Family pride

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! Lancastrian victory people! Gotta admit, I wasn't expecting that at all. So, last but not least, could it ever so possibly be- family pride.
We have Henry IV's descendants, and Edward III's. As both of the men I just named were not the best of friends, their children were bound to start fighting. Henry was of the House of Lancaster, through John of Gaunt. He had killed the last king, (Richard.) They both had claims to the throne, which continued through their children, Henry's being the Lancastrians and the other branch, descended from Edward IV, being the Yorkists.)
So yeah, there's bound to be history between the two groups, and sometimes the war may have had a deeper meaning to them, which meant they couldn't give up. (That being why it took so long to finish!!!)
Okay, I'm not sure if I got all these facts throughout my posts entirely correct, so please don't penalize me (I'm just a poor peasant, after all!)
Well I hope you enjoyed ma blogging as much as I did, but I'm glad the war's over and I can kick back.
See ya,
Anonymous Yorkist.
