Edward VI became King of England and Ireland at the young age of nine after the death of his father, King Henry VIII, having been his only child with his third wife Jane Seymour.

His health began declining in 1552 when he was just 14 years old. In 1553, it became clear Edward was dying.

Scottish Wars of Independence - wallace, murray and scottish resistance
After King Edward I of England took control of Scotland, Scottish resistance increased under the leadership of Andrew Murray and William Wallace. Murray led rebellions in the north of Scotland after escaping English capture, retaking castles like Urquhart. Wallace emerged as a leader after killing the Sheriff of Lanark and began attacking the English with a growing army. He laid siege to Dundee Castle before both he and Murray joined forces and marched toward Stirling to face the advancing English army.
Scottish Wars of Independence - scotland's civil war
The Scottish Civil War began after Robert the Bruce killed John Comyn and took control of Scotland from his supporters. Bruce faced many defeats from 1305-1307 due to fighting against both English forces and Scottish forces loyal to Comyn. By 1308, Bruce had defeated his remaining opponents through military victories and destroying the lands of Comyn supporters. Bruce was then recognized as the rightful King of Scotland. The Scottish Civil War ended in early 1309, leaving Bruce in control of the country as he prepared to challenge English forces.
Scottish Wars of Independence - events after bannockburn
After Scotland's victory at Bannockburn in 1314, King Robert Bruce continued to fight England to achieve full independence for Scotland. This included launching invasions of northern England and Ireland to put pressure on English forces. A key event was the 1320 Declaration of Arbroath, where Scottish nobles affirmed Scotland's independence. This eventually led to the 1328 Treaty of Edinburgh, where England formally recognized Scotland as an independent kingdom under King Robert Bruce.
Scottish Wars of Independence - edward's subjugation of scotland
King Edward of England sent a huge army to defeat Scotland after they sided with France against England. The English army brutally attacked Berwick, killing thousands, and easily defeated the Scots defenders. They then won another decisive victory over the Scots at Dunbar. With the Scots army weakened, Edward was able to march through Scotland, taking control of castles without resistance. He eventually forced King John Balliol to surrender, stripping him of his title. Edward now had full control over Scotland.
Scottish Wars of Independence - battle of stirling bridge
The Battle of Stirling Bridge in 1297 was a major victory for the Scottish army led by William Wallace and Andrew Murray against the larger English force. The Scots ambushed the English as they crossed the narrow bridge over the River Forth, attacking when about a third of the English had crossed and killing or drowning most of them. This victory was enabled by tactical decisions of the Scots like choosing terrain that restricted English cavalry and attacking at the optimal time, as well as mistakes by the English commander like refusing alternative crossing points. After their victory, Wallace and Murray were appointed as Guardians of Scotland.
Norman kings
In 1066, King Edward the Confessor of England died without an heir, leaving the kingdom without a clear successor. Two candidates emerged: Harold Godwinson, the late king's brother-in-law, who claimed Edward named him king on his deathbed; and William, Duke of Normandy, who asserted Edward had promised him the throne and that Harold had sworn to support his claim. This led to conflict over the vacant English throne.
Scottish Wars of Independence - battle of falkirk and continuing resistance
After victory at Stirling Bridge, William Wallace's army was defeated by King Edward I's larger force at the Battle of Falkirk in 1298. The English cavalry flanked the Scottish army, driving off the Scottish cavalry and leaving the infantry formations vulnerable to attacks by English longbowmen. Many Scottish soldiers were killed or fled as a result. After the battle, Wallace resigned as Guardian of Scotland and went into exile, while the English monarch strengthened his control over Scotland in the following years until Wallace was captured and executed in 1305.
