John Lackland
John Lackland was the King of England from 6th April 1199 until his death (nearly October 1216). He was the worst English King EVER :O !!!
John was the youngest of five sons of King Henry II of England and Eleanor of Aquitaine. Despite following the failed rebellion of his elder brothers between 1173 and 1174, John became Henry's favourite child.
John's brother, Richard I became king in 1189. John was a potential heir to the throne. When Richard was participating in the Third Crusade, John unsuccessfully attempted a rebellion against Richard's royal administrators. Still, when Richard died, John became a king.
During John's reign, England lost the duchy of Normandy. The baronial revolt at the end of John's reign led to the sealing of Magna Carta (something like a constitution). But John hardly ever observed Magna Carta, so the barons made another successful revolution during which John died and another king took care of England ;)
