About this listen
In the chaos that followed the death of King Henry I, England descended into civil war as rival claimants fought for the throne. From this turmoil emerged Henry II, whose claim, alliances, and marriage to Eleanor of Aquitaine helped lay the foundations of the powerful Plantagenet dynasty.
Blending Norman strength with Angevin ambition, the new royal house would soon command a vast realm across England and France, reshaping the balance of power in medieval Europe.
