![]() The House of Plantagenet ruled over England for 300 years. Henry VIII is a grandson of Edward IV, but the House of Tudor isn't a cadet branch of the House of Plantagenet like the houses of Lancaster and York). The monarchs of Henry II, Richard I, John, Henry III, Edward I, Edward II, Edward III, Richard II, Henry IV, Henry V, Henry VI, Edward IV, Richard III are the direct line monarchs. The household was founded by Geoffrey Plantagenet (Count of Anjou), a cadet branch of the Angevin empire and through Geoffrey's marriage to Empress Matilda was related to the House of Normandy. I've been going with my idea to create the royal household of the Plantagenet - they're a medieval dynasty who were synonymous with European monarchy during the Middle Ages and especially with the English throne.
