Henry VI of England

Henry VI of England was a king who ruled during the 15th century, known for his weak leadership and mental health struggles. He ascended to the throne as a child in 1422 but faced challenges from noble factions, leading to power struggles. His reign saw the outbreak of the Wars of the Roses, a series of civil wars between the houses of Lancaster (his family) and York. Henry's inability to govern effectively contributed to the chaos of this period, ultimately leading to his deposition and execution in 1471, while his reign is often viewed as a time of instability in England.
