British Monarchs throughout history<br />

EDWARD V<br />

YORK KING<br />

Interesting facts<br />

• Edward should have inherited the crown at 13 years old<br />

• Edward never actually inherited the crown - his uncle,<br />

Richard, locked him and his brother in the Tower of<br />

London and took the crown from him, going on to<br />

become the infamous Richard III<br />

Question<br />

• Many believed that Richard killed Edward and his<br />

younger brother, but nothing was ever proven. What do<br />

you think? Use research to support your argument<br />
