Welcome to Intelligence Squad. Where great minds meet. I'm producer Mia Sorrenti. Between 1199 and 1399, English politics was high drama. These two centuries witnessed savage political bloodletting, including civil war, deposition, the murder of kings, and the ruthless execution of rebel lords.
As well as international warfare, devastating national pandemic, economic crises, and the first major peasant uprising in English history.
