Richard III ruled England from 1483 until his death in 1485, marking the end of the Plantagenet dynasty. As Duke of Gloucester, he was actively involved in governing northern England and even led a military campaign into Scotland. Following his brother’s death, Richard was appointed Lord Protector and later declared king after claiming his nephew was illegitimate. His reign was marred by rebellions, notably the one led by Henry Tudor, culminating in Richard’s defeat and death at the Battle of Bosworth Field.
