King Henry v ( Henry the fifth) was born 9th August 1386 and died on the 31st August 1422. Henry v was a man who ruled for approximately 9 years and was the second English monarch who came from the house of Lancaster. The house of Lancaster is the successor in the male linetrack individualized by a label. Henry was sometimes called Henry of Monmouth due to where he was born(the tower above the gatehouse Monmouth castle,Monmouth,principality of Wales).

King Henry V married Catherine of Valois ,daughter of Charles vi of France ,from 1420-1422! then that gave birth to a man called Henry VI of England.

Accession to the throne

After Henry IV died on the 20th march, 1413, Henry V was crowned 9th April 1413 at Westminster Abbey,London, United kingdom.Henry was set out to have been a very tall man,slightly slender,with inky- toned hair tied up with a ring and it was clearclean-shaven!On Henry’s coronation day the weather was not pleasant and the people were unsure if he was a good Owen.

Death and burial

King Henry V Died August 31st 1422 in Château de Vincennes, Vincennes,France and was Buried in Westminster Abbey,London,United Kingdom.Well, it all started when Henry felt swelling and other sources of reaction in his stomach and that was when they knew he had Amoebic Dysentery.It is usually caused by infection with the Entamoeba histolytica amoaba (intestinal infection which kills 50 million people world wide and universally!

Family and life

Henry had just a few family members which are Henry VI of England(son),Henry IV of England (father),Edward III of England (great grandfather),Catherine of Valois (spouse),John of Gaunt (grandfather) and John of Lancaster,first duke of Bedford ,(brother).His religion was Roman Catholicism the branch of Christianity managed by the pope.Henry’s first battle before he was king was against the English people!At Shrewsbury on 21st July 1403 Henry the prince of wales lined-up supporting his father to face the forces (heavy and fast) against Henry Percy which lived for a couple of years.

In my opinion i think that Henry V was a great leader. He was responsible enough to rule he was a very smart and lucky king!until his death.
