  • The Plantagenets

    The early Plantagenet kings, of French origin imposed themselves fully on England and oversaw huge advances in reform and to a lesser extent, military conquest.

    The House of Plantagenet ruled England from 1154 to 1399, and was succeeded by the rival Houses of Lancaster and York, who were themselves both direct descendants of the early Plantagenets.

    Origins of the Name
    The surname came from the flowering broom plant (Planta genista), said to have been worn as a badge by Geoffrey, Count of Anjou between 1129-1151 who was the father of the first Plantagenet King of England, Henry II.

    The members of the dynasty often had fiery and violent tempers, possessed huge amounts of courage and imposed themselves fully on their kingdoms. Richard I said of his family:” from the Devil we sprang and to the Devil we shall go”.

    Plantagenet Rule
    Under the Plantagenets huge advances were made regarding constitutional reform. The origins of Common Law originated under Henry II as did trial by jury, and the first Parliament was held in 1265, albeit against the contemporary monarch Henry III.

    Military conquest also featured heavily, with Wales and Ireland subjected to English rule, and inroads made into Scottish and French territory.

    Our thanks Madame...methinks the vermin have scurried off to hide in the dark from whence comes all evil. We shall root them out.

    The Plantagenets have mustered our power and stand ready. Ha...our old women could set them right with little effort given the opportunity.

    By St. Michael we shall soon have our foot at the serpent's neck.

    'Tis time to purge the Plantagenet domain of those that would dare hurl insults at our pride and slander our Faith.

    We suggest an obvious and simple solution to this dilemma. Block them without delay.

    If they be so foolhardy as to return, report them to the Higher Powers and By St. Michael and St. George and all that is Holy they shall be cast down into the pit to endure an eternity of hellfire.

    "Caedite eos! Novit enim Dominus qui sunt eius!"

    "Slay them all. God will know His own!"
