Pack C5 - The Wars of the Roses and the Age of Exploration
The 15th century was a turning point for England and Europe. The two branches of the Plantagenet dynasty, the Lancastrian and the Yorkist, fought themselves to extinction in a Civil War. The death of Richard III opened the way for a new age of royal power under the Tudors. The end of The Hundred Years' War made possible a period of national consolidation and brilliant flowering of French culture. The Ottoman Turks overran the Middle East and the Italian trade empires were compelled to look for new routes to Asia. The Renaissance flooded out of Italy.
