after 1667 and became far more critical and frank, particularly in its assessments of his contemporaries.

10 Alternative Successions to the British Royal Throne

*Update/disclaimer: I realize Anne Neville did not marry Edward "the Black Prince." This was a mistake on my part during the making of this video. Thank you to those who pointed this out.
On 9 September, 2015, Queen Elizabeth II surpassed Victoria as the longest reigning British monarch. In 2017, she celebrated her Sapphire Jubilee, having worn the crown for 65 years. Her reign came as a result of hundreds of years of political action, through multiple usurpations, civil wars and revolutions.
What if some of these decisions and events had not happened? Would Dear Old Liz still be chillaxin’ at Buckingham Palace? Or would a very different person be sitting on the throne?
These are 10 alternative successions to the British throne.
10. The Cromwells
One option is Katharine, the Duchess of Kent. HRH the Duchess of Kent is currently married to the Duke of Kent, Prince Edward--first cousin to Queen Elizabeth II. Had things have been different, she might’ve been Lady Protector instead.
9. Absolute Primogeniture (from Queen Victoria)
In 2015, the governments of all 16 commonwealth realms enacted absolute primogeniture, that is, succession of the eldest child regardless of gender. It does not affect the current line as it is not retroactive.
Though, were it to have been applied retroactively back to, say, Queen Victoria, rather than pass to her second-born son Edward VII, succession would apply to her firstborn, her daughter Victoria. From Victoria, the line of succession would pass through the Prussian royal family, dear old Kaiser Bill, on down to a woman named Frederike von der Osten, the oldest child of Princess Felicitas who died 2009.
8. Margaret’s “half a crown”
As outlined in works by Jane Austen, there is an old act in British inheritance law known as entailment. Upon a lack of a male heir, all property is to be divided equally among one’s daughters. If parliament wanted to nitpick, they could have hypothetically enacted this antiquated custom and divided the throne between Elizabeth and her sister Margaret, akin to William the III and Mary II’s joint rule, the Frankish customs of the Carolingians, or modern-day
Andorra.
7. The Tudor heir (Mary Tudor)
Henry VIII specified in his will were his line to end (which it did), his throne was to pass to the descendants of his sister Mary. Had Henry’s will carried properly, the throne would have instead gone to Edward Seymour, the nephew of Lady Jane Grey from her sister Catherine. From Edward, the throne would pass to current day lords and ladies of Kinloss.
6. Abdication of Richard II
On 29 September, 1399, Henry Bolingbroke was crowned Henry IV of England following the abdication of Richard II. Except Henry wasn’t next-in-line. That honor belonged to Edmund Mortimer, the descendant of Edward III’s second surviving son, Lionel of Antwerp, the Duke of Clarence. Henry was the descendant of Edward’s third son, John of Gaunt.
As Edmund’s descendants married into the House of York, this alternative line would be short-lived, as the two lines would converge under Edward IV.
5. John of Gaunt
John of Gaunt married his mistress, Katherine Swynford, in 1396 and his children with her were declared legitimised by King Richard II as well as the church. Were the descendants of Bolingbroke’s younger half-siblings to have been given preference to Tudor, the crown would be in the possession of the Somerset family, Dukes of Beaufort.
4. Matilda Jones
Seven-year-old Matilda Jones of Doncaster discovered what resembled an ancient sword while having a casual swim in Cornwall’s Dozmary Pool. Immediately news outlets were reporting the story’s remarkable similarity with the legend of King Arthur, who received Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake in a similar fashion--some even say in the same body of water--and went on to rule Britain, defeat the Saxons, et cetera, et cetera.
Despite the sword having been claimed by one Mark Wilkins, who put it there less than 30 years ago, adorable Matilda Jones is still the rightful queen in the hearts of millions around the world.
3. Anglo-Saxon claims
The most likely answer is… we’ve already got her.
2. Jacobite Succession
Modern Jacobites consider the current Windsor family, who descend from Sophia, and her mother Elizabeth Stuart the daughter of James I and VI, as merely a cadet branch of the Stuart family, and that the true heir should descend from Henrietta Stuart, the daughter of Charles I and first cousin to Sophia of Hanover.
Were Henrietta’s descendants to claim providence, her current heir would be one Franz Wittelsbach, the reigning Duke of Bavaria. His heir presumptive third-in-line is his great-nephew Prince Wenzel of Liechtenstein, who is all also second in line to the Liechtenstein throne.
1. George Plantagenet
It is said Richard was away on campaign at Pontoise for the month Edward was supposedly conceived.

