The story of Robin Hood is based in reality, therefore the characters are based on actual people. The most obvious would be de facto Prince "King" John the cowardly ruler (only in charge because his brother King Richard the Lionheart is away fighting the Crusades) who through a series of unfair taxes and bumbling attacks has in fact caused his kingdom to crumble, and turn against him. This week we will be exploring the Character of "King" John and how his ineptitude as ruler led to the creation of what is one of the most important documents on government ever written (hey it goes by a latin name you know it's important) the Magna Carta!
We will also watch feudalism continue to crumble with the 100yrs war between England & France and on Friday we will be discussing the role of Women in history. Don't miss a moment of it.
