Extractions: History : The Romans conquered and settled the major part of the British mainland between the first and fifth centuries AD, although their influence was limited in the northern and western regions. After their withdrawal (410-442), the island was invaded by Jutes, Saxons and Angles, who established seven kingdoms in the area south of Hadrian's Wall. Scotland and Wales remained Pictish/Celtic. By the early ninth century, Wessex had emerged as the dominant kingdom and was the spearhead of resistance to the Danish invasions, particularly during the reign of Alfred the Great. By the time of Edward the Confessor (1042-1066), England was the most highly organised state in Europe and this position was consolidated when Norman military feudal organisation was imposed by William I and his successors (notably Henry I and Henry II) after 1066. Inheritance and dynastic marriage had given England control of most of France by the 12th century, and the territorial disputes were not settled until the end of the Hundred Years' War in 1453. The 12th century also saw the conquest of Ireland, although it was never fully integrated into the political life of the mainland (see

Extractions: The Richard III Foundation, Inc. is respectfully requesting that the bones in the Tower, that are alleged to be the sons of Edward IV, be subjected to modern scientific examination and the treatment of DNA analysis. The examination of the bones will not only bring closure to their identity, but it will also bestow them with an appropriate and lasting place in the annals of history. King Richard III, the reigning monarch from 1483-1485, has through the writings of Sir Thomas More and William Shakespeare been vilified for over 515 years. It is imperative that we put to rest the resolution of one of Englands greatest historical mysteries. But, it is equally paramount that we provide justice for a man wrongly accused. Sir Thomas More wrote "The History of Richard" in 1513. More was five years of age when Richard became King of England and lived in the household of John Morton, a Lancastrian sympathizer. More had no interaction with Richard and relied upon anti-Yorkist sources for his information. His publication was never published during his lifetime and contained many blank spaces making it plausible that they were filled with historical inaccuracies. We have no knowledge if Charles II read Mores account. What we do know is that during his reign, bones were found while demolition was taking place in the Tower and were presumed to be the missing princes.

http://www.2think.org/history_of_britain.shtml

Extractions: The second volume of Simon Schama's A History of Britain brings the histories of Britain's civil wars full of blighted idealism, shocking carnage, and unexpected outcomes startlingly to life. These conflicts were fought unsparingly between the nations of the islands Ireland, England, and Scotland and between parliament and the crown. Shattering the illusion of a "united kingdom," they cost hundreds of thousands of lives: a greater proportion of the population than died in the First World War. When religious passion gave way to the equally consuming passion for profits, it became possible for the pieces of Britain to come together as the spectacularly successful business enterprise of "Britannia Incorporated." And in a few generations that business state expanded in a dizzying process that transformed what had been an obscure, off-shore footnote to Europe's great powers into the main event the most powerful empire in the world. Yet somehow, it was the "wrong empire." The British considered it a bastion of liberty, yet it was based on military force and the enslavement of hundreds of thousands of Africans. In America, the emptiness of British claims to protect "freedom" was thrown back into the teeth of colonial governors and redcoat soldiers, while the likes of Sam Adams and George Washington inherited the mantle of Cromwell.

Extractions: Royal Britain: The Monarchy from Alfred the Great to Elizabeth II "This royal throne of kings, this scepter'd isle ... This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England, This nurse, this teeming womb of royal kings, Fear'd by their breed and famous by their birth" William Shakespeare, Richard II, II, i, 40. It is difficult to separate the history and culture of Great Britain from the personalities, politics, and policies of its monarchs. Who can imagine the Church of England without Henry VIII (and his wives), the English Renaissance without Elizabeth I (or Shakespeare's plays without the Wars of the Roses), the American War for Independence without George III, the British Empire without Queen Victoria or contemporary royal roles without Prince William? By listening to lectures by British experts on the monarchy; by studying historical, artistic, and literary portraits of the kings and queens; by visiting palaces, castles, educational institutions, and churches associated with royal rule, this course will focus on the ways in which the monarchy has shaped political, social, economic, religious, and intellectual developments in Great Britain from the Anglo-Saxons to the present.
