What does the "Wars of the Roses" refer to?
Correct answer: The 15th century dynastic struggle between two royal houses
Tommy Clark
Happens to be a major inspiration behind Game of Thrones - Lannister = Lancaster and Stark = York.

SEJA2, is there any time period that was kind to women?
SEJA2
Fascinating time in history but not kind to women .

I recommend to everyone to watch The Tudors. It's a great show.

Did you ever see the movie "War of the Roses" with Michael
Douglas and Kathleen Turner? I never seen it the whole way

RareLord47628, He was no worse than other kings of the time. Big debates over him, mainly did he have the Princes in the Tower killed so he could usurp the throne? We had lots of usurping and murder during The Plantaganent era. Nothing is as it seems and a fascinating era to learn about, more so than the Tudors. HTH

Player #19052917, but it was one war between them - the skirmishes and battles made up the war. We don't refer to the 2nd World War as the 2nd World Wars because there were localised battles. No, we call it the 2nd World War because each of the battles added up to one big war. the same with the 1st World War and every other war over time. Each individual battle will have its own name, for example, the Battle of the Somme in the 1st World War.

Jordan Reed The Tudors is awesome I love that show as well. Elizabeth of York was Henry VIIIs mother but if you really want to watch a show that is about the war of the roses then you should watch the white Queen which is about Edward VI and Elizabeth Woodville and the White Princess which is the 2nd season and that's about Elizabeth of York and Henry VII.

There's a song by John Lennon on the Shaved Fish album called, "Woman is the N-word of the World." I suggest you all give it a listen. Perspective.

whitesloth91, Not yet. Maybe it's time we MAKE it time...

whitesloth91, read up on female monarchs, and badass women of politics, business and science in world history (such as in UK, China and Russia); given, there were societal constraints and expectations placed on women of all classes, but these leaders (and men included) have, in their own way, created opportunities for many women in their time.

easy question xD
