Eadwig

Eadwig was an English king who ruled from 955 to 959 AD, known for being young and energetic. His reign was marked by conflicts with nobles and religious leaders, which led to instability. Eadwig's inability to maintain strong control made him unpopular, and his rule ended when he was forced to step down. His brief reign was significant for its turbulence during a time of ongoing political and religious change in early medieval England.
