I wanted to cover this in the next episode of our King John series, however, I didn't expect the reading to take over 10 minutes, so I decided to make the coronation its own video.
As it's a crucially essential and historically significant part of English history.

The Lionheart is probably the most overrated monarch in English history. Dude was a terrible king by almost any measure.
