Wow more of my families Ancestry.
I am the ×generations great grandson to King Edward 1st Longshanks Plantagenet and Queen Eleanor Castile. They started my family line, their Daughter Princess Joan of Acre is my ×Generations grandmother. So hearing my families history still intrigues me. Except the history of King Henry the 8th, family still hates him most of all. He was afraid of being overthrown.
Do a documentary on Napoleon Bonaparte.
1:06:25. Most accurate portrait I'd say.
7.5/10 as kings go. Son vould have been a 10. His cousin richard was a 4 😂😂
I found myself admiring him even more as I listened. From studying period of Richard II, I concluded that Bolingbroke was a dutiful, wise and enlightened king.
According to himself and his supporters, sure.
This video is complete garbage. I don’t know where these so-called historians were educated but they completely failed to understand the very basics of source criticism and method.
Immensely underrated King of England in my humble opinion!
I really enjoy the history of the Plantangenets. And People Profiles does a wonderful job in regard to documentaries about them. The Tudors get all the attention and I personally like the Plantangenet dynasty better. And I like the Anglo Saxon period too. Alfred the Great is another one of my favorite rulers of England.
Fascinating history. A lot of abusive shitty parenting. A lot of lessons that can be learned
Would you like to be a prisoner of Heinrich 4? To belong to him, to be submissive to his will, to fulfill all his wishes?
Yes they do
I couldn’t agree more!
@Sheila horn. My thoughts exactly. Based on what your said, i will watch the anglo saxon period next.
He sounds like a sound, dutiful and reasonable man.
He’s a drunk and a degenerate gambler lol who beats his wife 🤷🏽♂️ just offering a alternative
I always enjoy reading about the parents of the more famous rulers, like it gives you perspective of who/what made that famous ruler the person they were.
Henry IV sounds like the best of leaders, always trying to do his best for everyone in the realm, not just himself.
Thanks! I truly enjoy your deep dives and I learn so many new things every time. As an American the history of England is so intricate and long! Sometimes I struggle to make certain I’ve got the right Richard and correct Henry! 🙄🤣Thank you for everything you do I look forward to your videos!
This video is my fav till now. Only cause I'm one of the few King Henry IV fans! What an understimated king and character almost like his father!... Cheers from México I love your channel and bios.! (Specially medieval ones)
I am so very touched by the thought of a priest telling a sick dying old man a white lie so that the man could die happier. It's actually very sweet.
Merciful isn't it ❤
I guess the priest felt it was the best way to honor his duty to bring comfort to the dying.
I always thought it was funny that Edward 3 claimed the throne of France through the female line (his mother) and Henry 7 claimed the throne of England through the female line, but Richard 2 only became king because the people who made such decisions disregarded the female line...
The female line only counts when you want to overthrow someone.
This narrator is my favorite. I've read some negativity about him. However, I listen to these to help me fall asleep because my brain goes crazy when I go to bed. His voice just soothes me. And if he is reading this, I always listen to the whole thing when I am able. Thank you sir for the history story and the side effect of helping me get some sleep.
Still rooting for that Cesare Borgias doc! 😜
That being said, I love the history of English royalty. You guys do great work, thanks for the excellent content!
Excellent, going to watch this a few more times as there is so much detail. Thank you.
Henry was the worst possible guy for Richard II to make an enemy of.
Henry Bollingbroke reminds me of Henry Tudor, as they both did their best work BEFORE ascending to the throne in removing their respective Richards.
However, they then went on to have short, cold, unstable, paranoid reigns that were dogged with doubts about the survival of the previous monarch, pretenders galore, financial issues and legitimacy concerns, as well as having sons who were more youthful, energetic and popular itching to take over.
Undeniably, both were mostly excellent when you take their lives as a whole, with John of Gaunt and Margaret Beaufort, respectively, raising them very well.
Good video. Watched it 4 months ago. And listened it to again today. And just as refreshingly detailed as the first time.
Thanks for the upload! Always wanted to learn more about Henry IV!
My first super thanks! Thank you so very much, I truly enjoy the vids that you put out and appreciate all the hard work!
Thank you Tara!
The narrator voice is so good ! Thank you for the episodes as well
Thank you for such an informative documentary on our king. I have been watching your videos for a few years now and I love them, especially your videos on the Plantagenets! I've learnt so much from this channel so thank you, also I would love to see another video on Henry V, I love the house of Lancaster, anyway thank you 😊
Excellent! Initially I mostly knew about Henry IV from his part in other people's stories, like Owain Glyndwr's, & I've been trying to learn more about Henry specifically, & this pulled everything together really well. I have to agree that he's underrated, & judged too harshly- what the heck did he do, except usurp a murderous tyrant who'd had 20+ years to change his ways & didn't? It was also great to watch this right after the one on John of Gaunt- I feel very educated on the origins of the Lancastrians. Henry V next!
Henry IV rocked!
Another fantastic historical video from you. Thank you for your work. My ancestry and blood lines many you mention who are Great Grand Fathers of mine thru time. Many of whom were on opposite sides of events over the yrs, many married each other. Mowbray, Despencer, DeMortimer, de CLair, DeBerkeley, and FitzAlan and of course my 6 kings from William 1066, Henry I, II, and III, John and Edward I . By 1424 my blood was all of these lines in one
Yet another really great video. I am still hoping to see a Margaret of Anjou video though.
