    People want to throw shade on Isabella . But I stand by this queen. She was no ''She Wolf '' It was just that she got sick and tired of being a doormat. She fought back.
  • @Senacacrane
    Thank you for uploading these two documentaries in one video.
  • At least their marriage, however disastrous it turned out to be, resulted in England's greatest king : Edward III. Love your video on him too

    If she didn't schemed, she would fallen as a victim of someone else's scheming.
  • @merrygangemi
    This was the clearest and most credible explanation of Edward III's sexuality. The more perspectives we have access to, the better the understanding.
  • @RM-uk1sd
    Edward behaved horribly at their wedding already, to the point that her French guests left loudly voicing their disapproval.

    At the 2:19:50-2:21:15 mark, I counted eight consecutive insults. And I figured he was unpopular, but I never thought he was so detested that, as revealed at the 2:23:27-2:23:49, only 55 men answered a 2,000-man call.

    I always feel conflicted about giving a thumbs up 👍 for these poor babies stories, however, their stories must be told if we're to learn and evolve

    What the fuck did I spend my time listening to? God, I love this channel

    During the reign of Edward II, the conflict between thebking and barons was obvious. And the king had his male favourites, Gaveston and Despenser. Thus the queen had an affair with Mortimer which led to the deposition of the king. Fortunately their son, Edward III restored everything back to 'normal'.

    Excellent narration and content. Very informative and enjoyable indeed.

    The misogyny of the time painted her a “she-wolf” but if she was a man, she would have been revered and regarded as doing what came naturally. I think she was a strong women who did what she had to, to protect herself and her children, being a woman in a man’s world… initially. Absolute power corrupts absolutely, and once she was unchecked and in charge she did become tyrannical as her children no longer needed her protection, but once she was back as a player she once again made choices to help her family. I don’t think she’s as black and white as people make her out, I think she’s a complex character in shades of grey, like we all are. She’s wasn’t bad or good she was just doing what she needed, in a turbulent time, when the only thing more dangerous than being on a battlefield, was being a woman.

  • @SaltyChip
