About this listen

Do you want to dive into the gripping story of a royal family that changed a whole country? The Plantagenets ruled England with strength and cunning, and their story is filled with drama, battles, and family fights. If you love stories of kings, queens, and the fight for power, keep reading!

What you’ll discover:

  • 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.
  • Legendary Battles: Explore the famous Wars of the Roses, where family members fought against each other for the throne. See how these battles were about more than just winning—they were about survival.
  • Secrets and Scandals: The Plantagenets didn’t just fight on the battlefield; they also had to deal with backstabbing and secret plots in their own courts. Find out how these hidden betrayals changed the course of history.
  • Lasting Impact: The Plantagenets helped create important laws and systems that we still use today. They weren’t just fighters; they were builders of the future.
  • The Fall of a Dynasty: What caused the end of this powerful family’s rule? See how the Plantagenets went from ruling England to losing it all.