I would love to see a Henry VI, and Margaret of Anjou Video, or a Heraclius video eventually !
Elizabeth Woodville video as well.
@@michaelsinger4638 there's one already
Ah I see. Isabella of France then. The She Wolf is so fascinating.
I think Margaret Beaufort is the most impactful woman in English history, but those mentioned in this thread are not far behind.
I understand Bolingbrook felt it necessary to do what he did by overthrowing his cousin the king. however it set a really bad precedent thereafter.
I'd argue that precedent was set earlier with the overthrow and forced abdication of Edward II. But then again I am a big Henry IV fan so maybe I'm biased.
@@olivergibbons9581 you could but the difference in Edward II overthrow was that he was still succeeded by his son... the great king Edward III. Plus his overthrow waa largely orchestrated by his wife & her lover Roger Mortimer & not by the nobility at large but I digress.
Do yourself a big favor. Watch, listen, try to learn...but...keep a very open mind and do not judge. Different documentaries may report similar information but with very different subjective analysis.
All royals are the same out for them selves thinking they are chosen by God ( the invisible entity that's not their) give me a republic any and all times.
Always fascinating and very informative video. Cannot wait to listen to more tales of the history of England.
I enjoy history. I enjoyed this video of Henry the Forth. I don't remember reading anything about him before. Thank you,
New subscriber here! I found this channel by chance a few days ago looking for information about Francisco Franco, and I've been binging your videos since then. Having gone through nearly all of the ones for the monarchs of England/the UK (and being new to the fascination with the British monarchy altogether), it would be tremendously helpful if all of those videos were arranged in a playlist that were ordered chronologically. In any event, though, this channel is of extraordinary quality, and I am beyond pleased to have found it.
Bad reputation? I do not understand why Henry IV would have one. What I understood from this documentary, he truly tried to rule so that it would be good for the realm - unlike his predecessor. When change was needed, he yielded for change, unless it meant that the poor would have to suffer. I really got the impression that he was treated unfairly by many parliament members, and even that conspiracy against him during the early years of his reign was unwarranted.
He was seen as a Usurper by a lot of foreign powers, he was particularly hated in France, since unlike the Plantagenets, the Lancastrians spoke English in their court instead of French.
@@Gabryal77 I understand that, but it doesn't explain why he would have a bad reputation _today._
He was a underrated king
An excellent video about an excellent king.
Very well presented
Thanks. Could you make a "history of England" playlist?
One battle he himself killed 34 people. Jeez the things these people did and went through.
please do a video on Henry vi, the mad one.
Very soon.
My favorite channel
Love that you really take your time with these videos
well made and entertaining
you had the information about who trained Henry IV in the Martial Arts.
for several years now I have searched for who trained " the lionheart" In martial arts.
is there any chance that you have that information?
This was a great king, one of the best if one takes into consideration the circumstances
I haven't been watching long but enjoy your presentations very much. It occurs to me that of all the countries' rulers the British have been about the most meticulous in recording their particulars. It seems so counterproductive for these proud men who wanted history to remember them to all adopt the same names. It's hard enough remembering what was done but it was all done by fellows with the name Richard or Henry later George got into the act. It does get a bit confusing but I'm not British. Thank you for a very enjoyable video.
I think hes amazing °~•.☆.•~°
He became capable as each challenge arised.
As Mediaeval English kings went, he was obviously on the better side. On the one side Stephen, John and Richard and Edward, the second of those names, lower the bar such as to trouble a skinny limbo dancer, so the few like Edward III and Henry V who shine are most notable. A palm tree is not so novel in the Tropics, yet big news in Siberia.
Thanks for this!!!⁸
You are very welcome.
good work on attaturk
He is indeed a very Good King.
Henry seemed to expose that the real problem wasn't the King, but the greedy nobles and church.
Love history your accent makes it even better:)) 😊👌🙏
The negatives about Henry IV have probably creeped in during the York's rein. I see more ground to believe that Henry was good intended and more decent then most of his class of his time.
Very underrated King
7:26 "Henry did not know his mother, because she died before he was born"
King Henry the IV had good points & bad points, like us all, thanks for sharing.
I think Henry IV was a great king .
For centuries , he has taken alot of heat for being a traitor or usurper .
And there might be some truth to these condemnations .
But if you look at the reality of his situation , he had absolutely no choice . It was survival . It was self defense , if you ask me .
And I won't throw shade on him . Richard II was unhinged - a complete sociopath . No one was safe - peasants or nobles or clergy . Richard was a maniac !
Henry , really did not have a choice .
* There was one thing this documentary left out . A really important element .
This documentary completely left out that Richard put together a Seperate army made up of mercenaries called The White Heart . They wore blue liveries , with an embroidered White Stag on it . The White Heart soldiers reminded me of The S S. Einzsatsgruppon Death Squads or S.S. Deathshead units of Medieval Times .
What is the name of the music at 46:24?