On 29 September, 1399, Henry Bolingbroke was crowned Henry IV of England following the abdication of Richard II. Except Henry wasn’t next-in-line. That honor belonged to Edmund Mortimer, the descendant of Edward III’s second surviving son, Lionel of Antwerp, the Duke of Clarence. Henry was the descendant of Edward’s third son, John of Gaunt.
As Edmund’s descendants married into the House of York, this alternative line would be short-lived, as the two lines would converge under Edward IV.
5. John of Gaunt
John of Gaunt married his mistress, Katherine Swynford, in 1396 and his children with her were declared legitimised by King Richard II as well as the church. Were the descendants of Bolingbroke’s younger half-siblings to have been given preference to Tudor, the crown would be in the possession of the Somerset family, Dukes of Beaufort.
4. Matilda Jones
Seven-year-old Matilda Jones of Doncaster discovered what resembled an ancient sword while having a casual swim in Cornwall’s Dozmary Pool. Immediately news outlets were reporting the story’s remarkable similarity with the legend of King Arthur, who received Excalibur from the Lady of the Lake in a similar fashion--some even say in the same body of water--and went on to rule Britain, defeat the Saxons, et cetera, et cetera.
Despite the sword having been claimed by one Mark Wilkins, who put it there less than 30 years ago, adorable Matilda Jones is still the rightful queen in the hearts of millions around the world.
3. Anglo-Saxon claims
The most likely answer is… we’ve already got her.
2. Jacobite Succession
Modern Jacobites consider the current Windsor family, who descend from Sophia, and her mother Elizabeth Stuart the daughter of James I and VI, as merely a cadet branch of the Stuart family, and that the true heir should descend from Henrietta Stuart, the daughter of Charles I and first cousin to Sophia of Hanover.
Were Henrietta’s descendants to claim providence, her current heir would be one Franz Wittelsbach, the reigning Duke of Bavaria. His heir presumptive third-in-line is his great-nephew Prince Wenzel of Liechtenstein, who is all also second in line to the Liechtenstein throne.
1. George Plantagenet
It is said Richard was away on campaign at Pontoise for the month Edward was supposedly conceived.

The title of the royal mistress dates back thousands of years, but not something that you often read about in your history books. Drama and scandal surrounded these women and even the occasional man. Society also often looked down upon them and their actions. Yet these opinions often remained secret and hidden because, for a time, the position of a royal mistress or lover was one of the highest in the land. It was also the most precarious in that one wrong move can remove you from the ruler’s good graces, and may even result in death. Despite the unstable nature of this position, many women and men fought tooth and nail to get it. Few managed to possess it, but these people who did it managed to leave an everlasting mark on the pages of history.

Lord Dunsany Last Scene Of All
Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany (July 24, 1878 – October 25, 1957) was an Irish writer and dramatist, notable for his work, mostly in f...
Edward John Moreton Drax Plunkett, 18th Baron of Dunsany (July 24, 1878 – October 25, 1957) was an Irish writer and dramatist, notable for his work, mostly in fantasy, published under the name Lord Dunsany. More than eighty books of his work were published, and his oeuvre includes many hundreds of published short stories, as well as successful plays, novels and essays.
Born to the second oldest title (created 1439) in the Irish peerage, Dunsany lived much of his life at perhaps Ireland's longest-inhabited home, Dunsany Castle near Tara, worked with W.B. Yeats and Lady Gregory, received an honorary doctorate from Trinity College, was chess and pistol-shooting champion of Ireland, and travelled and hunted extensively.
He died in Dublin. Edward Plunkett grew up at the family properties, most notably Dunstall Priory in Shoreham, Kent and Dunsany Castle in County Meath but also family homes such as in London. His schooling was at Cheam, Eton and finally Sandhurst, which he entered in 1896. Lady Dunsany, Beatrice Child Villiers The title passed to him at his father's death at a fairly young age, in 1899, and Dunsany returned to Dunsany Castle after war duty, in 1901.
In 1903, he met Lady Beatrice Child Villiers (1880–1970), youngest daughter of the 7th Earl of Jersey (head of the Jersey banking family), living at Osterley Park, and they were married in 1904. Their only child, Randal, was born in 1906. Beatrice was supportive, and assisted Dunsany in his writing, typing his manuscripts, selecting work for his 1950s retrospective short story collection, and overseeing his literary heritage after his death. The Dunsanys were socially active in both Dublin and London, and travelled between their homes in Meath, London and Kent, other than during World Wars I and II, and the Irish War of Independence. Dunsany himself circulated with the literary figures of the time, to many of whom he was first introduced by his uncle, the co-operative pioneer Horace Plunkett, who also helped to manage his estate and investments for a time. He was friendly with, for example, George William Russell, Oliver St. John Gogarty and, for a time, W. B. Yeats.

Charles II (29 May 1630 -- 6 February 1685) was monarch of the three kingdoms of England, Scotland, and Ireland.
Charles II's father, King Charles I, was executed at Whitehall on 30 January 1649, at the climax of the English Civil War. Although the Parliament of Scotland proclaimed Charles II King of Great Britain and Ireland in Edinburgh on 6 February 1649, the English Parliament instead passed a statute that made any such proclamation unlawful. England entered the period known as the English Interregnum or the English Commonwealth, and the country was a de facto republic, led by Oliver Cromwell. Cromwell defeated Charles II at the Battle of Worcester on 3 September 1651, and Charles fled to mainland Europe. Cromwell became virtual dictator of England, Scotland and Ireland, and Charles spent the next nine years in exile in France, the United Provinces and the Spanish Netherlands.
