>be Prince John
>be good boy, the only son not to rebel against his father, the rightful King of England
>your brother, the one who rebelled against your father while you stood by his side, becomes king
>your brother, who just became king, fucks off to kill Saracens instead of managing his kingdom, and raises funds for his by selling off lands and titles willy-fucking-nilly
>he names a goddamn four year old heir to the throne before he leaves
>your brother's chancellor becomes unpopular, so you pick up the slack and start doing the job yourself
>you're all set to become the next king when your brother's archbishop shows up to announce that your brother fucked some literally who while on vacation in Cyprus, completely undermining your right to the throne
>your brother still never comes back, so you reasonably assert that maybe it's time to recognize you as king
>some asshole terrorist with a longbow starts causing trouble in Sherwood Forest
>your brother finally turns up--he's been captured by the goddamn Germans and they're holding him for ransom
>they want three times the annual income for the English Crown in return for him
>you try to focus on forging important alliances with the French
>your brother's posse rebels against you, and start taxing their subjects ridiculous amounts of money in order to pay for your retard brother's ransom
>he gets back, laughs at everything you've done, and calls you a stupid child
>he finally dies and at long last you receive your rightful kingship
>spend the rest of your life trying to compensate for all the land your brother sold off and securing England's borders
>barons revolt and invent a new constitution
>go down in history as England's worst king
>>
You forgot the part where you fucked half the baron's wives and sired a whole brood of bastards.

Also, I'm pretty sure the Robin Hood legends start cropping up in the reign of Henry III, not John.

Don't forget how he was almost never in England. Some historian think he may have only spend six months in the country as an adult.
>>
>>1786913
Im not even a balkan /pol/tard you're just a cancerous faggot
>>
>>1786912
He has been banned 4 times already. He keeps avoiding it and making new trips. He is one dedicated autist

>>
>>1786926
the average parisian cafe owner speaks good english tho he just thinks anglos (specially americans) are too loud
>>
>>1787064
Then he'd just use proxy and we don't even know if he's turkish or not he might be an one autistic american shitposter as well.
>>
I'm from one of the few places in england where King John isn't hated, because we got classifed as a town by him.
>>
>>1787064
Just start a fake Kurdish resistance movement on /pol/ and pretty soon the Turkish government will do it for you.

Richard was a shithead and is criminally overrated. He was also a homosexual.

>The rightful King is away, might as well steal his throne.

>>
>>1790833
Threadly reminder that the best King was a Queen.

Fucked it all up right about there.
That's not wise even for his time. Not safe. Not even profitable. He seemed smart though.

To be fair, it wasn't until the 15th century that English kings spoke English as their first language.
>>
>>1791544
France has always been a fucking boulevard where everyone steps in and out with shit under their boots. It doesn't make it relevant.
I'm not british nor do i blow one every other week end but they stand above shitfrance by nature.
>>
>>1791694
so what are you doing here Nigel
>>
>>1791694
>France has always been a fucking boulevard where everyone steps in and out with shit under their boots

And the last time someone came to rape England, the French shit from under their boots became king of England
>>

See >>1789064
>>1789006
No seriously he was a shit king. It's like that with french people. They come in, fuck it all up backwards then say, "well, it's not french, so it's not good".
English monarchy is like democratic monarchy. French monarchy, while still ongoing, is like... monarchy. French presidents have rights LouisXI never had.
The Queen sits, admires, and nods at the government.

>>1791697
Shitposting. Sorry to all english lads and their colonies.
>>
>>1791754
>No seriously he was a shit king. It's like that with french people. They come in, fuck it all up backwards then say, "well, it's not french, so it's not good".

Kings of England have been French from 1066 to 1485
It was bound to have bad ones in the bunch
>>
>>1791754
>The Queen with capital letters

yeah you're a bong
>>
>>1790845
Victoria barely did anything compared to previous rulers, parliament had all the power by then
>>
>>1791772
They were not french until 1485, stop with this meme
>>
>>1791796

that's kinda the point desu

The epitome of benign neglect, she understood the dynamics well and played her role perfectly
>>
>>1791796
Thank God for it, and for her. >>1791818 hits the nail on the head.
>>
>>1791556
He didn't even speak the most common type of French at the time, he spoke some obscure dialect that was half dead and only got taught it because his tutor thought poetry sounded great in it and he happened to speak it
>>
>>1791867
Wut?
The Pantagenets spoke Angevin French which was basically Parisian French.
Maybe you're talking about the fact he was also fluent in Occitan (the language spoken in Southern France back then)
That's true indeed, but "common French" was still his native language
>>
>>1791556

14th actually, if we're being pedantic.