Can you please make one about william of orange ?
Top documentary
Where did the Queen Elizabeth II video and Prince Philip videos go?
There were some errors which needed changing.
@@PeopleProfiles ok
@@PeopleProfiles Oh, okay. I watched the Elizabeth II one and then it vanished the next day, haha.
I enjoyed it but wondered why you did not include Richard II's two expeditions to Ireland.
It is hard to judge a king so much controversial, but he was capable of fighting for what he thought was just.
Was the succession for Richard II formally announced before the black prince died or set out in Law? Surely there must have been a case for John of Gaunt to succeed Edward when the black prince died? He was the eldest son at that point, would have saved a lot of bother, Henry Bollinger's claim more legitimate than I had thought.
Could you do Marie Curie?
I think Henry IV did his best and Richard II didn't really give him many options. However he opened Pandoras box where closest claims to the throne didn't matter if you had a larger army. However it wasn't his fault that his grandson Henry VI was so utterly inept/unwell which led to the Wars of the Roses.
So Henry straight up Deebo’d the throne from Richard. Pretty gangster
Underated king a merit to his father whom also was a dutiful man
A good king but a bad politician, a curse of warrior kings.
This is interesting
Henry IV is my 12th great grandfather
Bedankt
Thank you!
Any peoples who can burn someone alive are irredeemable.
Wasn't he the first English king to speak English at his coronation? Very interesting & transitional time for England. Their continental holdings had been lost. Which prompted his son to continue the 100 years war. The economy and population had been devastated by the black death years before. And Richards 2 suspicious nature about the nobles created a turbulent kingdom. What's amazing about Henry lV is that he was able to hold on to the kingdom and die king! His death & the black prince are odd. Do historians know what caused their deaths in such a wasting manor? Well done as always! Cheers!
Medical historians suggest he had psoriasis, which caused the skin rashes (although in his day it was called leprosy, but not the same as the modern disease). The acute attacks that caused his slow decline & death came from either a cardiovascular disease or epilepsy.
Please do Ronald Regan next!!
Do you want all his jokes included? 😁
He seems to have been an effective king
why does he wear an Ottoman/Near eastern style cape
His travels.

I think he was a good king and did what was expected of a medieval monarch: raising taxes, trying to placate the nobles and going to war which contrasted with the shortcomings of his predecessor. It was unfortunate that his reign was marred by dissafected, rebellious, and self-interested magnates who at first supported his campaign to take the throne, then turned against him. He was obviously beset with tax raising problems and other issues but tried to use parliament in a constructive way. It's unfortunate that he's gone down as a bad king because of his usurpation which set a precedent - anyone with a claim to the throne, however slight, could do the same. A great account and documentary about a fascinating period of English history!
❤️
Henry IV is a good king.
I tought it was about the french king
Would love to work as a research for free. I'm a post doc research in university in history
I’m currently reading Richard II by Nigel Saul. This bio is part of The Yale series of British Monarchs. They are all excellent and The People Profiles video are a wonderful companion to these books.
Dan Jones did a Richard II episode to close out his "Britain's Bloodiest dynasty" series.
Thanks!
Thank you!
Bowlingbroke?
Why is his wife Joan in the documentary?
Henry IV was a good king .
He sounds like a just king the people s king 🤴
And Scotland wasn't 'a region'.
John of Gaunt was no angel. Read The Age of Wycliff for a full accounting of his plots and corrupting influence.
Henry IV was the goat. If he would have warred in France like his son he would have been more famous
I watched the first 30 min expecting bio info on Henry IV but instead found a detailed picture of the political background for Henry's reign. So I gave up at that point. It would've been nice for the title of the clip to have indicated more clearly the actual content.
I guess they just didn’t have that much to go on, not much was documented of his personal life and relationships, because he was, in his youth, just the son of a Duke.

Consistently Pray for forgiveness, guidance in a good (positive) direction, and for help against evil. Pray to be saved from hell (whatever that may be). Pray for your friends and your family too, it only takes a minute or so/less at a time to pray. Do it and your life will slowly get better, or maybe quickly. It probably just depends on you and the kind of person you are/have been. Don't wait until its too late and you have to suffer the consequences of built up bad karma from immoral acts/unrepented sins. Maybe together we can help make the world a better place by changing ourselves for the better, and changing things around us for the better.
And addressing/thanking the CREATOR, LORD GOD at the beginning and end of your prayers would be a good idea 😊
Or just be my friend if you don't want to say the prayer 😄
I'm trying to help you get right with the LORD🙏
Amen.
You should prostrate yourself if you don't want to do spoken prayer, or do both☺🙏🙏🙏
Bolinbroooooke!
It's broke, not brook.
@@PeopleProfiles the "ooooooo" is to emulate a scream of hatred. Like fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
Right 😳
@@PeopleProfiles He slandered the good Mowbray!
Wish he hadn't burnt people at the stake, though.
Henry messed up when he executed the archbishop. He was not a ordinary citizen. He could have locked him up in the tower and fined him. He was certainly better than Richard II.
I think Henry was a good king
🍻🍺
....wasnt theis Henry the first plantag to bring english language back to the court?
